Elpis Residence Studio Apartment JiExpo Kemayoran -Min Stay 3 nights-

We've had everything we need. Close to the convenient store & laundry. Friendly staff members.

Loud train sounds, ATM machine not working. Bad electricity. Couldn't turn on microwave and TV/AC at the same time.

Complete with all utensils, just like a normal apartment, not a hotel

Comfortable apartment with good equipment, in a good location. Really great for a budget. Has a gym and a pool, even though the gym is full with kids blocking all 5 machines to take instagram pictures all night :)

Sadly this room was on the train side, which you can clearly hear all day.

It was clean, and had a good desk, stove, fridge, and a few provisions (pots, pans). It's not large, but there's enough room to work, and plenty of power points (including an 8-way British adaptable power board which directly takes AU/NZ and other power plugs) Air-con worked well, and so did the shower. Plenty of cupboard space.

Not really enough utensils, cups, and glasses. Be aware of the power supply: half of it is on the building's generator. So if some of the electrics don't work, it's because the town power has gone out. I'd suggest the owner swaps the air-con off the generator circuit and put the fridge on there. The location is a bit poor: 1.0km from the nearest BRT stop (but reduces to 400m via back gate 05:00 - 21:00), or 1.8km from the next nearest BRT stop. I blame the BRT for putting stops so far apart. The nearby level crossing and railway line can be a bit noisy - We got used to it, but hopefully the authorities will remove this level crossing in a few years which would cut a lot of noise. Laundry service (Gracias Loundry) - a paid laundry service just north-west of the main lobby entrance is a bit coy with their pricing (but in the end, cheap enough at Rp. 9000/kg), and they don't really do a good job. They're actually more useful as a (unofficial, paid) luggage storage.
