getting into jakarta at midnight
Hi
Any recommendations into getting into Blok M at past the hr of midnight. I checked with amaris hotel if they have pick up service, but they didn't respond. There check in seems to be at 2. 000pm. (don't know)
Any recommendations for a better hotel in blok M around 400, 000 (which allows women) and whether they will pick you up for a nominal fee.
Airasia from saigon offer a great deal about 120. 00us return but arriving time not so appealing).
Plan to stay in jak for maybe 2 weeks
Thanks again for your generous assistance.
Doggy 43 getting to Blok M or anywhere else
I assume you mean getting in from the airport which presumably you've not been to before? There is no problem at all getting a taxi - but go directly to the taxi rank, NOT the several small offices you will see as soon as you pass security on the way out. I have seen and heard guys pay Rp500k for a taxi which you can get for Rp100k by walking another 50 metres. Make sure they switch the meter on. The (black) Silver Bird taxis are slightly more expensive than the (blue) Blue Bird taxis.
Changing money in Jakarta
I will be staying at Mercure resko in jak are there many money changes around there or ATM machines that accept credit card.
Any ANZ ATMs around there.
Or do I have to go to a big bank to change Aussie dollars or US dollars.
