]]>Most travelers staying at hostels book a bed in shared dorms, but the lack of privacy is their biggest downfall. If you don’t want to share a room with other people, private rooms are your only option, but they usually don’t come cheap.
Hostels also offer other shared spaces, such as shared kitchens where you can prepare your own meals and a common room where you can mingle with other travelers. Everyone’s welcome here, but it’s still important to respect other’s people space and privacy.
Hostels can only afford to be that cheap because they don’t offer any fancy amenities that other types of accommodation provide. That’s why it’s always a good idea to bring your own towels and toiletries and expect a modest breakfast—or no breakfast at all.
Safety is one of the biggest concerns with people staying at hostels, but they’re generally considered safe. Even if you’re staying at a dorm, lockers will be provided, but it’s also a good idea to look for a hostel in a safe neighborhood with a 24/7 reception.

]]>Before making your booking, take some time to go through the reviews left by the previous guests. They’ll tell you all you need to know about the hostel you’re thinking of booking, giving you all the info about cleanliness, comfort level of beds, and quality of other amenities at the hostel.
Even if the hostel has a good comfort rating, you should still bring some essentials that can help you make the best of your stay. Earplugs and an eye mask are a must, especially if you’re staying at a dorm with no privacy curtains, but bringing your own pillowcase and sheets can also help.
Hostel dorms are definitely the cheapest type of accommodation on the market, but they’re not everyone’s cup of tea. If you’re craving some more privacy, getting your own room is also an option, but you can also consider booking a smaller dorm with a private bathroom if a private room doesn’t fit into your budget.

]]>You should always look for hostels that offer communal kitchens, lounges, or bars where guests can easily interact and mingle with each other. It’s much easier to make new friends when there’s an area where you can all gather and share your stories.
It’s also worth looking for a hostel that offers a wide range of activities where guests can easily start a conversation without any pressure, from pub crawls and walking tours to board games and movie nights.
Co-living spaces are experiencing a huge boom right now, especially when it comes to slow travel. They often organize communal dinners, movie nights, or workshops where guests can interact with each other.
Party hostels are not always ideal for travelers seeking a peaceful and quiet night’s sleep, but if you’re in the mood to party all night while on the road, they’ll help you meet a lot of new people and have an epic time.

]]>The main reason why hostels and work trips don’t mix so well together is the lack of privacy. You’ll struggle to find a quiet and focused work environment in the lively hostel setting, but you can deal with this issue by using noise-canceling headphones or booking a private room.
Hostels don’t always have such a great Wi-Fi connection, but you might find yourself dealing with this problem in other types of accommodation, as well. Make sure to check the reviews before making your booking and check if other guests had any trouble with the internet connection.
Some coworking-orientated hostels offer dedicated workspaces, business centers, and meeting rooms, but this is extremely rare. It’s highly unlikely you’ll have a dedicated working area unless you’re staying in a private room, but you can always try to book a hostel that offers a comfy desk and table you can use in the dorm or common room.

]]>Locals not only know the city best, but they know the best places to go out to eat, where to get the best drink, and where to dance the night away. Even though you can sometimes get good information online, talking to somewhere who lives there is always the best way to go.

If you’re staying at a hostel, make friends with the people at the front desk or other staff members! Most likely they will give you generic recommendations, but if you befriend them they are much more likely to go into the nitty-gritty and tell you the real dirt about the city.
Explore places outside the city center and start talking to people. Even though not everyone you meet will speak English, be patient and you can probably make some new friends and get some good dirt.
