We stayed at this property twice enroute to Bali and then back to Jakarta. Didn't expect too much since most hotels in the smaller cities and towns weren't really up to scratch usually. However, we were impressed by Meotel. Location was quite good as it was easy to find since it was just by the main road. Some food and minimarts were within walking distance. Parking lots were available both on ground level and at the basement carpark so if you drive it shouldn't be an issue. Property had a chic feel to it as the decor was hip and trendy which would appeal to most especially a younger crowd. Room was a comfortable size at just over 230 sq ft. Showers were hot and the AC cold. You can't say that about most of the lower cost hotels in Indonesia. Drainage was also acceptable in the shower stall. The room we stayed at on our return trip did however have some noise coming from the waterpipes in the wall when the water was used by another unit. WiFi connectivity was good and speed was sufficient for browsing and YouTube. TV channel selection was good with cable channels available in HD. The lighting along the corridor at night was insufficient though as only some of the downlights were switched in making the hallway rather dim and a little creepy. Breakfast wasn't great with an ok selection but the presence of flies constantly trying to land on your food was a major turn off. Service staff were welcoming and friendly and we enjoyed the 2 nights we stayed there. Recommended.
