favehotel Langko Mataram - Lombok

Excellent place, stayed there for 5 or 6 nights during a conference in Mataram, Lombok. Really friendly staff, excellent rooms (deluxe room), good room service and desk help in the lobby. Would recommend it to everyone.

As soon as I got to my room I saw that the 3 in 1 soap dispenser was nearly empty, so I requested that they fill it up. They came to the room and told me they filled it, but they actually didn't, and half way through my shower I ran out of soap. The floor had many black hairs on it, and since my hair is not black, it means that the hair was from previous guests or staff, so the room was dirty and unsanitary. The rooms are non-smoking, but in the foyer of each floor they have ashtrays and invite guests to smoke there, which defeats the purpose of having non-smoking rooms since the smoke from the foyer permeates every room on the floor. This was a very bad stay and definitely does not make Aston and the fave hotel brand look good.

Over all good

Location is easy access within Mataram city by taxi or Grab. The table in the room is too small to accomodate a laptop or a few books. Lighting is not bright, difficult to read a book in the room

The Indonesian people are peaceful and welcoming community. Felt at home.

I can’t really adequately stress how great of a deal this hotel is. I initially booked it because of it’s close proximity to the immigration office in Mataram. I had low expectations, as it is described as a “budget hotel”. However, everything from the extremely friendly staff, to the cleanliness of the rooms, the movie channels on the tv, to the food, kept surprising me. I needed copies made for my visa extension paperwork...no problem. Changes to a pizza, (another steal at 58k), delivered to the room...no problem. Need a private car to Kuta, an hour away...no problem, let us call our driver. The breakfast buffet was phenomenal, with an member of the staff running an omelet bar in addition to all of the other food offered (fruits, toast, three kinds of jam, tea, coffee, juices, cereal, soup, traditional Indonesian foods like Nasi Goring, fried rice, spicy chicken, etc). I honestly can’t think of anything the staff or hotel could have done better. This hotel is a gem of a deal for what you get, and when I go back in a few days to get my passport I will stay there again without hesitation.
