Hotel Pantes Kota Lama Pekojan (ex.Griya pantes)

5 Nanda Kanoko - 4 years ago

Small, compact and comfy room. This place has still renovated when I stayed here, but nevertheless the rooms are in good condition. It has a single bed, table, flat cable TV and air conditioning unit. The room is cool, and well lit. But no windows whatsoever. It was clean, and overall nice. The price is very cheap, under 200k so it's very suitable for backpacker traveling, albeit the location that was quite far from the center of the city, and kinda hidden among the shops

The rooms are very dirty, especially the bathroom. The sheets also very dirty . The rooms have no window, and from your neighbour' you can hear everything..
My entrance door was broken.
Only the location is good. In 5 min you can teach the old city.

You get what you give lah ya.
This hotel was great, but not great enough, but not bad too. Le me review it oneby one as my experience stay at here for just 1 night.

Location: Good location, even it's located at unusual location, it's still good. You will didnt think before that this hotel was located in the middle of busy engineering shop area. And it's close enough with Semarang Tawang railway station. Also, I rent a motor cycle at Semarang, when I see the hotel, one thing that I worried is how about safety. And I thing even it's look like unsafe or whatsoever, It safe enough. many of their guest brought motor too. Also they had security and enough cctv too make this safe enough. appreciate that.

Services support: They were very responsive and kind. No complain about their service.

Room: Yes, this is what I said, you get what you give. Maybe the room look..hmmm......at some spot. But, considering with their price, ya its okay lah. It's clean, but maybe not clean enough. I like how they decorate the room, it look nice. And i like how big their bathroom even they only shower and closet. I reserve for single room byt i get room for 2, ya it's great because this bed is big enough for 1 person. But IMHO, becuae they used white linen color, they must tkae more effort to clean it, so it look more nice.

Amenities: Because they have some collab with airy room, they have airy room standar. I get mineral water, a couple of snack, towel, and soap.

Other: They use digital door lock for each room. So dont forget to bring your keycard every time you leave.

Hence, it seems there's still any spaces to improves that make them more great and make this more comfy for budget room.

A low budget hotel that is suitable for backpackers. It is also one of the Airy Room chains. But somehow i dont get the Amenity Kit in the bathroom (thank God, I always bring mine, but it should be of one the 7 Guarantees of Comfort provided by Airy Rooms).
It is located far from convenience stores or restaurants. The room wall are made from plywood, so you can hear the people next door's voice.

A good place for short stay,
the fact check in is available 24 hours is really a good thing, because it really near to Tawang Station, we reached by 7~10minutes or so by Gocar from the station for 10k worths.
and i think this hotel is easy to be found, easy to access attractions nearby (we never go more than 7km and reached 5 places in half day).
if you're in Semarang for like short stay, i really would recommend this place, and fyi the nearby culinaries and attractions you should go are Lunpia Gang Lombok, Kampung Pelangi, Lekker Paimo, Central Java Grand Mosque and Pasar Johar (i wouldn't recommend you actually but you can find the cheaper kebaya, batik or things like that, as in Tanah Abang in Jakarta (or even cheaper))
i'd say 4 out of 5 for strategic location.

enough about place, now it's room.
The room is not too spacious, you'd find a queen size bed and dressing table when you entered.
Negatively, the room is not the cleanest, the linen was dirty, the toilet floor was slippery,
i'd say 2 out of 5 for the rooms's cleanliness.

The AC remote works for AC but vice versa the TV remote isn't work for the TV lol, we just manually used the switch behind the TV.
the wifi reaches the 3rd floor (oh i was at 3rd floor fyi) but it can't be used, if i turned off the wifi, the wifi was available, the thing is when i was connecting, somehow it's dissapear.
the hot water works if you wait for 1-2minutes.
i'd say 3 out of 5 for the room's facilities.

that's it.
i'd stay if i come for a short time another day~
