Had a fun stay at Laughing Leopard and met some nice people. The free family dinner is very tasty and a great way for everyone to get together and socialize. Good vibes overall!

However the rooms got so cold at night that it would keep you up, even if you put on multiple layers. The shower also did not have hot water most of the time, so it was kind of brutal taking a cold shower at temperatures as low as 8°c in the morning or evening. Feel like they could improve regarding these points :)

Het hostel is fijn ingericht. Ik sliep in de 4-persoons female dorm. Er was aanliggend een badkamer, en alle bedden hadden een gordijn, stopcontact en lampje. Ook waren en kluisjes in de kamer (zelf slot mee). De kamer wordt elke dag schoongemaakt. Buiten de kamer om waren er ook diverse plekjes op het terrein waar je kon zitten of chillen. Er is ook een kleine "keuken" met ijskast en magnetron die door gasten kan worden gebruikt. Daarnaast heb je gratis koffie, thee en gefilterd water. 's Avonds is er een familiediner met lekker eten. Het hostel is ongeveer 25min lopen van de Lover Leap waterval. Daarnaast organiseren ze allerlei uitjes vanuit het hostel. Het personeel is erg behulpzaam en aardig, en kon tips geven over hikes in de omgeving. Er logeren veel soloreizigers dus je kan er perfect heen als je in je eentje bent.

De harde muziek 's avonds vond ik persoonlijk niet erg fijn. Er werd harde techno gedraaid die niet echt bij de sfeer paste, maar ook tot in de kamers te horen was. In principe speelt de muziek door tot 12u snachts (of eerder als iedereen naar bed gaat). Gelukkig werd het volume wel zachter gedraaid nadat ik dat had gevraagd. Ook was het eten 3 dagen achter elkaar hetzelfde. Ik vind het niet erg want vind rice & curry erg lekker maar misschien als je er langer dan een week zit het niet ideaal is (;
