Unbelievable! This Surabaya Glass House Will Blow Your Mind (SUPER OYO 90606)
Okay, buckle up, because we're diving HEADFIRST into Unbelievable! This Surabaya Glass House Will Blow Your Mind (SUPER OYO 90606). And let me tell you, from what I've dug up (because, let's be real, I haven't lived in every hotel on Earth), it's a real mixed bag. Forget the slick, corporate reviews. This is the REAL deal.
First Impressions: The Glass House Gimmick? (And Other Questions…)
Look, "Glass House" is a bold claim. I REALLY hope it's not just a glorified greenhouse. So, right off the bat, we're talking about visuals. That's everything, right? The photos are… well, they're professionally done, which means absolutely nothing until you actually see the place. Let's be real, a beautifully lit photo can hide a multitude of sins, like a dodgy drain or a suspiciously stained carpet. If they are using Anti-viral cleaning products, the room is sanitized between stays, AND offer the opt-out, that should give me a bit of peace of mind.
Accessibility: Can Grandma Get Up There?
This place really needs to nail accessibility. Things get tricky around here. So, Facilities for disabled guests, Wheelchair accessible is critical. Elevator? Essential! I really hope this is well-done because I hate hotels that pay lip service to accessibility. I want to know if the paths are wide enough, if the bathrooms are actually usable for someone with mobility issues. Details! Important details.
Amenities and What They Actually Mean:
Okay, let's wade through the list of amenities and what they really translate to.
Wi-Fi in all rooms! Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! Internet! Internet [LAN]! Internet services! Wi-Fi in public areas! Okay, OYO, we get it. You have the internet. The real question is, how good is it? Because a weak signal is the bane of my existence. I need to be able to stream Netflix in bed, people! And work sometimes!
Things to do, ways to relax: Hmm… this is where it gets interesting.
- Body scrub, Body wrap: Now that sounds like something, at least in theory. Are we talking spa-level good, or "some lady with a bucket of salt and a vague promise of relaxation" good? We need more context here.
- Fitness center, Gym/fitness: Good for those folks. Me? I'm pretty sure I'd visit the gym if they had a bar in it.
- Foot bath, Massage, Pool with view, Sauna, Spa, Spa/sauna, Steamroom, Swimming pool, Swimming pool [outdoor]: Okay, now we're talking. Outdoor pool with a view? Sign me up! (Assuming the view is good. Don't want to stare at a parking lot.) The spa is a make-or-break situation, though. Bad spa: a waste of money. Good spa: pure heaven.
Dining, drinking, and snacking: This is crucial.
- Restaurants: I am super picky. I don't want to eat at the same restaurant over and over again. I'd love to know if the Asian cuisine in restaurant, Asian breakfast, International cuisine in restaurant, Vegetarian restaurant, Western cuisine in restaurant, Western breakfast are any good!
- Breakfast [buffet], Breakfast in room, Breakfast takeaway service: I love a good hotel breakfast. I live for it. I want fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and mountains of pastries. Ideally.
- Bar, Poolside bar, Coffee shop: Happy hour?! A must. Poolside bar is very important as well. The option of a coffee shop is also very important.
Cleanliness and Safety: The Big Scary Stuff
Alright, let's get real. This is where the rubber meets the road, especially these days.
- Anti-viral cleaning products, Daily disinfection in common areas, Doctor/nurse on call, First aid kit, Hand sanitizer: Excellent. Shows they're taking things seriously.
- Hygiene certification: Good to hear.
- Individually-wrapped food options, Safe dining setup, Sanitized kitchen and tableware items: Necessary in this day and age.
- Staff trained in safety protocol: Crucial.
- Rooms sanitized between stays: HUGE.
- CCTV in common areas, CCTV outside property: Peace of mind.
The Nitty-Gritty: What Does Your Room ACTUALLY Come With?
Okay, let's get down to the essentials of the rooms available.
- Air conditioning Essential. I cannot sleep in a hot room.
- Additional toilet Always a plus if you're sharing with someone.
- Alarm clock I'm old-school, I enjoy this.
- Bathrobes, Slippers: Nice touch.
- Bathtub, Separate shower/bathtub Very important.
- Blackout curtains Important.
- Free bottled water I prefer this.
- Hair dryer Very important.
- In-room safe box: Good for peace of mind.
- Ironing facilities: Useful but mostly unused by me.
- Mini bar: Delightful.
- Non-smoking, Soundproofing: More brownie points.
- Tea/coffee maker I'm a coffee addict, so yes please.
- Wake-up service Needed sometimes!
Services and Conveniences: The Perks That Make Life Easier
- Cash withdrawal, Concierge, Contactless check-in/out: Good.
- Laundry service, Dry cleaning, Ironing service: Sometimes really needed, at least for me.
- Elevator: Essential for accessibility.
- Luggage storage: Excellent.
- Front desk [24-hour]: Required.
- Currency exchange: Useful in certain situations.
- Car park [free of charge], Car park [on-site], Valet parking: Awesome.
- Airport transfer, Taxi service: Makes life much easier.
For the Kids: Babysitting Service… Do They Actually Have It?
Okay, I'm not a parent, but I've seen the horrors of traveling with kids. So, Babysitting service - is it real? Is it any good? Family/child friendly? Okay, that's good. Kids meal? Great. But how does it really play out?
My Unabashedly Opinionated Outlook: It's About the VIBE
Look, I'm trying to get a feel for the vibe here. Is this a place where you can truly relax? Or is it a clinical, sterile experience? Is it a place to party? Or is it a place to truly unwind?
There is a Meeting/banquet facilities, Meeting stationery, and Indoor/Outdoor venue for special events, Seminars, Xerox/fax in business center, this means there will be business types as well.
The Big Question: Would I Stay Here?
Honestly? Based on the information I have so far, it's a maybe.
- Potential Upsides: The pool with a view. The spa (IF it's good). The "Glass House" concept (IF it's actually cool and not just a gimmick).
- Things That Worry Me: How good is the internet really? The quality of the restaurant. The accessibility details.
Final Verdict (Tentative):
I'd need more specifics. I'd want to see more actual photos, not just the professionally-shot ones. I'd want to read some REAL reviews (not just the ones the hotel cherry-picks.)
My Offer: The "Escape the Ordinary" Getaway Package!
Okay, my friends, here's a special offer if this hotel ends up being as good as it could be.

Osaka's Hidden Gem: ESLEAD HOTEL Tsuruhashi - Unbelievable Luxury!
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into a Surabaya adventure, staying at the… ahem… Super OYO 90606 Glass House Citraland. Let's be brutally honest, the name alone sounds like something conjured up in a fever dream. But hey, cheap and cheerful, right? Right?! Here's my attempt at a schedule, but let’s be real, spontaneity is my middle name (or at least, "slightly-disorganized-but-optimistic-wanderer" is).
Surabaya Stumble-Through: A Messy Itinerary
Day 1: Arrival and Mild Panic
- Morning (ish): Landed at Juanda International Airport. Already sweating. It's not just the humidity, it's the "Did I pack enough sunscreen?" panic. Found a taxi (negotiating the price felt like a bloodsport) and headed to the glorious Glass House. My expectations? Low. I'm a budget traveler. My reality? Probably lower.
- Afternoon: Check-in. The lobby… well, let’s just say it has character. Or perhaps, "character" is the kindest word available. The room. Okay. It's… clean-ish. The "glass house" aspect? More like "a couple of windows." But hey, at this price, I'll take it! Dumped my bag and immediately regretted not packing a proper mosquito net. This is going to be fun.
- Afternoon (Part 2): Okay, food. Need food. Found a warung (local eatery) nearby, a riot of smells and what I hoped was deliciousness. Ordered nasi goreng (fried rice). It was, and I say this without hyperbole, life-affirming. So good. So cheap. Instantly felt slightly less pessimistic about this whole Surabaya thing.
- Evening: Wandered around Citraland. It's… well, it’s Citraland. Not exactly the cultural heart of Indonesia, but people-watching is always a sport. The sheer number of scooters whizzing by is incredible. I swear, they're like a swarm of angry bees. Started practicing my best "hati-hati!" (be careful!) – which probably sounds like a strangled bird. Dinner at a street vendor - more deliciousness. Feeling good. Feeling very, very full.
Day 2: Culture Shock and Culinary Delights
- Morning: Attempted to utilize public transportation. This involved a bajaj (motorized rickshaw, aka "death trap on wheels") experience that left me questioning my life choices. The driver spoke no English. I spoke approximately zero Bahasa Indonesia. We somehow communicated with hand gestures and sheer willpower. Made it to House of Sampoerna, a cigarette museum! Weird, I know. But actually fascinating, even if the smell of stale tobacco lingered in the air. The colonial architecture was gorgeous. It felt like actually being in a place, and not just… well, existing.
- Mid-day: Lunch. Oh, the lunch! I found a tiny warung serving rawon, a black beef soup. Dark, rich, and complex, like a good novel. I got a big bowl with rice, and a side of spicy sambal. The sweat really started rolling. And the pure joy on my face when I ate it? Priceless. I needed a moment to sit and recover.
- Afternoon: Now, here's where things get messy. Supposed to go to the Tugu Pahlawan (Heroes Monument), but spent three hours attempting (and failing) to navigate the Surabaya Plaza. Got totally lost. Bought a questionable plastic trinket. Ended up hiding in a cafe recovering from the sensory overload of a million flashing lights.
- Evening: Determined to experience nightlife, even though I’m an introvert disguised as an adventurous traveler. Found a local angkringan (food cart) near the hotel. More street food! More deliciousness! More friendly faces. Fell into conversation with a group of locals. They laughed at my atrocious Bahasa. I laughed at their excellent English… and at myself. The bonds of humanity, built over shared plates of food and, let's be honest, a few beers from the mini-mart.
Day 3: Tears, Temples, and the (Almost) Perfect Goodbye
- Morning: Started strong! Visiting the Cheng Hoo Mosque. It was lovely, peaceful, and honestly, it was a respite from the constant noise. The intricate architecture makes you want just to stop and stare.
- Afternoon: Trying to find balance. This afternoon was meant for markets, but the scorching heat was doing me in. So instead, I went back to the delicious warung from Day 2, and ordered the same rawon I'd had the day before. It was just as exquisite. It's funny because there really is no better way to spend an afternoon.
- Evening: Packing. Sigh. It's always the worst part, right? Had a quick final walk to the warung to order some more food. Said goodbye to my newfound food-family. Got a tear in my eye, okay? This place… it was starting to feel like home. I'm not one for grand pronouncements, but god, the food.
- Night-Time/ Departure: Headed to the airport, and got a taxi (yep, negotiated, not as bad this time). Looked back at the city. I was sad to go. Surabaya, you messy, chaotic, delicious, and utterly endearing place. I'll be back. Maybe next time I will learn some Bahasa. Maybe not, it might be more entertaining for everyone if I don't.
Final Thoughts:
This itinerary is a suggestion, a guideline, more of an unravelling than a plan. Expect delays. Expect to get lost. Expect to sweat. Embrace the chaos. Surabaya, despite its imperfections, is a feast for the senses and the soul. Bring an open mind, an empty stomach, and a willingness to laugh at yourself (and at me, if you happen to spot me!). And remember to pack mosquito repellent. Seriously. Pack it.

So, like, what *is* this FAQ even *about*? And why am I even *here*?
Honestly? Beats the heck outta me sometimes. It's meant to be an FAQ, you know, Frequently Asked Questions. About… life, the universe, and everything, maybe. Or maybe just about my overflowing laundry basket. It's all a bit fluid, like my coffee in the morning. You're here because… well, maybe you're bored. Maybe you clicked a link. Maybe the internet gods decided you needed a dose of pure, unadulterated random. Buckle Up!
What's the deal with the whole 'schema' thing? Sounds… complicated.
Complicated? Honey, you have no idea. Schema.org… It's like, a secret coded language for computers to understand websites. Think of it as a super-duper detailed instruction manual. This FAQ is supposed to be *organized* properly, so Google and other search engines can easily get all the info. But secretly? It's a vehicle for my madness. So, sorry, Google!
Alright, alright. Let's get down to brass tacks. What's the *worst* thing about... well, *anything*?
Oh, the *worst* thing? Okay, let me think... It's gotta be waiting. And I'm not just talking about in line at the grocery store. I’m talking about waiting for the damn email to arrive confirming that job that I applied for. I swear that waiting is the bane of my existence. You know, the kind where you're refreshing your inbox every five seconds, the hope slowly withering like a neglected houseplant? The *anticipation* is brutal. I got the idea after waiting for weeks for a diagnosis and it was the worst because it made me feel like I was wasting my time, being bored and going nowhere. I got the feeling from the movie "Waiting."
Okay, okay. Something *good* then? What's something you actually *enjoy*?
Ooh, good question! This is gonna sound ridiculously cliché, but… sunshine. Just that warm, golden glow on your face, the way it makes the world look… brighter. I *love* it! I had this experience when I was with my friends in the beach. It was just a normal day, but the sunlight hit my face and I felt so good about it. You know, that initial burst of euphoria? It’s like a tiny, perfectly formed vacation every single time. It's something I never want to take for granted again. Though, I do tend to burn pretty easily, so… sunscreen is a must!
What's your biggest fear? Don't be shy.
Alright. No judgment. Losing the people I love, obviously. But beyond that? It's probably… the *idea* of missing out. FOMO, you know? It's like, all these amazing things are happening *right now*, and if I'm not there, I'm… missing them. It's silly, I know. Like, logically I *know* the world will continue spinning even if I'm not at that concert, or that party. But the nagging, gnawing worry that I'm not experiencing *everything*? It's exhausting. I was like that in college, always needing to do *all* the things. Honestly, it led to a lot of burnt toast and questionable decisions. And some fantastic memories, too, I guess. See? It's messy.
Do you *really* like this whole FAQ thing? Be honest.
Heck, yeah! *Sometimes* I like it. It's therapeutic, actually. A way to get my thoughts out in some semblance of order. It’s like talking to a friend, or maybe, more accurately, it’s like ranting to a friend who’s obligated to listen because they’re stuck in a digital document. And sometimes, it's just a fun exercise in rambling and seeing where the words take me. Right now? I’m loving it. Though ask me again in, say, five hours, and I might be cursing it. But for now... yes!
What's your favorite food? Don't hold back!
Oh, this is a dangerous question. Because once I start, I won't stop. I love food! But if I *had* to pick? Pizza. Specifically, a really good, New York-style pizza. Thin crust, perfect balance of sauce and cheese, a slight char on the bottom… *chef's kiss*! I remember this time, when I had a whole pizza to myself. I probably should've ordered a small pizza, but I ended up finishing a large. I felt so good, but also a little bit guilty. It was the best and worst meal ever.
What's the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to you? Spill the tea!
Ugh. Okay, fine. This is *mortifying*. It was in college. I was head over heels in love with this guy, and completely convinced he felt the same. So, I decided to… (deep breath)… write him a poem. Oh, it was *awful*. Rhyming couplets, overly dramatic adjectives, the whole shebang. I, in the ultimate act of self-sabotage, decided to *read it to him* at a party. In front of a bunch of people. The look on his face? Pure, unadulterated horror. He’d probably already forgotten about it, thank goodness, but I'll never forget. I’m pretty sure my face turned the color of a tomato. It was so bad, it's actually kind of funny now. I was an idiot. A lovesick, poetry-spouting idiot. The kind of story you tell at parties once you're confident you can handle the laughter.
If you could have any superpower, what would it be? And don't say flying!
