To save money, some backpackers opt to stay in dorms.
But for one traveller, Laurel, her experience wasn't the most enjoyable.
In a TikTok video uploaded on March 13, the young woman, who is embarking on a solo trip after her graduation, shared her unpleasant time at the $20 dorm she stayed in.
She told AsiaOne that the dorm is Betel Box Backpackers Hostel.
"Well... this is an experience," she said in the captions.
At the start of the 11-second clip, she showed her view from the top bunk of one of the beds in the dorm, which can fit 20 people.
There were bunk beds on both sides of the room and these were separated by a row of wooden cupboards.
But what really creeped Laurel out was the security camera pointed right in her direction.
"Cameras filming you sleep," she said.
She also shared that the toilet bowl and shower were both in the same place without any partition.
