It was so amazing, I was amazed there. Information was written everywhere, but it was a bit confusing because there were so many people. If you want to ask, the staff can really help. Ask the staff at the ticket counter, if they can't speak English, there's a template to explain the train lines. I didn't regret booking the JR Wide Pass. It was really suitable and could save a bit. However, for those who don't want to bother going up and down escalators looking for train routes, this is not suitable. You have to have a high adventurous spirit.

I wasn't able to redeem the vouchers because the QR codes were invalid , according to the JR service personnel. So, i ended up buying new tickets right there, and just requested traveloka for refund. Better and faster if you would just buy there when you arrive.

Actually all the ticket exchange procedures were explained clearly but because the required QR code was sent separately, and there was also another QR code before (which we thought was the one that was scanned) so it took longer than it should have before I finally realized it. Other than that everything was ok, the service and staff were friendly.
