Well, they have a depot kinda close to the Grand Hyatt. However, since we were the only passengers, we politely asked for a drop off at the lobby, for a very modest tip. Saved schlepping bags, getting a taxi there, etc.

X-Trans (and many others), have depots in different suburbs, and areas of the cities. So you can go from the airport to Bandung, Bekasi, etc. Or go from Bandung to Bekasi. The depots are scattered around the city, so you need to know which location matches up to which. A bit confusing, but it works out okay.
