Good for one night
It is OK for one night. Especially when you've just arrived in Medan and got off at the train station. It is close to the train station but you will need to be very careful when you cross the road. There is so much traffic and loud noise. You can even hear all of this when you are inside your room as there is virtually zero isolation. So bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper just like me. The hotel's former name is De Boer (reference to the Dutch period). It is located on a very interesting street. If you walk down Jalan Balai Kota in eastern direction, you will come across Tip Top restaurant (oldest restaurant in Medan), Tjong A Fie mansion, Istana Maimoon. It is not a very pleasant walk though as the pavement is always under construction and filled with holes. Traffic is one again terrible and the exhaust fumes are enough to kill an entire zoo.
