Bobopod Paskal, Bandung

A pretty good capsule hotel, and booking with a voucher made it inexpensive. The dining and smoking areas on the second floor were a little dirty. The helpful staff made booking easier, and they’re available 24 hours.

The rooms are compact but do the job, and the staff are super friendly. The facilities are only okay: there’s no hot shower water, and the kitchen barely has anything, no fridge, one mug, and just three spoons and forks, if that. There’s supposed to be quiet time from 9 pm to 7 am, but nobody follows it, so you hear everyone. For what you get, it felt expensive compared with elsewhere in Indonesia.

For IDR150k-250k a night, I found it well worth the money and really enjoyed my stay. It’s the most modern capsule hotel I’ve stayed in, with friendly staff, a spacious and comfortable room, clean toilets and showers with warm water, and complete amenities. There’s a prayer room and a good selection of snacks, food, and drinks, so no need to go to a convenience store. The location near the train station is strategic. A few things bothered me: the AC, controlled manually from the ceiling, was too cold; parking was narrow; and you need to carry your phone everywhere to get into the room. I’d recommend it.

A cozy place with a lovely atmosphere. I was here for a quick business trip and slept as well as at home. Thanks for the kind help 🤝🏻. Yeah, it’s really suitable for backpackers 🎉
