Hostels for a Newbie

Hostels 101

For the first time backpacker, the word hostel can conjure up images of characterless, large, industrial rooms with dozens of beds full of homeless people and managed by nuns. This can’t be further from the truth. In fact, the hostel is the social epicenter and refuge for those traveling on a budget. Nowadays, most hostels don’t have a curfew, are independent and full of character.
