Santika Properties in Jakarta

I booked a two-night stay here due to its proximity to my client's office. To be fair, the room was quite spacious, and there's a swimming pool. The facilities seemed decent enough at first glance. However, the cleanliness was far from satisfactory. To my dismay, I spotted a cockroach in the room on the very first night. I'm not sure if it was an isolated incident, but overall, my experience was quite disappointing. This hotel seems to cater primarily to tour groups; every day, I saw tour buses and mountains of luggage. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend it for solo travelers or those on business trips.

Booked through Trip.com. My flight schedule changed, so I couldn't stay the first night. Be warned: no cancellations, no changes allowed. I checked in past midnight on the second day. My room was ready, and it was the same king-size room with an exterior window that I had booked. However, there was a constant buzzing noise, a 'zzzzzz' sound. It was too late and I was too tired to do anything about it, so I just went to sleep. On the second day, I requested a room change. They gave me a king-size room with an interior window, which was very quiet. The room itself was too small and felt very cramped. Because of the interior window, it was quite unpleasant to be alone in the room. I managed to stay for a week but couldn't handle it anymore, so I moved to a different hotel. P.S. Behind the hotel, there's a supermarket, a barbershop, a pizza place, and a small restaurant. Hope this helps!

It's very close to LTC and there are many dining options nearby. However, the facilities are a bit old, the rooms are small, and the soundproofing isn't great. The breakfast, though, is quite rich and offers local specialties!
