Bobocabin is quite good for a stay and easily accessible. Even though there was a flood disaster in Medan City, we still went ahead with our visit. Overall, it was good, and I hope to visit again in the future...

Very convenient location..close to the 'old town' area of Medan and the city centre.
Apartment had good facilities and a nice pool which was well maintained.
Negative was the bed linen needs updating and the pillows were not nice.
For the price of 10 night stay it is fantastic value and adjust expectations accordingly.

The hotel owner was incredibly friendly; he picked us up from the pier and dropped us back off for free. He also arranged a fantastic driver for a good price, who shared insights about various attractions while driving us around and even took us to some unique, non-touristy Batak spots.
The view from the room was stunning, and the hotel also has direct access to the lake. The room was clean, and it was a lovely touch that the owner left complimentary bananas from his garden in the room.

It's easy to book a room, the only difficult thing is to find the owner of the room, maybe it's because of the personal order of people, so it's a bit complicated, I can't take my partner through the reservation, It's ok gpp. The room is fully equipped anyway. I like it.

TTing Anny TANGIf you’re looking for peace and quiet a bit away from the main town, Tuktuk Timbul is very well located. We stayed in one of their traditional-style little houses, which were very cute and charming. It’s a great spot if your plan is simply to relax, enjoy the atmosphere, and do nothing much. The homestay has a restaurant (we didn’t try the food though), a pool, a ping pong table, and a billiard table — so you can easily stay entertained without leaving the property. For the price, it’s definitely good value.
That said, if you want to explore or do activities around Lake Toba, this may not be the best base. There isn’t much to do in the immediate area, and the staff weren’t very helpful when we asked for recommendations — apart from renting a scooter, they didn’t provide much guidance. Communication was also tricky as they don’t really speak English. Service felt a bit cold overall; the owners live nearby but never greeted us, which made us feel like we were disturbing them rather than being welcomed.
In summary: a good option if your goal is to switch off, relax, and stay put at the homestay itself. But if you’re looking for friendly service, local tips, or activities beyond the property, you might find it lacking.

WWILSON MINDODThe place are quite new big room & still need to improved more. No TV, no AC either fan in the room. Nice bed, nice View from the room & got more plug at the room. Just need to walk down and up the stair too much. No short cut. So far the owner was kind & helpful. TQ Penginapan Mafir.

RRijkProbably the best resort in Pantai Cermin. The staff is friendly and attentive. We had good matrasses and a spacious room. The website includes a note that ‘some rooms have windows’, suggesting the chance of getting a room in some sort of cave. We think most rooms have (several) windows, so the description of the rooms deserve better.
Be aware that the place is hard to get or to leave if you don’t have your own means of transportation. Taxis don’t come here, maybe Grab does. Foreign tourist hardly come here and only a few staff speak English, but Google translate can help out. The resort is busy in the weekends with local tourists from nearby, like Medan. The immediate surrounding is regularly sweeped to remove rubbish, but many places, including the beach has a pollution issue.

ЕЕвгенийKeep in mind that electricity on the island is periodically turned off, for several hours (5-6 hours). Otherwise this is a great place.
Delicious and varied cuisine, excellent views, helpful staff, some rooms have a lot of ants, but it’s possible to find the best option.
Excellent entry into the lake.

AAnonymous UserHaving a last minute booking the reception was really fast. We were also given a voucher for snacks. The view was fantastic. Being facing the Bukit Barisan and having Mt. Sibayak as a background. Thought of having dinner at the Rooftop cafe. But only knew that the cafe only opened after 8pm. We ordered at 8pm, but only received our food at 9.15pm. Even my kids already cried because of hunger. The food was average. Not much of a choice. Even the choices in the menu were not really available. Please bring your own soap, shampoo and tissues since these were not provided.

AAhmad Azrai bin Abdul RahimWe stayed at Sapo Karo Rest House as a family, booking 2 rooms. The location is very good—close to main attractions in Berastagi but still peaceful and calm. The environment is relaxing, perfect for family bonding and rest. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the surroundings felt safe and quiet. We really enjoyed our time here and would definitely come back!

GGuest UserGreat place to stay. Very quiet and chill. Only downside was the flushing toilet did not work properly, the hand washing sink's pipe was not properly installed, the speed of the shower was not fast enough and hot water sometimes was limited (maybe because we did not know how to operate it well). Overall, with quite an affordable price, I can't complain much 👍
Also, they allowed me to borrow their water host to clean my car before checking out on their reception yard.

ЕЕвгенийNo Wi-Fi. Nearby there is a villa where young people sing karaoke and play the guitar every day, sometimes until 1-2 am, this makes it difficult to sleep. I hope the situation will change.
Beautiful view from the second floor (take a room on the second) of the volcano. For a short stay this is a good place.
