June 27, 2015 By Lauren Leave a Comment

For the last two nights of our stay in Yogyakarta, we chose to move from our lovely Air BnB in the country to one of the city’s premier hotels: the Hyatt Regency Yogyakarta. We chose the cash + points combination to get a steal of a rate at 2,500 points plus $50 per night. Sadly, […]
