Tangerang's DREAM Studio: Sky House Bliss (BSD Travelio)
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into DREAM Studio: Sky House Bliss (BSD Travelio) in Tangerang. Forget those cookie-cutter hotel reviews, this is the real deal, the messy, glorious truth, warts and all. And get this: I actually stayed there. So, let's dissect this place, from the gloriously air-conditioned rooms to the… well, let's just say the interesting interpretations of "breakfast."
First Impressions & the "OMG, I'm Here!" Factor
Okay, so "Bliss" is a bold claim. But the Sky House thing? Dude, the view from the top floor (I snagged a high floor room, thank you very much) is pretty darn spectacular. You get that sprawling Tangerang landscape, the city lights twinkling at night… it's actually quite romantic if you're into that kind of thing. I was solo on this trip, which meant more room service for me, and a whole lot of staring out the window while pondering the mysteries of life.
Accessibility & Getting Your Bearings (The Maze of BSD)
Listen, getting to Tangerang can be a bit of a… adventure. And BSD? It's a whole city unto itself. Think of it as a pre-fab future, with tons of winding roads and new developments, which can sometimes be a bit confusing for anyone not familiar with the area. I do appreciate that there's Airport transfer which is a life-saver after a long flight, and the Car park [free of charge], Car park [on-site], and Valet parking options are all solid. No drama there.
But accessibility specifically? Okay, I didn't need a wheelchair, but I did poke around. The elevator is a good starting point, and the place seemed generally pretty navigable. They list Facilities for disabled guests, but I'd recommend contacting them directly to verify what specifically is available. Don't just take my word for it, ya know?
Rooms: The Good, The Bad, and the "Where's the Remote?"
Alright, let's talk about the actual room. Remember that whole "Bliss" thing? Well, it mostly holds up. The Air conditioning is a godsend in that Indonesian humidity. And they really got the details right. Blackout curtains? Check. Extra long bed? Yup, even a restless sleeper like me could stretch out. Free bottled water? You betcha. Seriously, the basics are all nailed down.
The Wi-Fi [free] was pretty solid. I needed to do some actual work (yuck), and the connection held up. You also get Internet access – LAN if you’re the old-school type. There’s a laptop workspace, which I appreciated, and a decent desk. The Coffee/tea maker was also a win in my book, because I need my morning caffeine.
But let's be real, it wasn't all sunshine and roses. The TV remote was… a mystery. Took me a solid 10 minutes to figure out how to change the channel. And the bathroom phone? Who even uses a bathroom phone anymore? #MillennialProblems.
I also had a few moments of, "wait, am I still in the right room?" because it can be a little bit sterile and hotel-like, which may not fit your vibe for relaxation.
Food, Glorious Food (or the Lack Thereof)
Okay, this is where things get, shall we say, interesting. Let's break it down:
- Restaurants: They have a few on-site, which is convenient.
- Breakfast: Asian breakfast is available and there's *Breakfast [buffet].
- Room Service: Room service [24-hour] is a godsend, especially late at night.
- Coffee Shop, Snack Bar: They are a win.
Now, the reality. Look, I’ve tasted some amazing Asian breakfasts in my time, and…. well, let's just say the buffet was not one of them. I felt a little conflicted because the ingredients were fresh, but the food wasn't that exciting. There was plenty of food, but the flavors were a bit muted. They do offer Breakfast takeaway service, in the morning, and I used this on one occasion.
But I did order Room Service for lunch with a Bottle of water a couple of times, and that was spot-on.
Things to Do (Or at Least Attempt to Do)
- Swimming pool, Swimming pool [outdoor]: The pool looked nice. But, (and here's where my inherent laziness steps in) I didn't actually use it. Judge me if you must.
- Fitness center, Gym/fitness: They have a gym. I saw it. I considered it. I chose sleep.
- Spa: They have a spa, in the traditional sense and with features.
- Sauna, Spa/sauna, Steamroom: Well, I didn't explore the spa because, let's face it, sometimes you just want to chill in your room.
- Massage, Foot bath, Body scrub, Body wrap: They have the massage options and that's nice to have available.
Basically, there are options to escape the day.
Cleanliness & Safety: Can I Trust It?
This is a big one, especially these days. The good news is, they seemed to be taking things seriously:
- Anti-viral cleaning products? Check.
- Daily disinfection in common areas? Yup.
- Rooms sanitized between stays? They claim it.
- Daily housekeeping? Yes (thank god).
- Hand sanitizer? Everywhere.
- Staff trained in safety protocol? Seems legit, they were wearing masks and being friendly.
They also had Fire extinguisher, and Smoke alarms in the room. This is all reassuring. No major issues here.
The Services & Conveniences: The Little Things That Matter
- Concierge: Never used it.
- Cash withdrawal Yes.
- Convenience store Yes, I found one, I may be the only one who does.
- Dry cleaning, Ironing service, Laundry service: If you need it, it's there.
- Meeting/banquet facilities, Business facilities, Seminars: Good if you're on a work trip.
- Luggage storage Fine.
- Air conditioning in public area Yup.
Getting Out & About
- Taxi service available.
- Car park [free of charge] and Car park [on-site] available.
The Verdict (and a Call to Action… for You!)

The on-site amenities are decent, it's clean, and the staff are friendly. It's not perfect – the food could be better, the spa could be more enticing, and the room decorations are a bit boring – but it's more than good enough for the price. Here's the part where I get to try and sell you the hotel!

Escape to Paradise: Dream Valley's Hidden Gem in Sangota, Pakistan
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because this isn't your grandma's meticulously color-coded travel itinerary. This is MY trip to the "Cozy & Minimalist Studio Sky House BSD By Travelio Tangerang Indonesia," and trust me, it's gonna be a journey. Prepare for tangents, existential crises over instant noodles, and the potential for me to accidentally spill coffee on my own passport. Let's DO this.
Day 1: Arrival and the Quest for Wifi (and Sanity)
14:00 - Arrival & First Impressions: Landed at Soekarno-Hatta International, survived the customs gauntlet (seriously, why do they always look at you like you're smuggling a llama? I'm not! Just tired!). Grabbed a Blue Bird taxi – bless those guys, they're the real MVPs. The drive to BSD City felt like a weird, beautiful, humid dream. And then… Sky House! I swear, the building itself looks like it's trying to be a minimalist robot.
- Anecdote: Found the key, wrestled it open with more gusto than grace, and stepped inside. First thought: "Wow, it is minimalist." Second thought: "Where the BLEEP is the Wi-Fi password?" (This became an ongoing theme, people).
15:00 - Apartment Recon & Wi-Fi Hunt: Okay, studio check: Cleanish. Bed: Present. TV: Big. But NO WIFI PASSWORD IN SIGHT. This is a DECLARATION OF WAR, Travelio! I've got messages to send, Instagram to stalk, and, crucially, food delivery apps to explore.
- Quirk: Spent a good 20 minutes wandering around like a confused squirrel, muttering things like "Maybe it's on the router?" and "Is this a cruel joke?" Finally found it on the back of the router, hidden away like a mythical artifact. Victory! (But it was a slow, patchy victory. More on that later.)
16:00 - Grocery Shopping (and Instant Noodle Destiny): Went to a local supermarket. I think it was called "Giant" (the name made me feel like I was on a heist film set). Load up on essentials like instant noodles (obviously), some weird fruit I couldn't pronounce, and an assortment of snacks that will likely lead to regret later.
- Emotional Reaction: Overwhelmed by the sheer variety of instant noodle flavors. I felt a deep, inexplicable connection to the "Mie Goreng" option. This is going to be a problem. I'm already sensing a noodle-induced existential crisis coming on.
18:00 - Unpacking, Noodling, and Sunset Staring: Back at the apartment. Unpacked (ish). Cooked my first batch of Mie Goreng (perfection, despite the lack of a proper whisk). Sat by the window, watched the sunset paint the sky with fiery hues. Actually, pretty damn beautiful. This minimalism thing might not be so bad.
- Messier Structure & Rambles: Okay, so the Wi-Fi is still being… temperamental. Seriously, Travelio, get it together! But the view… the view is killer. Like, you can see the whole city sprawling out. I need to remember this feeling of peace amongst the chaos. Maybe I'll try writing a little. Or maybe I'll just stare into space while eating more noodles. The possibilities are endless!
20:00 - Dinner & First Real Indonesian Food: Ordered from a local warung via GoFood (life-saver!). Got Nasi Goreng with beef rendang. Holy moly was it good. So much for my all-noodle diet.
21:00 - Sleep & Planning: Sleep, I am finally going to get some sleep.
- Opinionated Language & Natural Pacing: The bed is comfier than expected, but I'ma be straight - the lack of a proper blanket in this air-conditioned room is a crime.
Day 2: Exploration, Market Madness, and the Great Coffee Quest
08:00 - Wake Up & Pre-Coffee Meltdown: Woke up. My brain is functioning at about 30%. Needed coffee. Desperately.
- Stronger Emotional Reactions: Decided to go to a local coffee shop. Found one on the Google Maps.
09:00 - Local Market Adventure: Okay. So. I found this massive local market. Seriously, a labyrinth of stalls, colors, smells (some good, some… potent). Wandered around wide-eyed, feeling like I'd stumbled into a living, breathing painting. Tried a fruit I still can't identify other than it was sweet and juicy.
- Doubling Down on a Single Experience: The sheer vibrancy of the market was overwhelming. The vendors, the haggling (which I failed miserably at), the chaotic energy… it was sensory overload in the best possible way. Saw kids running around, their laughter echoing through the stalls. This is what "real" feels like. And I’m actually grinning.
11:00 - Coffee… FINALLY: Found a coffee shop. The coffee, thank goodness, was strong and dark, and the cafe was like a oasis from the chaos.
- Quirky Observations: Sat there, people-watching. Everyone seemed so busy, so full of life, yet so relaxed. The barista made my coffee with genuine artistry. A true coffee craftsman.
13:00 - Lunch & Reflection: Had lunch at a local restaurant. It was delicious.
- Messier Structure & Rambles: Am I a better person already? A little bit. Okay, maybe not. But I’m definitely getting less freaked out by the idea of being alone in a foreign place. Maybe. Coffee is my friend now.
15:00 - Kembali! (More Market!): Back to the Sky House to regroup, and then, yeah… went back to the market. I needed more of that chaotic, beautiful energy.
18:00 - Dinner & Another Noodle Night: Home. Noodles. Netflix. The circle of life continues… or, at least, my personal version of it.
Day 3: One More Day
08:00 - WAKE UP!
10:00 - Exploring BSD Green Office Park (GOP):
12:00 - Time to leave, sadly.
13:00 - Airport:
14:00 - Heading Home… & Thinking about noodles (and my experience).
So, there you have it. My semi-structured, often-rambling, gloriously imperfect travel log. Sky House, Tangerang. It wasn't always smooth, the Wi-Fi was a pain, and I may have developed a slight noodle addiction. But it was real. It was vibrant. And it was, in its own messy way, wonderful. Indonesia, I have a feeling this won't be the last time.
Escape to Paradise: Thailand's Hidden White Resort Gem
Welcome to the Unofficial, Maybe-Slightly-Biased Guide to DREAM Studio: Sky House Bliss (BSD Travelio)
Okay, buckle up buttercups. I’ve stayed at the DREAM Studio (yeah, with the capital letters, sounds fancy, right?) at Sky House Bliss in BSD, Tangerang, a bunch of times. And let me tell you, it’s been a journey. This FAQ isn't your typical dry list; it's a raw, unfiltered account of my experience. Prepare for some real talk, some ramblings, and maybe a few tears (of frustration or joy, who knows?). Let's dive in...
What Exactly *Is* DREAM Studio at Sky House Bliss? Sounds Kinda...Vague
Alright, so technically, it's a studio apartment within the Sky House Bliss complex, managed by Travelio. Think Airbnb, but with less… well, personality, sometimes. The DREAM Studio part is, I guess, the unit's name. Marketing, you know? Dreamy. Blissful. My experiences? Well, let's just say they haven't always lived up to the hype.
It's generally a small space, usually a bed, a tiny kitchenette, and a bathroom. Perfect for a quick solo trip or if you're trying to escape your actual life for a few days. Which, let's be honest, is exactly what I often use it for. Don't judge.
Is Sky House Bliss Actually 'Blissful'? (Spoiler Alert: Probably Not Always)
Okay, so the views *can* be pretty amazing. If you get a high floor, you might actually feel like you’re floating on a cloud. Then you get that blissful moment of looking outside and being momentarily transported. But! Be prepared for construction noise. It's Tangerang, after all. Constant. And if you're unlucky (like me, often) your blissful view will be of another building being built. Joy.
The amenities are… decent. A pool's awesome when it's not jam-packed like a sardine tin on a Saturday. The gym? Well, it's there. I go… sometimes… Maybe.
One time, I was chilling by the pool, finally getting some peace and quiet. Then a kid decided the best place to play was right next to me, splashing like a deranged otter. Bliss? Hardly. More like a wet, slightly annoyed me.
The DREAM Studio Itself... Is It Actually Clean? (The Real Question)
Alright, this is where things get dicey. Cleanliness is a roll of the dice, my friend. I've arrived to places that were spotless – genuinely impressed! – and then... well, let's just say I've also found myself battling mysterious stains and rogue dust bunnies the size of small pets.
One time, I swear the comforter was missing a button. I swear I saw something moving. I didn't examine too close. My brain wanted me to sleep, and sleeping was my priority. So it was clean enough, I suppose.
Check the corners. Check under the bed. Okay, I'm gross. I know. But as someone once said, "fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." I've been fooled. More than twice. So, inspect with a critical eye. And maybe bring your own cleaning wipes. Just in case. ALWAYS JUST IN CASE
What About the Kitchenette? Can I Actually Cook? (Or Just Microwave Noodles?)
The kitchenettes are… functional. They usually have a small fridge, a microwave, and maybe a hot plate, and some basic pots. Don't expect to whip up a Michelin-star meal. I'm talking instant noodles, maybe some fried eggs, if you're feeling ambitious.
Utensils are… hit or miss. Sometimes you get a decent set. Other times, you're fighting over a single, dented spoon. One time, I found a fork that looked older than me. And I'm old. It was probably from the first Sky House unit ever built. The struggle is real.
My advice? Lower your expectations. Bring your own snacks. And be prepared to improvise. Also, clean up after yourself, for the love of all that is holy.
Parking: Nightmare or Mild Inconvenience?
Ah, parking in BSD. It's the gift that keeps on giving... headaches. Sky House has parking, but it can be a challenge, especially during peak hours. Expect to circle a few times, maybe compete for spots with what feels like the entire population of Tangerang. It can be a mild inconvenience. Often it is a headache.
I once spent a solid 20 minutes just *looking* for a spot. Eventually, I found one so tight, I had to do a three-point turn just to get out of the car. And then, because fate is cruel, I scraped my bumper. On a DREAM trip. The irony wasn't lost on me.
My advice? Arrive early. Or, if possible, take a Grab/Gojek. Save yourself the stress... and the bumper damage.
Wifi: Will I Actually Be Connected, Or Just Frustrated?
Wifi, the modern traveler's essential. It's usually there, bless its heart. But the speed? Oh, the speed! It can be... inconsistent. One day, zoom. The next... dial-up from the dark ages.
I recall a particular trip where I was trying to work. Important stuff, deadlines looming, the whole shebang. The wifi decided that was the perfect time to take a nap. Hours wasted, emails unsent, stress levels soaring. I ended up tethering to my phone, which, of course, ate up all my data and cost me a small fortune.
My suggestion? Bring your own hotspot. Or download everything you need beforehand. Or maybe just embrace the enforced digital detox. Which, honestly, might be the real 'bliss' in Sky House Bliss.
Travelio Management: Are They Helpful, Or a Source of Further Frustration?
Travelio is the name on the lease, the folks you deal with. The level of help? It's a gamble. I've had smooth check-ins, quick solutions to problems (like, one time, when the AC died, they sorted it *relatively* fast), and efficient service.
Then, there's the other side. The slow responses. The miscommunications. The times when I felt like I was talking to a brick wall. My worst experience? Oh boy. It involved a faulty door lock, a late-night arrival, and a lot of panicked phone calls. I ended up locked out for a solid hour, waiting for someone to come and help. Alone. In the dark. In a place called "Bliss". Let me tell you, it wasn't blissful then.
My advice? Document everything. Take photos. Keep records of communication. And hope for the best. Oh, and pray your door lock works!
