Summary: I had a fantastic time at Original Backpackers Guesthouse! First of all, the accessibility is excellent. It’s conveniently located near major attractions, making it easy to get around. Public transportation is also easily accessible, so traveling was hassle-free. The cleanliness of the guesthouse was also impressive. Both the common areas and the rooms were well-maintained, and the hygiene standards were excellent, providing a comfortable and pleasant stay. Most importantly, the staff were incredibly friendly. From the moment I arrived, they gave me a warm welcome and provided helpful travel information. Their kindness and hospitality made my stay even more enjoyable. One of the highlights was the opportunity to engage in free-talking with travelers from different countries. The lounge area was a great place to meet new people, share travel experiences, and create meaningful connections. If you’re looking for a cozy place with a friendly atmosphere where you can meet fellow travelers, I highly recommend staying here. I would love to visit again!
