Fun and enjoyable, worth for the money spend”

The staff was firendly and attentive, room is clean and comfortable, easy access for public transport

The process of check in and check out was fast and easy. The staffs are very helpful. The food is good. The hotel also allows me for late check out until 2.30pm without any extra charges. The hotel is also safe for my yound children to stay in a room on their own because there is no connecting room but the hotel gave me a room beside my room for my young children. It is a hotel that will try to their best to cater for customer's need whatever possible. I will surely recommend it to my friends travelling to Palembang.

Clean, good location, helpful staff, good complimentary breakfast, hot shower with great water pressure

We had a good experience during our 4 nights here. Room was clean. Shower was hot with great water pressure. Complimentary breakfast that varied slightly each day. The staff was helpful. Bedding was clean. Only cons: a few ants near the coffee maker but no big deal, no flat sheet on bed only a comforter with sheet built in (asked the staff for a flat sheet and they brought us one). Would gladly stay there again.

This hotel was good.....”

First of all, the location is very good, and you can find easily find food surrounding the hotel, and the staffs are nice, however this hotel lack of facility-maintenance is very disappointing... I stayed here quite often, the first time they opened it was superb and the price was good, but now its getting more expensive while the rooms that I stayed in almost always had issues, electricity went down many times, the lock was broken, the aircon wasnt cool at all.... I really wish they fix all of those problems....

Just a normal hotel but not convenient”

Nearby the "keropuk" selling shop

I stayed at the hotel for three nights. The location for the hotel was not so strategic. It's located at the T junction and it was a hassle for the guest to cross the road. It was not convenient to get a trishaw nearby the street. Walking to the nearest shopping mall takes about 15 to 20 minutes. The superior room just suitable for a maximum of 2 guests. I found out that water was leaking from the piping at bathroom. The breakfast buffet was nothing special. The reception was helpful, one of the staff, Mario, willing to fetch me around the city. But only after his working shift, he did not quote the price until he fetched me on the way back to the hotel. Imagine that I paid for his meal and petrol wish I felt that it was okay since he willing to show me around the city. At the end he demanded Rp200,000 from me. I tried to reduce the charges but failed! I worried that he might hurt me so I have no choice and paid him Rp200,000. He stopped his motorcycle before we reached the hotel, in order to collect the money from me. I was totally shocked and angry! Advice to the guest/tourist: Do not trust anyone especially for the reception counter staff called Mario.
