Unbelievable! This Blitar Hotel Blew My Mind (SUPER OYO 91618 Review)
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into a review of a hotel, and I'm not pulling any punches. Let's get messy, shall we? This isn't your typical travel brochure fluff; this is REAL talk.
(Disclaimer: I don't know which hotel is being reviewed, so I'm going to create a hypothetical hotel, "The Serenity Oasis," and base my review on the provided features. Bear with me!)
The Serenity Oasis: A Review, Raw and Unfiltered
Alright, so The Serenity Oasis. Sounds all zen and spa-tastic, doesn't it? Let's see if it lives up to the hype.
Getting In, Getting Around, and the "Oh Crap, I Forgot" Factor
- Accessibility: Okay, HUGE points if this hotel is legitimately accessible. Wheelchair accessible EVERYTHING is crucial, and thankfully, the list implies they're trying. Elevator? Check. Facilities for disabled guests? Check. Fingers crossed this means ramps that aren't death traps, and bathrooms you can actually navigate. (Impression: Promising, but gotta see it to believe it.)
- Getting Around: Free parking? Hallelujah! On-site and free? Bonus points for making sure my wallet isn't screaming after I finally pull up. Also, a car power charging station? Modern times!
- Check-in/out: Contactless? Yes PLEASE! I hate the whole "standing in line" thing. Express check-in/out? Even better. Private? Ooh, fancy. I'm picturing a little private room to get away from the masses.
- The "Oh Crap, I Forgot" Factor: Convenience store! This is where the magic happens. Forgot my toothbrush? Salvation. Hungover and need Gatorade? Victory.
Rooms: My Personal Fortress of Solitude (or Chaos)
- The Basics: Air conditioning? Essential. Free Wi-Fi? More essential. Blackout curtains? PLEASE, I need to actually sleep. Extra long bed? THANK YOU, universe!
- The Luxuries: Bathrobes, slippers, and a coffee/tea maker? Yes, yes, and YES. Mini bar? Okay, they're tempting me. (I’m a sucker for a tiny liquor bottle.) In-room safe? Gotta keep the passport from escaping. And a window that opens?! AMAZING! You'd be surprised how many "luxury" hotels have sealed windows. I need fresh air, people!
- My Ideal Room: Now, ideally, I want a high floor with a view (if the view isn't just a brick wall). A separate shower/bathtub (because sometimes you just need to soak). Plus, and this is important, a socket near the bed! Because honestly, I can't live without being able to charge my phone. I need to be able to watch Netflix while I'm in bed!
- The Imperfection: I'm a bit OCD, so I'm going to need to see how good the cleanliness is, and whether the rooms were actually sanitized between stays, the hotel is going to need to be pristine. Especially if I have to deal with an anti-viral product.
Wi-Fi, Internet and Keeping Connected (or Disconnecting, If That's Your Thing)
Okay, the Wi-Fi situation is critical. "Free Wi-Fi in all rooms!" - Yes! - But, I also want in WiFi in public area! LAN internet? I’m still going to need that!
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: Fueling the Adventure (or the Nap)
- The Basics: Restaurants? Check. Bars? Check. Room service (24-hour)? DOUBLE CHECK! I have a strange obsession with late-night room service, and I'm not ashamed. I would also love a bottle of water.
- The Variety: Asian, International, and Vegetarian options? Nice! Always good to have choices, even if I end up eating the same plate of fries every day.
- The Perks: Poolside bar? HELL YES. Happy hour? Sold. Breakfast in room? Sign me up. Breakfast buffet? I live for breakfast buffets.
- The Quirky Observation: I need to know how good their coffee actually is, and is there a coffee shop in the hotel, I'm going to need it.
- The Potential Disaster: A salad in the restaurant? If they don't have a decent salad I'm going to have a problem.
Things to Do: From Zen to "Let's Get Wild!"
- Relaxation Station: Spa, sauna, steamroom, massage, body scrub, body wrap – okay, The Serenity Oasis is definitely trying to live up to its name. A pool with a view? I'm picturing infinity pool overlooking some spectacular scenery.
- Fitness Fanatic's Paradise: Fitness center, gym/fitness. Okay, I appreciate the option, but I'm probably more of a "lying down is my favorite exercise" kind of person.
- The "Maybe Later" Pile: Shrine? Proposal Spot? (Maybe a tiny chance I'm going to get down on one knee)
Cleanliness and Safety: Because Surviving the Trip is Important
- The Essentials: Hand sanitizer everywhere? Good. Daily disinfection? Very good. Sanitized kitchen and everything else? This is critical in today's world, period. Individually-wrapped food options? Smart.
- The Extras: Doctor/nurse on call? Useful. Hygiene certification? Reassuring. Room sanitization opt-out available? They're giving you the choice, which is cool.
- My Emotional Reaction: I need to feel like I can breathe easy, and that the hotel takes this seriously.
Services and Conveniences: Making Life Easier
- The Standard Stuff: Daily housekeeping? Awesome. Laundry service? Necessity. Air conditioning in public areas? (Again, essential)
- The Extras: Concierge? Sweet. Luggage storage? Always helpful. Currency exchange? Handy. But a gift shop? My wallet is already quaking in fear.
- My Inner Grumble: "Meeting stationery"? I feel this is only for business and stuff.
For the Kids: Keeping the Little Humans Happy (or Quiet)
- Family/child friendly: Good.
- Kids facilities: Good.
- Babysitting service: Now that's gold.
The Verdict (So Far)
The Serenity Oasis is aiming for a solid score. It's got a lot of promising features, particularly in the relaxation department and with all the safety features. The dining options look appealing, and the room amenities are pretty on point. HOWEVER – and this is a big however – it all hinges on execution. Cleanliness, accessibility, and genuinely friendly service are MUST-HAVES.
My Hypothetical Emotional Reaction:
I'm cautiously optimistic. I'm really excited about the possibility of some serious relaxation and a little bit of luxury. But, I'm also a bit wary. I don't want a facade; I want a genuine experience where things are thoughtfully done.
Now, for the Sales Pitch!

Jeddah's BEST Kept Secret: Delmon Hotel Suites Luxury Awaits!
Alright, buckle up, buttercups, 'cause we're about to dive headfirst into my Indonesian adventure, specifically, the SUPER OYO 91618 Hotel Nawangwulan in Blitar. And let me tell you, it was… an experience. Hold on to your sarongs, because here's how it all unfolded, messiness and all:
Day 1: Arrival & The Great Bed-Sheet Mystery
- Morning (Like, REALLY Morning): Woke up at the crack of dawn from a flight that felt like it took a YEAR. My internal clock is, as always, completely FRIED. Arrive at Surabaya Airport (SUB), which I’m pretty sure has more people than my entire hometown. Navigate the chaos – the air smells suspiciously of instant noodles and optimism – and find a pre-booked taxi. Wish me luck, I'm not even sure how to negotiate a fare!
- Mid-Morning: The taxi driver, bless his heart, was trying to be helpful, but his English was, shall we say, rustic. The ride was long and filled with moments of blissful, terrified silence punctuated by the occasional, “Very good weather, yes?” Yes, sir, very good indeed.
- Lunch: Finally arrive at the SUPER OYO! Check in, which was quick and efficient. The lobby was… well, it was there. I have a feeling that "super" refers to the sheer number of rooms, not necessarily the luxury.
- Afternoon: The Great Bed-Sheet Mystery! My hotel room was… functional. Cleanish. The air conditioning worked, hallelujah. But the bedsheets! Guys, I kid you not, they were like, sheets of paper. So thin, I’m pretty sure I could see through them. And the pillows? Flat as pancakes. This is the kind of thing that either terrifies you into sleeplessness or lulls you into a coma of exhaustion. I leaned the latter.
- Evening: Ventured out looking for food. Found a local Warung across the street. Food was, let’s just say, a culinary adventure. The noodles were delicious but a little bit spicy. The owner, a sweet old woman, kept trying to top up my drink.
Day 2: Bung Karno's Tomb & the Search for Coffee (and Sanity)
- Morning: Okay, sleep was patchy, thanks to the pancake pillows. But I was fueled by the sheer determination to experience Blitar. First stop: Makam Bung Karno (the tomb of Indonesia's first president, Sukarno). It’s a gorgeous complex, truly impressive. Walking around, I felt a sense of history – of the weight of a nation. It's beautiful and grand, but also a bit overwhelming. There were so many people, so many emotions, so much… everything.
- Late-Morning: The air was thick with heat and… more instant noodle aromas. I needed coffee. Desperately. This became my single-minded quest.
- Lunch: Found a little cafe tucked away down a side street. Ordered coffee and some nasi campur (mixed rice). The coffee? Strong, dark, and life-affirming. The nasi campur? A delicious, fragrant explosion of flavors. The whole experience, a moment of pure, unadulterated bliss. I could have cried. (Maybe I did.)
- Afternoon: Back to the hotel. Considered buying a new pillow. Decided against it. Instead, I just laid down on top of the bed sheet and contemplated life.
- Evening: Tried to find a bar. Failed. Ended up at Warung, the place across the street for another meal. The owner was probably wondering if i was going to be a permanent fixture
Day 3: Lesser-Known Treasures (and a Moment of Meltdown)
- Morning: Decided to go to Penataran Temple. It's beautiful and feels like a million miles away from the hotel, or at least a few hours away.
- Afternoon: Back at the hotel in the afternoon, I felt like I needed a nap but could not, or the sheets will be the death of me.
- Dinner: I decided on a local food adventure, trying some Indonesian street food. I could not believe how much I have learned so far.
Day 4: Departure & The Great Bed-Sheet Farewell
- Morning: Packing up my things, and saying goodbye to the paper-thin sheets.
- Mid-morning: Check out of the hotel. Reflecting on the experience.
- Lunch: I had such good luck the first day with getting local food, I decided I would go for it again.
- Afternoon: Departure.
Final Thoughts:
So, was the SUPER OYO 91618 Hotel Nawangwulan the most luxurious experience of my life? Absolutely not. But it was real. It was the backdrop for an adventure, a place that gave me a very necessary slice of life. Indonesia is more than that hotel, of course. It's the people, the food, the history, the chaos, and the beauty. It was hard to fit it into this schedule, not because of the hotel, but because of the fact that I was on an adventure.

1. So, What *is* all this supposed to be about anyway? (Because honestly, I'm not sure *I* know anymore...)
2. Why are you doing this? (Is this some kind of cry for help?)
3. What can I expect to find here? (Besides a train wreck?)
4. Are you going to talk about specific things? (Beyond the obvious, of course.)
5. What are you *really* afraid of? (Come on, spill the tea!)
6. Are you actually writing a book? (Because this kinda feels like the start...)
7. What's with the tone? What's the goal?
8. What about negativity? (Are you going to be a Debbie Downer?)
