A nice menu with enough to try out during my stay - There are shops selling art made by local artisans, including incredibly high quality hand drawn batik, clothes and unique souvenirs - People are so friendly at the hotel (and in Solo too!) and always have fantastic recommendations for what to see in the city - Location; less than 20 minutes walk to Palaces Mankunegaran and Kasunanan (Kasunanan is a difficult route, so I recommend taking transport to this one)...a short walk to Kampung Batik Kauman and the Antique Markets - Safe for solo travellers, especially the close proximity to many of the city's main attractions - Great extra amenities (like the pool, massages etc.) which unfortunately I didn't get time to try - Bottles of water provided and refreshed in the room every day - Very clean room, antique decor, comfortable bed
