Hostels And Cheap Tourism Interesting
Hostels are not hotels, and you should be aware of the differences. While some people do not enjoy it at all costs, some of us love.
Hostels are a cheap travel travelers secret budget. They have been around in one form or another for a long time, and is oriented towards young travelers and others seeking affordable housing. The American version, used to be more complicated, with guests helping with tasks. They are simpler today. You rent a bed instead of a room, shared bathroom, lounge and kitchen. Homes Less privacy, but cheaper, and you get to socialize.
My first time in Quito, Ecuador I stayed at the Center of the World, a hostel near the center of the area they call "Gringolandia". $ 4 per night with breakfast included. I shared a room and bathroom with four others, and a TV room with guests from 14 countries, and channels in three languages. It was clean and comfortable, with a trunk lock next to each bed for valuables.
For 80 cents I could have a rum and coke brought to me while I play chess with a flower-buyer from Holland. The manager can arrange anything from $ 15 walks in the snow-capped volcano Cotapaxi at $ 2 per hour Spanish lessons. Friday night, the ROM was purchased by the manager and there was a party in the courtyard.
Hostel is for you?
Not all hostels are as much fun as I lived in Quito, nor any traveler will have the kind of place. I happen to like hostels, but most travelers will not. I would like mingling with travelers around the world. "Mixture" of course, could mean sleeping next to a snorer.
In a hotel, you are more isolated than at a hostel, but a private room has its advantages. I'm sure the idea of ??sharing a room is too expensive for some people waiting to use the shower. An inn is definitely a different experience to stay in a hotel.
Even if they are the same price, I prefer a hostel to the hotel, but one of the main reasons people stay in hostels is to save money. For this, they are a good option when traveling alone. When my wife and I travel together now, we do not stay in hostels often. You pay for two beds, after all, making hotels more competitive.
Some hostels have private rooms. If you are not sure they like the idea of ??sharing a room, but you like the idea of ??a more social, ask about it. Sometimes you can even get a private room with bathroom.
Hostels are not as common in the United States and other countries, unless you include "bed and breakfast" places. It's a bit like the high-priced houses, but with private rooms. Fortunately, there are still some shelters regularly in almost all states, and are always a good choice if you want an alternative (and expensive) trip.
