i haven't read through this thread yet. gonna read it affter i post this

my travel date is 6/01 to 11/01

absolutely no plan, no hotels, no nothing

only came to jakarta for weezer concert at stadium senayan on 08/01

- 6/1 arrived at 4pm jakarta, and 11/1 leaves at 1pm jakarta

- wanna visit borobodur, dun mind paying air tickets from jakarta-yogya, but do i have the time? (train is 7 hours!!)

- either that or visit krakatoa - how expensive and dangerous will it be? 1 day just to travel there by sea?

- what can i do with this limited time? jakarta? around jakarta? bandung?

- place to stay, cheap (since i'm not gonna stay whole day in hotel anyway, just to sleep at nigth) - but no hostels - can't stand smelly mat salleh (yeah, staed a couple time b4 with them, yuck!) - nice, clean, and SAFE hotel

- no budget (read: unlimited, but i'm a cheapskate ), backpack only, so i can walk anywhere

- 2 of us, both gays guys

- needs indo sim kad, so gonna choose either telkomsat simpati or xl. which is better for 3g 1 week? not heavy user, just whatsapp (important to keep communication cost down)

suggestion guys!!!

hi cakur

any recommendations on budget hotels near senayan, or jakarta tengah, specifically around stadion gelora bung karno?

7 & 8 / jan will be in jakarta, but with no plans. any recommendation on places nearby?

edit: monas = muzeum nasional right? what is tmii -?

i will definitely go to borobodur, fly from jakarta -joga on the 9th, overnight at manohara (pricey!), and join the sunrise borobodur tour on 10th morning. maybe can catch prabanam temple in the afternoon or the next morning

whoa... nice places, esp the borobodur
