bit of truth in all that. We have stayed for many years at the GG on JL Kartika Plaza. We were disappointed to see that while their food prices have gone up about 30%(which is fair enough, will all the price increases), that the serving and quality would be down by almost 30%.
We booked & paid IN FULL, about 9 months in advance, requesting a ground floor room.
I have a back injury and cannot climb flights of stairs, particularly several times a day.
This apparently was impossible, because all the others were booked and paid in full more than 9 months in advance!! Forgive me for being a little skeptical with regards to that.
We stayed for a month in May, and many of the repeat guests also were not particularly happy with the new regime.
The staff in the GG are lovely, but honestly the management really no longer care. I suspect that they have simply become so popular they can afford to wipe us off.
