An island of tranquility in Jakarta's bustle”

Inn perfectly describes this little hostelry located very close to Jakarta's Mangga Dua upmarket district. An old mansion very tastefully converted into a 17 room inn. I stayed in a "luxury" room as it was designated, and the room was large with a high ceiling. It was pleasing to note that the air conditioner was up to the task of kerping the room cool. A king sized teak four poster bed made for very comfortable sleep. The shower/toilet was adequate & clean. Unfortunately, my particularly room faced the road and despite closed windows, some road noise still got through. For RM134.00 (USD43.00) per night who would complain. Facing the road had another minor setback; the room got dusty. The simple local breakfasts (variations of fried rice) were tasty but a little dull after 2 mornings. I elected to have breakfast by the pool in the central courtyard. A small pool with a couple of frangipani trees overhanging the water. A more tranquil or picturesque morning greeting you could not find. The staff are friendly without being obtrusive. Eager to assist be it in helping to understand the menu or calling a cab. By accident, while havin to retouch in my sheets, I found that the beds are not properly made with squared corners, so the sheets keep coming untucked. Occupancy was low while I stayed there. Most certainly, I'll be back.

"colonial heritage" hotel, beautiful decor”

A 5-minute drive from Poins Square, this old Javanese house converted into a hotel has lovely views for a location in the midst of Jakarta. Great for a relaxing getaway, or photoshoots, etc. AirCons are old tho, and don't really get cold.

comfortable, big space”

I am a solo traveler from Singapore. I am 30. I took their Deluxe room for two nights in April, 2013. Pro- Big Rooms and high ceilings, friendly and prompt staff, value for money. Cons- my room was clean but the wardrobe had a thin film of pesticide (may be) and bathroom could have been cleaner even as it was sanitized and nice smelling. Tip - Avoid rooms in front as there could be fair amount of traffic noise in night.

Awesome place, nice designed”

It was awesome, enjoy every second of it. nice and quite. The hotel kinda far from main road, so its best to have a car, or you can go by taxi.

Sanctuary ”

Overall was very satisfactory. Staff were helpful & food to good standard. If I were being picky meals should be served with linen napkin, telephone should be located bedside, one's conversation may be heard throughout the hotel, and don't expect privacy when using the pool. Otherwise it's beautiful, clean & comfortable with all u need esp wifi.

Awesome rooms, very good prices”

Great stay. Staff very friendly and helpful--even got a partial refund when the room I initially selected was not available. Only "con" is that the AC takes quite awhile to work. Sigh...

Good atmosphere ”

Feel good, very friendly and helpful staff :) a big thanks to the hotel manager, keep always great works!

Lovely Hotel but dusty”

stayed there for six days and five nights. the workers there are just have been very helpful and friendly too. the food in their restaurant are fairly good. what i love the most about the place is the furniture, ethic, classic, and cultural (i just wished that could have played javanese instrumental to complete the javanese atmosphere). one thing i regret was they have such a lovely place but the two rooms i stayed are very dusty. i saw cobweb in every corner.

Unique Balinese design and cosy”

Great stay overall, place has a Balinese large rooms and bath. Need a larger aircon or add fandue to high ceiling room. Near Pondoh Indah mall

Interior and staff are both very nice”

I enjoyed my stay very much, the staff created a family like atmosphere

Great place, lovely service”

I stayed there 4 nights and loved the ambiance. It is not easy to find places like this in Jkrt unless you pay lots of money. A drawback for most people will be the long distances from popular areas but for me it was perfect as it was close to the hospital I needed to visit.

very lovely and recommended hotel..!”

We enjoy our stay, the staffs are very nice and helpfull!

Quiet environment, need more signage to find the h”

This place require decent signage so that people will recognise its present since i was quite difficult to get there since only people didn't notice this place. Good place to relax with reasonable rate. Bed sheet and room cleanliness required further improvement.

Not too bad at all”

Place very unique with old wooden architecture,bit creepy but overall is Good.

nightmare ”

I was unable to get any sleep on the first night due to sounds of running water outside my window. It was not even raining outside. To make it worse the window would not close so the whole room was filled with mosquitoes. I had to check into a new hotel down the road at 5am to get some sleep. They managed to fix the window for the second night, which improved the mosquito situation and made helped reduce the noise of the water outside.

Cozy, homey, serene. ”

Good experience.

There are a lot of better hotels in the are.”

I was very disappointed with this hotel. I don't think my room had been rented for some time. It was filled with moth balls the size of golf balls and the smell was overwhelming. Staff did not even provide soap for the bathroom. I had to ask for it. I was booked for 4 nights but checked out after the first night. I think I was the only one in the hotel.

Good Stay”
