Hotel Syariah Cordova

The Wi-Fi reaches only the common area, not the rooms. Still, the location is perfect, just across from the train station.

Superior rooms cost 200,000 Rp, a little more upscale than the standard ones. The older rooms, without a television or shower, are 150,000Rp. The building itself is old, but there are plenty of rooms to choose from, and the location is convenient.

There’s lots of local food nearby, cheap and tasty, and even a cafe. At night the area felt safe, and it’s easy to walk around for sightseeing or reach other hotels. The hotel is near the exit from Cirebon train station, right in the heart of town. It’s a low-cost option for travellers, backpackers, tourists, or business stays, with good food and air conditioning. Recommended as a hotel and place to stay.

Only come here if everywhere else is full. For this price, I expected much more. The towels were awful, there weren’t enough power outlets, and there was no hot water. The bathroom was dirty and the toilet didn’t work properly. The room smelled like damp, musty fabric, the air conditioner looked very old and hastily installed, and the paintwork was amateur. There were other problems too. Stay here only if you have no choice.
