OYO Living 1743 Anie Residence

I had a good experience there.

The room itself was really nice, clean, and comfortable, with good Wi-Fi. I came to relax and work on assignments, since cafes are too crowded, and at home it's hard to stay up late when there are lots of people around. Being able to bring snacks was convenient, too. I usually work at other hotels. I booked through an app and paid a 100,000 IDR deposit, which seemed normal. The trouble came at checkout, when someone inspected the room and said the sink was cracked. I'd only used it to wash my face and brush my teeth, so I didn't see how that was my fault. They asked me to pay 50 IDR for it. I checked with the owner, who said the crack was only in the bolts and the thin metal plate, around 0.1 cm thick, supporting the heavy ceramic sink. The owner insisted the plate was strong and blamed me anyway. I refused, and in the end I paid no compensation. Take a close look around the room before using it, and photograph any damage if needed.

The rooms are fairly spacious and comfortable, and you get standard amenities, though they don't provide drinking water. It's worth the price. Getting in by car is a little difficult because the alley is narrow.

The room was roomy and comfortable, and there was hot water. But check the room type carefully when booking: I reserved a standard room on travel*** yesterday, then arrived to find the standard rooms full and only deluxe rooms available, which raised the price 🙄🙄. There was no drinking water, though OYO usually provides it.
