Great location—very close to the airport, which was super convenient. The room was clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. However, the room facing the street was quite noisy, which made it a bit difficult to relax at times. Overall, a good stay, but I’d recommend requesting a room away from the street for a quieter experience.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was mostly indonesian plus eggs to order. Hotel clean, room confortable but my room faced the main road and was noisier than any other room i have ever been in. Ear plugs helped. Bed was comfy. They could add washcloths.

Most other hotels have very full breakfasts, but the FavHotel is below average. The facility is fine, but not well kept up. Sorong is hard to find a good hotel, so if its just to stay the night and move on, this is as good as any other.

The staff are excellent. The location is excellent. 2 minute drive from the airport. However, the room service is limited and must be paid in cash. There are no ATMs around so you must bring cash with you. The shower heads spray everywhere so your bathroom will get wet. There were ants in the room. Good for a night but nothing longer.

Bedroom was super warm, and airco only functioning when you're inside and you use your card key to turn it, and the electricity, on. So you have to boil for over an hour before it becomes to be an acceptable temperature. They only gave us one key which is always a challenge to get in and out the elevator/bedroom we you're two guests. It's located on a busy road, so ask for a bedroom on the back. Breakfast was fine, with all kind of Asian dishes but also the possibility to get eggs the way you like them, some toasts and pastries, and fresh fruits. Shower had no door and was pretty small. So it made it difficult not to soak the complete bathroom floor. It made the trick for one night coming back from a live aboard before to fly back to Jakarta.

I would never return to this property. Period.

First problem .. they were supposed to have transport at the airport. I messaged them stating all arrival details. At the airport we walked down the lines looking for our shuttle. on the second trip we were asked who we were looking for and a fellow spoke up that it was him. $ later and dropped in the boonies at the wrong hotel we realized we were scammed.

Second...When we finally arrived at the hotel we were told our rooms were not yet available. We later got one of our two \"non-smoking superior twin double rooms\" and waited for the second. After hours we went down and the desk agent had no idea we had booked 2 rooms. When they (now 2) finally recovered our booking they tried to give us a smoking room. When we declined we were forced to purchase a 2 single rooms at additional regular cost. When I questioned this they admitted it was their own error but ... too bad, pay for 3 rooms or take the smoking room. $$ out of my pocket!!!! CB (Chico, Ca)

Clean and basic hotel. The towels were a bit worn down. The bed was comfortable. It is off of a busy street, so expect some noise. It was OK for an overnight and is close to the airport. I went to the restaurant for dinner because the nearby local restaurant (with great ratings on tripadvisor) was closed. The two things I wanted, they did not have available. With that said, the dish I finally received was nice - grilled fish. I appreciated the cleanliness though.

Our room was clearly not cleaned - when we walked in we saw there was hair all over the floor, toothpaste on the backsplash in the bathroom, soap on the walls of the shower and stains on the sheets and pillows. Fairly sure they just made up the bed without changing the sheets -yuck. Someone tried (repeatedly) to get into our room at night. The construction of the rooms seems paper-thin - our room was noisy from the TV next door, and street noise was also quite loud. All in all, a very unpleasant stay. The front desk staff was nice and helpful though.

Good comfortable budget option

I would recommend this as a place to stay in Sorong for travelers. While it is a budget hotel, it does have a restaurant and room service (where you might need to call back if they don't answer the first time you call). The breakfast buffet as others have noted is mostly Indonesian foods, however there is an omelet station outside on the \"patio\" of the restaurant which can make you whatever eggs you want--you need to look for it as there really aren't staff or notices that it is available. Rooms also don't have hair dryers--didn't ask at the front desk whether they had them to loan or not. Yes, all taxis to the airport cost 100,000 IDRs even though it is only a 5 minute drive. If you want to schlep your bags, have at it. There is a good restaurant a couple of doors down in case you want to venture out, but Sorong isn't know for good walking about options. Room was very comfortable, mine was in the back so didn't have street noise. TV actually had some English language channels. Wi-fi was great.

The hotel is new, modern with a good buffet breakfast. There are very few amenities in the room (no tissues and only 1 soap dispenser), 2 towels - meaning very basic

Nice little hotel for a stop over

+ Close to the airport and 5min walk to a Saga supermarket and KFC etc
- Far from main town of Sorong and amenities are not as great
+ Clean and comfortable room
- Water pressure was funny (my room was on 6th floor), water went from hot to cold every 3-5 seconds, and when it's hot it's scalding hot (even with tap turned completely to cold)
- This seems to be a theme in Sorong but there is no door for the shower cubicle, so water splashes everywhere within the bathroom
- Breakfast and dinner buffet had pretty poor selection

Very good stay - pre-dive trip

We just had 1 night stay before a dive trip. It's close to the Mega store if you need something - about 8 min walk. You can take yellow shared taxi for 5000 IDR to anywhere on the H line which is the road in front of the hotel. Staff was super nice and accommodated a quick turn around for laundry and held our bag until after the trip. Restaurant breakfast was included and good. Small clean simple room and bath.

The hotel was lovely-beautiful conditions and the food was great too. Breakfast was lovely and the staff were always pleasant. I found the bed a bit too hard for me but generally people will love it. Aircon and bathroom was in beautiful and clean condition to me...we had 4 rooms but the king beds comfortably fit my 3 girls who are medium large lol
