Pros:

No trash bin, dirty linen, a gecko dropping on the pillow, a smelly room with mold, no window, and WiFi without an internet connection. I am sorry, but there was no enjoyment whatsoever. I am giving a 5 only because they offered a nice welcome bun and the AC was working.

In the morning, I looked into all the rooms along the corridor, as they were open, and the same smell was everywhere. I understand it is a tropical environment, but breathing mold spores is not okay, even if the room itself showed no visible signs of damage and looked clean at first glance and compared to the photos.

Proximity to the train station makes it a good location. But saying the above and paying 250,000 IDR for one night was not a good investment.

Basic hotel in front of Semarang train station
Pros:

Basic hotel directly in front of Semarang Tawang train station. Bed and pillows were comfortable, shower and A/C worked, personnel was friendly. Good if you have a late arrival (desk open 24/7) or an early departure. Fair price for the offer.

Cons:

Not clean.

Pleasant
Pros:

Close to the train station and old town.
Free water, snacks and tooth brush.
Very kind personel

Cons:

Noisy and there is window above the door, so the light from hallway -which is always on- always enters the room, so better bring you night mask.
