Wasn't two years ago same year as you, I used the laundry you recommended and they were great Wayan and his wife Nyoman and their little boy Agus. I used them again this year in May and they are no longer living there but the laundry is still going but I think someone else is doing it. Ironing not as good and I think they are being hand washed. Made friend with them all and gave them all presents. Thank god I took extra as it ended up three families all related to Wayan. They have a little business on the land across from the Villa Bintang selling drinks and snacks to the locals. Restaurant that was at the lane before the laundry closed (nyoman's I think it was called) closed and a nightclub opened. Wasn't doing to well when we were there in May. Little old lady who looks after the temple out front is still there and they have a new temple. We didn't stay at the Villa Bintang last trip stayed at the Aston Bali. Went down to the Villa Bintang for a massage and see some of the staff. Rocky and Sars still there and so was Rambo the dog. Took him dog food and smackos. Anything else you want to know just ask.
