we're writing claire in the previous
video we told you why you should visit
bandung
in this video we're headed back to
jakarta this time in style
[Music]
bye bandung city
you've been amazing but it's
time to hop on another train and head
back to jakarta this time we are taking
the
executive class so we're going to give
you a
comparison video between the economy we
use to get to banglang and the executive
we used to get back
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
so you just get your ticket that you buy
online and you come to this machine and
scan your barcode or put in your booking
code and then it prints your tickets
you might not have to print your tickets
first but we just wanted to have them
so that we can take it to the geno
station now it's 20 past one
and our train leaves at three so we've
got one hour and 40 minutes which should
be more than enough to complete the
geno's test
so let's see how this goes
hello hello and again
[Music]
thank you
[Music]
hello
[Music]
thank you okay we finished with the
taste it took us exactly 45 minutes
waiting in the line paying and then
doing the test itself it's now
five plus two so we've got 55 minutes
before the train leaves so
i recommend at least you'll give
yourself an hour and a half just in case
it's busier
than what it was here today
[Music]
again it's super easy well signed
everywhere
just give your ticket to the lady at the
counter and your passports and your
cover test and you just follow the path
[Music]
for your feet but there's literally
being a tall person
there's so much leg room
[Music]
my knees were touching the chair in
front of me on the last train there's a
footrest
and extra space and the chairs are
bigger and more comfortable
otherwise i think everything's pretty
much the same
there's a power charge for your laptop
there's a little table on the side for
your bottles and your snacks
great air conditioning and that's it i
think we should go check out the toilet
pad
basically a airplane toilet
a little sink some soap and to do the
business
very cool this is the smallest basin
i've ever seen in my life
the size of my hands
oh my initial impressions are it's worth
the upgrade
it's eating
[Music]
crispy chicken so there is a endermart
in the station to grab some snacks
some drinks
[Music]
i think i just spotted an extra
you just discovered the same thing as me
[Music]
the improvements keep getting better
better this chair reclines
so much
right
time to go
[Music]
we are halfway through the journey it
does get very cold on the train so
definitely bring a jersey
and i'd recommend wearing long pants
because the air conditioning is very
strong
but we just got some coffee and some
lunch it was 45
000 for a coffee and a nasi goreng so
pretty affordable
[Music]
humid humid humid
[Music]
okay back in jakarta as you come out of
the train station
resist the urge to go with the taxi
drivers that approach you
just head out to the left walk a little
bit along the road and you'll see the
blue bird taxi station alternatively you
can
get a grab it's just a lot cheaper
always bluebird always yeah bluebirds
reliable
and affordable well let's just say fair
if you go with the private tax drivers
they'll charge you 100k
150 200 and upwards it's crazy
since you've made it this far we thought
you'd come along and we'll show you our
hotel that we'll be staying in
it's on tamarind street near bundaran
high i think that's how you say it
so very close to the metro station and
in walking distance to the plaza and the
grand malls
so let's have a look
[Music]
this is the foyer entrance area there's
a nice
bar here
this is the restaurant where the
breakfast will be served
really cool trendy music playing cool
vibe
smells so good cool hotel hey it's so
trendy
yeah i'm loving these art hotels this is
the sister hotel
to the braga where we were staying in
braga street in bandung
[Music]
wow this is awesome perfect
it's so cozy wow
oh this is so cute man
it's so cool the wallpaper it's
perfect nice area for working coffee
machine
mini fridge this is about a hundred
thousand rupees more
than the uh cool living that we stayed
in in jakarta in our first day
but i would say this is definitely worth
the upgrade
wow so cool
let's go check out the bathroom
toilets basin and a shower which is
separate
so that's an improvement as well because
in cool living the shower and the toilet
we're basically on top of each other
and yeah sometimes the toilet gets quite
wet
it can be a little bit inconvenient but
this is really cool
the internet's 14 down
and 14
up
hello how's it going welcome to jakarta
thank you
oh
this is awesome there's a buffet here
wow this is like we just we literally
just came to a clubhouse
why don't we need to go to skype
this is amazing this is literally our
hotel
on the roof and it's just such a barbie
rooftop bar
i don't think we could have booked a
better place really this is so up our
alley
[Music]
let's see how much the bin tang is yeah
based off the bin tanks is how expensive
you know a restaurant's going to be
let me see you guess you guess
i want you guessing you guys i'm 35.
what's your gift for the maintain 50 60
60. okay i say 35 what is it
it's uh 74. oh my god
that is too expensive for bintang four
times the price that you'll find them in
bali
and five times the price you can get
them in the alpha mods and bali
definitely on the pricier side on this
rooftop does look very very popular but
it's super trendy
uh bentang's are 75k cocktails 135k
food is kind of expensive too so it's
definitely on the premium side
but it's our first night back in jakarta
so we are not
we are not two-faced
[Music]
that's it for this video stay tuned for
the next one as we'll be headed to
chinatown to eat more delicious street
food
followed by even more food at a korean
barbecue with friends
[Music]
you
