This hotel is a little bit run down but offers huge rooms with nice views on Kota Jakarta for a very reasonable price when you booked ahead online (asiarooms etc)
we payed only 40 euro /one night /one room for a two bed room.
The bar- restaurants have a real **** price level so this is common in Indonesia;
cheap price for **** accomodation , high price for food and drinks!
One small beer costs 50.000RP (euro 4,50 $ 5,50) .
The chinese restaurant on the first floor offers 50% discount (excluding drinks)when you consume for a minimum amount. With 50% discount you pay than a quite "normal " price for a thee course meal though the price is a little bit above average. Warning: beer is very expensive.
In the direct surroundings of this hotel are no possibiltes to eat.

Very good location. In the center of the historic part of Jakarta (Kota). They have very reasonable price. My Superior room has been upgraded up to Continental Deluxe room for free. Breakfast served was more towards local cuisine. One recommendation... do not risk swimming in the pool, it really could be danger for health (photo is very different with actual conditions). Good location near Fatahillah Square, Puppet Museum (Museum Wayang), Jakarta History Museum (Fatahillah Museum), Fine Arts Museum (Balai Seni Rupa), Maritime Museum. Gereja Sion and Glodok are a bit far. Do not follow any local tour guides in Jakarta as then they will request a big money or ask you to buy something. Very reasonable price from Airport to Batavia hotel is IDR 100000 including Tolls!

Upside: Love the breakfast buffet. Lots of varieties.
Downside: A bit rundown and need refurbishment, not so great location.
Overall: OK
