Escape to Paradise: Cinere Resort's Cozy Studio! – A Human Review (Depok, Indonesia)
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because I just got back from a stay at the Cinere Resort Cozy Studio in Depok, Indonesia, and lemme tell you, it’s… well, it’s an experience. Forget polished brochures and perfectly staged photos; this is the REAL DEAL, my friends. And by "real deal," I mean the good, the bad, and the slightly-confused-but-mostly-satisfied.
First Impressions & Accessibility (and the Lack Thereof!)
Getting there was… an adventure. Let's just say the taxi driver wasn't quite sure where he was going, which, in Depok, is basically par for the course. Getting around in Indonesia can be challenging for anyone, and the Cinere Resort Cozy Studio, isn't entirely accessible. There are elevators, which is a plus! But keep in mind those are the only really accessible things.
The Studio Itself: Cozy… Is One Word For It
The "Cozy Studio" is, as advertised, cozy. Think one room, efficiently laid out. Air conditioning, thank GOD, because let me tell you, the Indonesian sun is no joke. It has a comfortable bed, a working internet access, a safe box, plus all the essential condiments (tea, coffee, and little packets of sugar that always seem to stick together).
The Good Stuff: Pampering & Relaxation (My Personal Obsession)
Okay, let's talk about the reason I went: relaxation. And let me tell you, Cinere Resort delivers on this front! The massage was divine. Seriously, I’m talking “melt into a puddle of pure bliss” divine. I highly recommend the Balinese massage. I went to get the massage and the therapist was AMAZING! She worked out knots I didn't even know I had. The Spa/Sauna was also a real treat, and a wonderful way to end the day. The Pool with View gave me a moment of pure peace.
The Food Game: A Mixed Bag (But Mostly Delicious)
The dining options? Okay, so the breakfast buffet was… well, let’s call it “eclectic.” You've got your standard Asian Breakfast staples (nasi goreng, anyone?) alongside some more… questionable interpretations of Western fare. But the coffee was strong, and the Asian Cuisine in the restaurant was actually pretty darn good! They offer a Vegetarian restaurant. I was happy about that. I can skip the meat sometimes. I also loved the coffee shop.
Amenities Breakdown: What You Need to Know (And What They Don't Tell You)
- Internet: Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! YES! And it actually worked. I was able to catch up on my shows.
- Cleanliness & Safety: They seem to take safety seriously, which is a big plus. Anti-viral cleaning products, Daily disinfection in common areas, Hand sanitizer – all the things that make you feel slightly less paranoid about touching surfaces. They have fire extinguishers in the hallway, and my room has a smoke detector.
- Services & Conveniences: 24-hour front desk is a lifesaver (especially when you get back from a late-night adventure). Concierge was super helpful with some questions I had.
- Rooms: Air conditioning, hair dryer, free bottled water, and satellite/cable channels. They've thought of the basics.
- Getting Around: Free on-site car park to the rescue!
The "Meh" Moments (Because Let's Be Real)
- Things to do? Okay, outside of the spa and the pool, there’s not a huge amount of entertainment within the resort itself. You are in Depok, after all.
- Ambience: Yeah… a little bit more thought on room decorating would be a great idea.

Escape to Paradise: Dongbackdongsan Pension's Jeju Jewel
Okay, buckle up, buttercup. We're diving headfirst into a stay at the Cozy Living Studio Room Cinere Resort By Travelio in Depok, Indonesia. This ain't your pristine, robotic travel itinerary. This is my diary of potential disaster, punctuated by moments of sheer and utter bliss. Let’s get this show on the road… or at least, the idea of a road…
Day 1: Arrival and… Where the Heck is Everything?
- Morning (aka, the land of the lost luggage): Landed in Jakarta (Soekarno-Hatta Airport – can someone please teach them to pronounce "Soekarno"?). Already off to a shaky start. My luggage? MIA. Probably on a romantic getaway to Bora Bora while I'm stuck in Depok. Okay, deep breaths. Gotta find the Grab driver (bless the internet), and then…the Travelio place of wonder. Or, you know, the potentially disastrous, cramped living room.
- Anecdote: Seriously, I should probably take a luggage tracking course!
- Afternoon (the actual arrival and the quest for caffeine): Finally, finally arrived at the Cinere Resort. The lobby…well, it’s functional. Clean-ish. The staff are lovely, bless their hearts, speaking in what seems like three languages that I, apparently, don't know. The Cozy Living Studio Room… alright, it is cozy. Small, but the AC works, and the bed doesn't look like it's seen a serial killer movie. (Big win!) First order of business? Coffee. DESPERATELY need coffee. Found a tiny warung, Warung Ibu Ini (literally, "This Mother's Warung"). It's overflowing in the street, but the kopi tubruk is perfect. Strong enough to raise the dead, and that's precisely what I require.
- Quirky observation: The air in Depok is thick with the smell of jasmine and… possibly exhaust fumes. It’s a sensory symphony.
- Evening (The "Maybe this Trip Won't Kill Me" Meal): Figured I should probably eat. Ventured out in search of adventure… and food. Ended up at a place called "Warung Nasi Uduk Bang Udin." (Nasi Uduk is a coconut rice dish, for those play-at-home travel enthusiasts.) Let's just say the nasi uduk was EPIC and the sambal was hot enough to melt the enamel off my teeth. My soul might have been slightly singed, but the food? Worth it.
- Emotional reaction: I'm starting to feel… cautiously optimistic. Maybe this trip won't completely destroy me.
Day 2: Exploring the Neighborhood… and the Great Laundry Debacle
- Morning (the pursuit of enlightenment and clean socks): Okay, time to actually do something. I'm going to wander. Embrace the chaos. Found a little market nearby. Fruits the size of my head. Smells I can't even describe. Delightful, chaotic, and definitely a cultural experience (or at least, I'll tell myself that to justify the questionable things my stomach might endure).
- Rambling: Seriously, these markets. They're a kaleidoscope of smells, sounds, and sights. I am completely overwhelmed in the best way possible. I purchased rambutan.
- Afternoon (Laundry Day of Doom): The laundry situation is… problematic. The Travelio doesn't seem to have a laundry service. Okay, research time. Find a laundromat: excellent. Gathered up all my dirty clothes (which, let's be honest, is a significant portion of my luggage). Dropped them off. The guy gives me a look that clearly means, "Lady, you packed too many clothes." He was right.
- Imperfections: Here's where it gets truly chaotic. The laundromat offers a 'dry clean' service. I got to experience this by having my favorite shirt destroyed. I'm calling it the "Great Laundry Debacle."
- Evening (Salvation in the Form of a Massage and Nasi Goreng): After the laundry debacle, I deserved a reward. Found a little spa (read: massage parlor) nearby. The massage was… heavenly. All the tension melted away. It was so needed. Later, I ordered nasi goreng from a street vendor. It was the perfect end to a disastrous/triumphant day.
- Opinionated Language: This massage was absolutely necessary. Possibly the best investment I’ve made in the last decade.
Day 3: The Day Trip to Jakarta (Because Why Not?)
- Morning (The "Am I Really Doing This?" Commute): Jakarta. The big, bad city. Today, I'm going to bravely attempt a trip to the big city. Grab car, train… it's going to be a long ride. I need all the coffee. Pray for me.
- Stream-of-consciousness: I'm not sure I'm ready for Jakarta. So much craziness. So many people. So much… everything. But I feel I must see it.
- Afternoon (Jakarta's Charms and Chaos): Okay, Jakarta… it's loud! Full of energy. Visited the National Monument (Monas), it's impressive. It was a good visit, although I got a bit lost.
- Strong Emotions (good and bad): I got overwhelmed for a bit in Jakarta. At some point I started cryinh because I got lost and the crowds. But I found some beautiful cafes too, and some truly amazing art.
- Evening (The Humble Return) and a New Discovery: On the way back I found a hidden gem. A little restaurant tucked away on a quiet street, "Warung Makan Mbak Ani". Phenomenal. The best meal since I started this trip.
- Emotional Reaction: This restaurant saved my life.
Day 4: Back to the Cozy Studio (and the Embrace of Simplicity)
- Morning (The Joy of Doing Absolutely Nothing): Ah, the beauty of a day without a schedule. Slept in. Drank coffee. Read a book. It's… perfect. The studio, small as it is, feels like a sanctuary.
- Messier Structure: This is where I truly realized I had to come here. I'm not a city person.
- Afternoon (The Pool! Because Calories Don't Count on Vacation): Okay, decided to hit the resort pool. It's … small. But it's clean, and the sun is shining. I can float and pretend I'm in a James Bond movie.
- Evening (The Quest for the Perfect Sate): Last big meal of the trip. Searching for the greatest satay.
- Opinionated Language and Natural Pacing: The best sate of my life was found here!
Day 5: Departure (and the bittersweet goodbye)
- Morning (Packing and Last-Minute Panic): Packing always means leaving! The luggage is heavier this time.
- Afternoon (The Journey Home): Departure time. The Grab arrived. The airport awaits.
- Emotional Reaction: This crazy trip became an adventure I'll never forget. I will remember it well.
