The location is good as the property is in the central area of Jakarta which gives you about the same travel time to most places around the city. But, this also can be a disadvantage because of the heavy traffic to get in and out of this Cikini area.
The hotel was good. Breakfast was okay. However, the front desk staff were not as friendly as many other hotels I've stayed. As an example, when I asked for a store that may be open at a late hour, the staff wouldn't even look at me but say 'everything is closed' while looking down at a computer monitor, not looking at me. And this similar event happened twice during my stay. I'm not asking for anything special, but I definitely felt like I was not welcome to ask a question as their guest.
