إيبيس جاكرتا تامارين

Ok stayed here one night. Never again. Ibis is an international brand. Yes it’s cheap and cheerful but this place was awful. The room was disgusting. The bathroom was filthy. The towels were discolored and old. They had black stains on them. The bed sheets were discolored and they stank like they hadn’t been washed! It was in a really really bad state. The only decent thing was the check in experience. The gym was awful. Equiptment was old the padding on the bench press smelt like my boxing gloves... nasty and sweaty. The gym floor was wet due to the changing rooms for the pool being on the other side so people were dripping water all over the gym floor.

Quiet location and close to shopping centres and lots of food stalls selling local Indonesian dishes.

I wanted to see Jakarta for a few days before moving on to West Papua. Ibis Tamarin was nice. Looking a bit old, but still maintained well. The pool and gym are very nice. I wish they had longer hours for their pool&gym. Location is right in central Jakarta if that's what you want. Wifi worked fine. I asked for a complimentary fridge to be put in my room as well. The shower in the bathroom is excellent.

Left and right are hotels and more hotels. Hotel is within walking distance to the famous mall, Sarinah departmental store. Lots of eateries nearby. High end and street food available.

Decent budget hotel near many government Ministry offices. Staff are very helpful, and are competent at making taxi arrangements. Breakfast buffet was good but not high end. The bathroom could have been cleaner but was not unhygenic. The room lighting was spotty, some lights would not turn on.
