The Aston has a huge breakfast buffet, from waffles and omelettes to extensive Indonesian offerings, and decent coffee, with espresso drinks available. There also is a bar and restaurant on the roof, with nice views out over the city and a selection of cocktails. The hotel has a good swimming pool. The windows are thick enough that the call to prayer was nearly inaudible in the rooms. We did the two-night strategy and it worked out just fine. Restaurants: We took a cab to Pizzeria Terraza di Sorong, I think it was 250k IDR each way) and had a very nice meal. Also, the food on the roof of the Aston was serviceable.
