+A comfortable stay with a common area to relax outside of rooms. Hot and cold water urn in common area. Close to the mall in a safe quiet area. Free breakfast :)
−I had some trouble getting recommendations or advice on activities. Staff are not motivated to discuss or assist- just say look on Google. There are 'to do' books available at the breakfast table, but they are mostly out of date. It's missing a 'vibe' for travellers. This could be easily solved by setting something similar to a set group chat session each day/evening where interested travellers can meet and share/plan ideas or activities. There is enough space, it would only require a 'Meet here @time' sign on a table. This would be great, especially for travellers to share expenses with others going to the same place.

+I really enjoyed my stay at Laura's Backpacker. It felt more like staying in a friendly neighborhood than simply staying at a hostel. The neighborhood was lovely, and I had some really nice interactions with local people. And of course, I absolutely loved the cats! 🐱 The place was comfortable and had a very relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. I actually liked the feeling of being part of the neighborhood for a few days. I later needed to stay a little longer before taking a night train, so I arranged an extra half-day directly at the property. It was more expensive than booking online, but that was my own decision and not really a problem with the stay. Overall, I have very warm memories of Laura's Backpacker and would happily stay here again.

“Moyen”
+L’emplacement est top, à proximité immédiate de la gare. Un warung de top qualité est au croisement de la rue principale et de la rue du logement. Je recommande d’y aller.
−La propreté laissait un petit peu à désirer. Les équipements sanitaires… Café à disposition ? Visiblement nous en étions privé. La fontaine à eau produit de l’eau tiède, ce qui n’est pas optimal, bien que cela serve pour le brossage des dents. Petit déjeuner inclus… il s’agit d’une banane et de quelques morceaux de papaye avec 1 crêpe à la coco. D’autant que nous avons été privé de notre premier petit déjeuner car l’hôte avait oublié… pourtant inclus dans le prix de la chambre et du séjour.

“Sehr toller Aufenthalt mit Mangelnder Hygiene”
+Die Kommunity war total toll dort. Man lernt super schnell tolle Leute kennen. Die Mitarbeiter waren alle sehr freundlich. Das Beste am Aufenthalt war das Abendessen, das jeden Abend frisch für alle gekocht wurde. Um Leute kennen zu lernen mit einem netten und freundlichen vibe ist die Unterkunft perfekt.
−Die Unterkunft war leider sehr dreckig. Im Zimmer waren viele Tiere und es hat abgestanden und eklig gerochen. Die Toiletten sind ein Albtraum.

+Die Lage war extrem zentral und man war eher unter Einheimischen. Sehr schöner Gemeinschaftsraum (viele Pflanzen, Bücher, Spiele und Sitzmöglichkeiten).
