Lodging

Hostels: The hostel is an incredible alternative to staying in the more expensive motel or hotel. The heart of hostelling is the communal nature of the hostel usually reserved for international travelers. Typically all the space is shared: the bedroom (or dormitory), the kitchen, and the bathrooms. The beds are usually bunk beds and the top bunks may be the only ones available. Some places have segregated bathrooms, some not. It may be difficult for some people to enjoy hostelling and maintain a very high degree of modesty. On the other hand, the hostelling population is accustomed to sharing space and generally privacy isn’t and shouldn’t be an issue.
