Overall Ratings & Reviews The Packer Lodge Near Kota Tua

Clean and comfortable place to stay

great location📍bus transportation

Recommended accommodation, friendly staff, quiet location, perfect for travelers who like peace and quiet. I'll definitely be back next time, it's great 👍😃

The bathroom had hot water and was clean. The bed, sheets, and towels were clean. There was a pantry and refrigerator.

The most worthwhile capsule hotel. Close to the busway stop, making it convenient to offices in Sudirman.

Whenever I'm on business in Jakarta, I always stay here. After all, it's just for sleeping.

So far so good. Close to the busway stop, close to a 24-hour food stall, close to Indomaret.

Overall it's okay, for a stay of 1-3 days, it's really nice....the days feel really long. The bunk bed is okay. It's just a walk to the station, until you reach Kota Tua station, food is a bit difficult, because the area is still under construction, but finding a supermarket is really easy. Access to Jakarta is also good, there is a KRL, only 3000-6000 to the end of Bogor. There is a library with various languages above.

I started staying here when they 1st opened & gradually oversee their rating dropped from 9+ to below 8. Well most of the bad reviews stem from weak WiFi signal, which isn’t untrue. The hostel is still using old 802.11n routers. The connection drops from time to time even when we’re at the common area. The only time it is stable is during late night, I could stream YouTube even in room. The routers were placed at non-accessible areas, thus even if I knew a restart could solve the issue, I couldn’t reach it.

Everything is good, see you next time!

Clean rooms, cold AC, free coffee and tea, there is a food stall in front of the hotel, close to the city station, very pleasant.

Clean room and bathroom, staff are friendly and helpful, will definitely come back here again.

Clean & tidy room, friendly staff, unfortunately no toiletries.

nice & good. close to the city

I stayed one night just for transit. The facilities provided were quite worth it, considering I got a discounted room rate. The location is easy to reach because it is near the Glodok Transjakarta bus stop, the bed size is quite large so it is comfortable, cleanliness is maintained, towels & blankets are provided, hot water can be used, there is a space to relax & a pantry. The staff is helpful, the friendliness issue depends on how you respond to it hehe. Unfortunately, I didn't get a cellphone signal in the room but it was informed in advance by the staff, this made it difficult to access the internet to receive calls/personal messages. Thank you TPL, hopefully another opportunity can come back to stay if possible.

Lovely place to stay. Good hotel for transit and visiting tourism areas.

The only drawback is the lack of a handle to climb onto the bunk bed. You can't hold onto the bed frame, it's not sturdy enough. And there is no handle whatsoever on the wall for you to hold onto. Other than that, everything else is fine.

So far so good. Just walk to Old Town. Near the busway stop.

Please, those on duty at the Front Office can be friendlier.

There are pros & cons about this hostel, let me share the details below 😉.• Pros. 1. This hostel is not too far from the train station, so you can easily take a bus + walk for a bit or book an online transport like Grab / Gojek. There is also a bus stop nearby - about 10 mins walk 💪. 2. The staff are friendly and helpful, they are always there 24/7 😍 We arrived too early around 5 am but there is a staff there to help us check in earlier (with charge applied). They also let us to shower and keep our things at the luggage locker after checking out since we still have> 6 hours before departure. 3. Many options to eat 🤤 If you want to save your energy, you can just go to the small cafe next to the hostel or warung on the right side (it's called warung mangga) But if you want to explore the authentic food, you need to walk about 10-15 mins to Pancoran / Petak Sembilan / Gloria, there are tons of food - beware cause mostly are pork:) 4. There are a kitchenette and public space available. You can find a small but cozy library with seating area at the 3rd floor. And at the fourth floor, there is a proper kitchenette with cutleries, microwave, refrigerator, toast, sink, etc ✨ It also next to the smoking room and pray room for moslem.• Cons. 1. Why there is no signal 😭 Both Mobile data and wifi cannot be used inside the room. I don't know if it's just our room. I need to go to the ground floor or top floor to get signal:(2. There is no elevator, just stairs. Lucky us, we got our room on the second floor, imagine having room on the top floor (4th) and need to go up and down by stairs. Everyday 😵 Not so family friendly so no kids and elderly people. 3. The sheet and toilet is clean but I don't know why there are many ants in the corner of my room, that tiny creature keep coming to my food 😱 so we decided to eat at the fourth floor every. Single. Meal. Overall, it was a pleasant stay. I hope they read my review and fix all the cons above. Thank you and see you on my next trip ❤️
