Bobobox Pods Tanah Abang

5 Pujangga Malam - a month ago

Very recommended for budget hotel. It's very comfortable and digital. Once you confirm your booking through the host, all you need is only your phone to unlock the door. There are two types of pods there which are sky and earth. Sky is very convenient and has plenty of room above your head. While it's not recommended if you bring a gaming laptop and want to use it on the mini desk. Because the distance between the mini desk and stop contact isn't reachable, it's almost 2 meters long. It's better if you choose the earth type. Earth is very cozy and narrow, because the position is right below the sky type. But, for those who want to use a laptop this type is very recommended. The same thing goes for young couples who want to bring their infants. It's safer. Well if you insist to choose the sky type but still want to use gaming laptop, you can go to the pantry. There are bunch of desks with stop contacts there, but the surrounding is noisy. It's up to you then. You're not allowed to eat inside the pods, only allowed in pantry.

Drinks and food are affordable, staff are nice , helpful and so polite. The Room are clean but not sound proof, the public bathroom are clean.

The only problem i encountered was the cigarettes smoke at 2am in the Lobby, it was all over the room.

I recommend the Earth room, because Sky room might hurt your arm and leg ????

Really a nice place to sleep. Comfort bed, clean, provided with personalized choice of lamp color and brightness, a pda to control light, sound (you can play river or forest background song, or Bluetooth your personal choice of songs to listen to inside pod speaker).

The pod also can be controlled by bobobox app in handphone. Really cool!

You can choose sky or earth pod. Meaning, sky if you like to be on the upper side or earth if you prefer on the bottom side. The height of the pod is only 1 meter high. But comfortable enough to not feeling inside a very small box.

Choose earth if you don't like to climb, but choose sky if you don't really mind.

The pods are super private from each other anyway. So i choose having a night here than other capsule or backpackers hostel.

Toilets are super clean. There are 2 toilets on each floor, with each separate male and female toilets. Love this design, really. So you can choose whichever nearer to you, or if one of them is full or dirty , you can always go to the other toilet.

Towel and toothbrush are provided here, which is a big plus from the other backpackers hostel. They also provide hair dryer, shoe lockers.

The other downside, like other hostels, is the pod not really soundproof. You still be able to listen to conversation on the nearby pods, also the other pods speaker. I really hate people who use those pods speaker loudly on the middle of the night or early in the morning, also turning on alarm on any time. It reay disturbing!!!

Location is great!!! There are kfc, mc d, maxx coffee, and some other café and restaurants nearby on the next door. Also near the busy tanah abang and kota.
Love it!

I only hate how they ask max 15k per day for car parking and smaller amount of money for motorcycle parking.

Good staff, good service, good facilities, the bathroom is clean with soap, shampoo, and towel provided, beds are comfy and clean, location is quite strategic, I have found some flaws in my pods but all the good experiences have covered the bad ones. Would definitely recommend and I will stay at Bobobox again in the near future!

Having a great time at bobobox! Clean room and bathrooms ???? . Room get cleaned once a day. Staffs are friendly.
The only minor problem is the electric pan was not working ???? but at least they have dispensers for boiling water (and microwave!)

If you stay in a hotel, you will get free Parking, but in here, instead of getting free parking, you get charged 10k to stay every night

EVEN IN 5 Star Hotel, you will get Free parking if you stay there..

Sometimes the hot water run out and they can only say its on maintenance, you should wait, but TIME can't wait, sometimes in rush hour, we should go at that time...
