Weary from over 24 hours of traveling from Los Angeles, we arrived a bit early for our check-in time. We were expecting that we had to drop off our bags and maybe make our way to somewhere nearby to await our room, we were greeted by a big smile from Albert, who was the Manager attending the lobby. He was friendly, attentive, efficient, but most of all - intuitive. Maybe it was our slumped shoulders or that we just looked wrecked from our travels, but he processed us quickly and went above and beyond and got us situated into our room for an early check-in, which is not typically offered. We were immensely thankful (Thank you, Albert)!
The rooms are clean, the staff was very attentive and accommodating, and there's a nice cafe downstairs at affordable costs (local faves such as oxtail soup) of you're feeling a bit lazy. The location was perfect for us, located in Central Jakarta right next to public transportation options and a lot of neighboring clean and safe hawker centers/food stalls for great food at amazing local prices.
Incredibly easy to travel north for history and Blok M just south of us. Big ups for supplying body lotion! We really enjoyed our stay!
Bonus Tip : Blok M is the jewel of Jakarta if your looking for trendy food, bar, and nightlife options. Here you will find bars voted on Asia's Top 50 list. Stop by Bebop, Modernhaus, Carrots, The Cocktail Club, and most of all Aftermath. Message me if you want more recs and introductions to some really rad bar folk.
