1. I booked a non-smoking room but was placed in a smoking room with a very strong smell of smoke, even though I had children with me.
2. The food was not very varied and appealing. Breakfast was served outdoors and sweltering, with limited tables. Even then, the food wasn't very tasty. Only the fried egg was tolerable to my palate. The iced tea didn't seem to be made from brewed tea, but from packaged tea, so the taste was a bit odd.
3. The hotel's advantage is its strategic location. There's plenty of street food at night...just walk outside and you can explore the culinary scene...from Indonesian to international cuisine, even from traditional to modern...it's all there...it's all there...
4. It's a 3-star hotel, but it has a swimming pool. This is important, as not many 3-star hotels have swimming pools.
5. The room wasn't soundproof, and it was noisy at night due to live music upstairs. The only advantage of the room was its spacious size.
6. The staff was very friendly, even though there weren't many of them.
7. The room was very clean; the dusty wardrobe looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a while. The curtains also looked like they hadn't been washed in years, as they were yellowed from cigarette smoke.
8. For 550,000 Rupiah per night, it was quite worth it.
