Coblong Hostels

Well, at the first time we areived everything went well. Welcomed by Mr Agus THE ONE AND ONLY BEST STAFF in this hotel (others were worst!), he assisted us to the room very polite gesture and good communication. Started while i asked for more bath towel, coz i booked 4 rooms for family, and i occup the room with my parents which more than 3 person inside, however they said it is unable to send more otherwised it charged. We understood and cancel the request instead. We also cannot refill the bottle of water (the small size one) they said it will charged in IDR 30.000 which i understood and we cancelled the request and bought by ourself outside. Second day, after we held a family event, we are extremely exhausted. After bought a food (soup) we req them to deliver a bowl. And they said they will sent it up. Until end of the day, the bowl was not coming, and my sister ate it from its plastic! Me and my husband decided to extend the stay to higher type of room, we paid all in advance, we understand because we booked the reservation in a last minute at around 12pm, the rsv was still not interface to the system i guessed, and they asked us to wait and will call to info us when the rsv interfaced already. Until more than 30 mins, no one get back to us, we did not complained at all, i came to reception met argita which was the person who handled us, and she informed that the rsv have been received (and no one call us). i did registration as normal and they gave us the room in a lower floor which was not our preference, and asked to get higher floor. They said, they will call us due to the room was not ready yet, which -again- we understood. We are waiting until 2 pm but nobody call us, and i came again to them asked for my room, surprisingly the room was ready :) thank's God because we are very initiative to ask them :) i guess if i was not asking my room, they will never call us... No apologize conveyed due to we need to wait for room nor call us to collect the key. Also the boy before argita, who handled us in the receptionist needs to be trained how to listening to the request and question well and conveying the information well to the guest. Other thing why i fed up was, we ordered food outside, and the reataurant forgot to put the cuttleries, and i requested to them for cuttleries, this rude staff named Sansan, said it chargeable, well i still don't understand and asked why it chargeable, and he explaination was unbelievable and i really hate to explain it here ( you can try by yourself to proof this if you want to loss your day and money only to get worst service:)) he said the information was on the room svc menu which was not there! He said, the charge is for the possibility, if only the cuttleries can be lost which we don't have any plan to lose it :) i told them that last night when we requested the bowl, it didn't come, and no apologize AT ALL. Only the rude explanation from this SANSAN. The spv gave us a so-so explanation and apologize after

last minute booking on a long weekend. out fault. however please do take note the rooms on 1st floor got window to in hotel alley, not to outside the building. the swimming pool is shared with sister hotel aston and it's not that big (dip swim only). cihampelas is also a declining area, not like 90's good old days of fashion center. they do have nearby cihampelas walk which is beautiful though. receptionist, bell boy and restaurant staff give excellent and attentive service, thumbs up. however the security guard try too hard to the point that they don't leave much personal space for us to take care of our family ourselves. i have to ask them to stay out of my parent's way yet they still standing too close not allowing me to comfortably close my parent's car door.

The hotel is centrally located, but along a very busy road. The busy road is therefore the reason that the terrace is very noisy. You can't have a conversation with each other, there is so much noise. The rooms are very dark and noisy, but fairly clean. The fact that the swimming pool opens early in the morning is not a plus with screaming children. Breakfast is fine, not very special. An extra toaster is not a superfluous luxury. The waiting time for a toasted sandwich is very long. For the rest the food from the menu is fine. The friendliness at the reception strongly depends on who is there. In addition, we also had problems with the light that did not go out in the bedroom, but I do not have the illusion that this has already been resolved. Next visit in Bandung I would rethink visiting this hotel again.

After reading all the reviews, I decided to take my chances by booking this hotel and it pays off. Simply put it, we had a great time here. Especially on how inexpensive we paid for the rooms. Room were well maintained. Spacious too. Friendly staff. Perfect location. Nice breakfast served daily. On the negative side, they should provide iron for usage by the patron instead of charging us for ironing our clothes.

Great place to stay the night, close to many restaurants and Cihampelas Walk (mall). They have large bedroom and bathroom, very comfortable and clean. They also have friendly and helpful staff. Overall, I had good experience.

I stayed for three days and I was able to explore Cihampelas during the day and enjoy the comfort of my room during the night. It was an enjoyable experience. For a solo traveler, the hotel has a great value for money. It's hard to find other properties with such a great location and value for money for a solo traveler. It has all the amenities you need, the staff was polite and efficient, and the breakfast was decent enough. However, If you're traveling with your family or with an entourage of more than three people, there are better properties nearby that could offer more value for money and more amenities with the same level of comfort.

The location is very comfortable away from Dr. Kebising. Kmrin Nginep in Room 307: The towel smells of a gas, the sheets are stains, the air conditioner is not cold (the dead suit is dead). Fortunately, the smell of air conditioner is not hot.

The location is very strategic, can be reached from any direction, the rooms are quite big, but equipment such as amenities is very lacking, you have to ask for towels, the water is not hot enough, the room door sometimes doesn't lock, there are no bathroom mats, pillowcases and the towels are too dirty

I was booked for Deluxe room. But I don't like it. The room is too humid. I finally upgraded to an executive room. which is quite comfortable. Better you choose the executive room if you want to stay here.
