Unbelievable Taman Melati Jatinangor Studio: Artisti's Hidden Gem!
Unbelievable Taman Melati Jatinangor Studio: Artisti's Hidden Gem!
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're about to dive HEADFIRST into the "Unbelievable Taman Melati Jatinangor Studio: Artisti's Hidden Gem!" – a place that, frankly, almost lived up to its name. I say almost because, well, nothing's perfect, right? But let's be real, it's a pretty darn good hideaway. Here's the lowdown, warts and all.
First Impressions & Getting There (Accessibility &… Not Always Accessible)
Okay, let's start with the nitty-gritty: Accessibility. Now, the official blurb will probably tell you something flowery about "easy access for all guests." Here’s the truth, as I (a generally sprightly human) perceived it: Jatinangor itself is… well, it's a place to BE in, not necessarily to get to. Traffic can be a beast. So while the airport transfer service is a HUGE plus, be prepared for a bit of a bumpy ride. Car park [free of charge] is a lifesaver because looking for parking can drive you crazy.
Regarding actual physical accessibility within the hotel, well, I didn't specifically check for ramps and such, and Wheelchair accessible wasn't highlighted specifically, but the Elevator is definitely a big win!
The Room: My Little Studio Hideaway (and the Internet)
Now, onto the reason you're here: my room! (or studio, technically). I’m talking about Air conditioning, Alarm clock, Bathrobes, Bathtub and all sort of Facilities available in all rooms. The Air conditioning was a GODSEND in the Javanese heat, and the Blackout curtains meant I could sleep until noon, which, let's be honest, is the definition of a good vacation. The Internet access – wireless (and, PRAISE THE TECH GODS, Free Wi-Fi in all rooms!) was snappy. I was able to stream my shows and stay connected with the outside world when I did not want to. There was the extra bonus of a Laptop workspace and Desk. Super convenient.
I really appreciated the little touches. The Free bottled water was a thoughtful touch, and while I didn’t use the On-demand movies, it was nice to know they were there. The Daily housekeeping kept everything spic and span, and the Wake-up service worked like a charm. I even had a Window that opens!
Now, a slight hiccup: while the Internet access – LAN was listed, I'm pretty sure it was just listed there for fun. I couldn't find a LAN cable to save my life. I didn’t really miss it, though, because the wireless was so good.
Food, Glorious Food (And the Occasional Mystery Meat)
Let's talk food. The hotel boasts a bunch of eating options, from Asian cuisine in restaurant to International cuisine in restaurant. I was eager for Breakfast in room and got a rather nice surprise. I’ve got to give them credit for the Breakfast service because it was top-notch.
I had the Asian breakfast one day. It was interesting. I won’t go into all the categories, but there was a particular… meat… that I couldn’t positively identify. Let's just say it was a textural adventure. But hey, that's part of the fun, right? It gets you out of your comfort zone, and it keeps you on your toes. But the A la carte in restaurant really takes the cake, it was DELICIOUS!
Ways to Unwind: Spa Days & Poolside Bliss (Oh, and Massages)
Alright, let's get to the good stuff: relaxation! The Gym/fitness was pretty standard. I didn’t dare. I am on vacation! However, the Swimming pool [outdoor] was absolute perfection. The Pool with view was like something out of a magazine.
And the Spa! Oh, the spa! I went for the Massage, and it was divine. I almost fell asleep mid-rubdown, which, let's be real, is a pretty good sign. They also offered Body scrub and Body wrap, but I’m not quite brave enough for those just yet.
For the Kids (and the Not-So-Kids)
I didn't travel with kids, but the hotel’s listed facilities -- Babysitting service, Family/child friendly, and Kids meal-- hint that they are. They are doing their best to create a family-friendly environment, which I'm sure is appreciated by those who need it.
Cleanliness & Safety: Sanitizing Shenanigans!
Okay, let’s get serious for a sec: safety. This place, like everyone, makes a big deal about hygiene, and so it should! The Anti-viral cleaning products are in place, which is good. There's Hand sanitizer everywhere, and the staff seemed genuinely concerned about maintaining a clean environment. It's a good feeling, you know? Comforting, even. Sanitized kitchen and tableware items were also a relief.
Services & Conveniences: Everything You Need (Except Maybe A Friend)
They really do try to think of everything. There’s a Concierge service, Laundry service, a Convenience store, and even a Cash withdrawal option. The Front desk [24-hour] is definitely a plus.
The Price is Right?
Listen, I won’t divulge how much I paid, but let's just say the value for money was pretty darn good, considering the location, the amenities, and the overall vibe. You're not going to be breaking the bank, but you'll definitely feel like you're indulging a little.
So, here is my verdict:

Kyoto Getaway: Unforgettable Stay at Yotsuki Machiya Holiday Home!
Okay, buckle up, buttercup! This isn't your perfectly curated Instagram feed; this is real travel, Artisti Studio Taman Melati Jatinangor By Travelio edition. Prepare for a rollercoaster of emotions, questionable decisions, and the occasional existential crisis.
Subject: OPERATION: ESCAPE THE MATRIX… AKA Bandung! (And My Sanity, Maybe)
Day 1: Arrival and the Great Apartment Hunt (and Existential Dread)
- 08:00 AM: Jakarta Airport - Ugh. The chaos. The heat. The… perfume lady who keeps spraying me with something that smells suspiciously like grandma's attic and potpourri. Okay, deep breaths. This is adventure. (Says the voice in my head that's clearly lying).
- 09:30 AM: Grabbed a Grab (the Indonesian Uber, for those uninitiated) to the Jatinangor train station. My back is already screaming at me. My luggage? It’s a beast of its own, somehow more alive than I feel.
- 11:00 AM: Arrival at Jatinangor train station - The smell of fried food is almost worth dying for, but the sheer amount of people trying to sell me something is giving me a low-key panic. Okay, focus. Artisti Studio Taman Melati… gotta get there.
- 12:00 PM: Arrived at the studio. The key pick-up was… well, let's just say the Travelio app is a little vague on instructions. Picture this: me, sweating buckets, squinting at a tiny, blurry photo of a lockbox, feeling like I’m in a Bond movie, only I’m more "bumbling accountant" than "suave secret agent." Finally found it! Success! Or, well, sort of.
- 12:30 PM: Holy crap, the studio is… decent. Not exactly the sleek, minimalist paradise the photos suggested, but hey, it has air conditioning and a bed. (That’s all that matters.) The view? The one where the sun is about to melt my brain.
- 1:00 PM: Immediately started questioning my life choices. Why did I book a studio? Am I turning into a hermit? Maybe I should order some instant noodles to stave off that low-level anxiety and my ever-growing hunger.
- 2:00 PM: First actual meal - a questionable-looking nasi goreng from a street vendor. It tasted like a glorious, spicy heart attack. I love it.
- 3:00 PM: Attempting to unpack. I've clearly brought too much stuff. Who needs six pairs of shoes for a weekend getaway? Me, apparently.
- 4:00 PM: The shower situation: Water pressure is like a gentle drizzle, but look, it's hot water, and I’m not complaining.
- 6:00 PM: Watched the sunset from the balcony. The sheer beauty of it… it was almost enough to make me cry. (Don’t judge. I'm a sensitive soul.)
Day 2: Food, Forest and Failing to Learn Bahasa Indonesia
- 08:00 AM: Woke up to a chorus of birds and the distant sound of a rooster. Or maybe I'm just hallucinating at this point. Grabbed some street food – something I can’t even name, but it's glorious.
- 09:00 AM: Attempted to learn a few basic Bahasa Indonesian phrases. "Selamat Pagi" is easy. "Saya suka nasi goreng" is crucial. "Saya tersesat" (I'm lost) will probably be needed a lot.
- 10:00 AM: Went to a place called "Dago Dream Park" based on a recommendation. What I found was mostly selfie spots and a rollercoaster of emotions. (The fear of falling off the almost broke me)
- 12:00 PM: Lunch at a cafe where the air conditioning was a blissful embrace. The food was good, but the people-watching was even better.
- 2:00 PM: Decided to try and go to the forest, the GPS took me to some random place. Found an amazing hidden gem, which turned out to be a cafe.
- 4:00 PM: Decided to explore the local night market, and got completely lost.
- 6:00 PM: Finally found my way back to the studio. Had a very satisfying meal, and played video games until I fell asleep.
Day 3: Departure and the Echo of Bandung
- 08:00 AM: Woke up with a strange feeling of familiarity.
- 09:00 AM: Packed and cleaned everything.
- 10:00 AM: Left my temporary life behind. The apartment was… not perfect, but it was mine, for a little while.
Reflections and Ramblings:
- The Food: Forget the fancy restaurants; the street food is where it's at. The spice levels will obliterate your taste buds, but the flavor will change your life.
- The People: Everyone is incredibly kind and helpful… even when you're butchering their language.
- The Imperfections: Things will go wrong. You will get lost. You will eat questionable food. That's the point. Embrace the chaos.
- The Verdict: Bandung, and this odd little Travelio stay, was… a journey. A messy, imperfect, often bewildering, but ultimately wonderful journey. I'm already plotting my return, and maybe, just maybe, I'll learn more than three basic Bahasa Indonesian phrases next time.
Until then, Bandung, sampai jumpa lagi (see you later)! And Artisti Studio Taman Melati… well, thanks for housing me. You’re… a place.
Yogyakarta's Hidden Gem: Collection O Andono Hotel Review (You WON'T Believe This!)
Okay, so... "Unbelievable Taman Melati Jatinangor Studio: Artisti's Hidden Gem!" Sounds... like a mouthful. What *is* it, actually?
Honestly, it's easier to *show* you than tell you. But alright, here goes: It's a studio apartment, supposedly. In the Taman Melati Jatinangor complex, which is basically student housing central in Jatinangor, Indonesia. And "Artisti's Hidden Gem"... well, they *say* it's "artisti." Let's just say the "hidden gem" part? My expectations were... lowered considerably. I’m talking "slightly chipped paint, maybe a dusty corner or two" lowered. I ended up needing therapy after my first stay. And not in the good way.
Is it actually *good*? Like, worth staying in or should I just camp out in the library?
Oof. Okay, deep breaths. "Good" is a subjective term, right? For me, after that whole therapy thing? No. No, it's not good. Not even remotely. Yes, it's cheap. Like, ridiculously cheap. But I’ve learned over time that cheap can be a siren song. Maybe you *think* you're saving money, but you're really just signing up for a whole lot of… character-building experiences. And let me tell you, I’ve had enough character growth for a lifetime. Seriously, camping in the library started sounding pretty appealing after my first night. The *silence*… I miss it. Plus, the library has air conditioning.
They say it's "artisti." What's that supposed to *mean*?
Now *that* is where things get...interesting. "Artisti" is a relative term, okay? It might mean "stained walls and a questionable smell of incense." It might mean "a chaotic collection of mismatched furniture that looks like it was salvaged from a thrift store apocalypse." It might… *and this actually happened to me*… it might mean "a half-finished abstract painting of questionable merit hanging precariously above the bed and constantly threatening to fall on your head in the middle of the night." (Seriously, I swear I could *hear* the painter chuckling in the shadows while I was trying to sleep!) So, artisti? Proceed with extreme caution and maybe a tetanus shot.
Is it clean? Because I have a *thing* about cleanliness.
Cleanliness... let's just say it's not the apartment's strong suit. Think "lived-in," and I mean *lived* in. Like, generations have lived there. I’m not saying there were *bugs* per se… but let’s just say I've made a pact with a powerful cleaning service since. The floor may or may not have been sticky. The bathroom… let’s just change the subject, shall we? Bring wipes. Lots and lots of wipes. And maybe a hazmat suit. Kidding! (Mostly.) Seriously, lower your expectations. A lot.
What about the location? Is it at least *convenient*?
Okay, *this* is where things get slightly better. It's in Taman Melati, which means you're right in the thick of things student-wise. Food stalls are everywhere! Literally, you can walk out the door and trip over a mie ayam stand. You're close to the university, and transportation is easy-ish, if you can master the art of navigating the bajajs. So, location? Not bad. Actually, it's pretty great. Just… prepare yourself for the chaos that comes with it. Loud music, constant chatter, the scent of… well, let's just say *interesting* cooking. On the upside, you'll never be bored.
What are some of the *quirks*? Give me the inside scoop!
Oh, the quirks! Where do I even *begin*? Okay, here's a taste of the *unforgettable* (in the not-so-great sense):
- The shower. I experienced the shower. Let’s just say the water pressure resembled a leaky faucet and the temperature... well, the temperature was a mystery. One minute, it's freezing, the next it's scalding. You'll develop a new appreciation for the concept of "quick showers."
- The Wi-Fi. Don't even get me started. It's there… sometimes. It's like a very shy, unreliable friend. Plan on hot-spotting your phone, basically.
- The noise. Oh, the *noise*. It's a student hub, remember? You've got the constant hum of activity, the occasional impromptu karaoke session, and the ever-present drone of motorcycles. Bring earplugs. Industrial-strength earplugs.
- The walls. They’re… thin. Like, really, really thin. You'll know everything your neighbor is doing. Everything. Possibly more than *they* know.
- And then there was the time the lock broke…
So, you mentioned staying there. Actually having *lived* there. What was the *worst* experience? Give me the juicy, gory details.
Okay, buckle up. This is the story that haunts my dreams. It was late. Really late. I woke up to a THUMP. Like, a *massive* THUMP. My heart leaped into my throat, because, you know, all the artisti painting and the general state of disrepair. I sat bolt upright in the bed, half-expecting the aforementioned painting to have finally made its escape. But no. It was… quieter than expected. I peeked out of the sheets, and saw… nothing. Just the dim light filtering in. So I started to calm down a bit. Then I noticed something. A shadow… moving. Near the ceiling. I slowly turned on the light. And there it was… *a rat.* A *big* rat. And it was… (and the memory still makes me shudder) *chewing.* Chewing on something above my bed. I slowly, slowly, slowly got out of bed, ready to make a run for it. I’m terrified of rodents. Absolutely petrified. I did everything I could to *not* wake up the rat. I got to the bathroom, pulled out the little, pathetic flashlight, and backtracked to the room, flashlight at the ready. It was then I saw… the rat eating a hole in a plastic bag of… instant Noodles. And I just… stood there. I was so tired, so broken, so defeated. I just… let it eat its noodles. Then I went to bed. I woke up. I spent the rest of the day, trying to clean the remnants of the noodles, the rat had left behind. Never again. Never. Again.
Would you recommend it? Be honest!
