HOSTELLING
- A hostel is similar to a hotel, but with some important differences. Hostels usually don't have private rooms; you might have to share a room with several other people whom you don't know. Hostels usually don't have private bathrooms; there's often a large bathroom which is shared by people from several rooms. Hostels are usually much cheaper than hotels; you can sometimes stay in a hostel for $10 to $20 per night! At a hostel it's easy to meet people from all over the world, make new friends, and practice English. Many students like to stay in hostels when they're traveling. On your next vacation, try hostelling! For more information on hostels, try these sites:
