We love booking private rooms in hostels, you get the privacy, kitchen and still get to meet other travellers

A1 I prefer a comfortable independent hotel, but sometimes a hostel is all I can afford. All hostels need privacy curtains on the beds. #TRLT

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @FunInFairfax @junkkDNA A1 For me it's all about comfort and location. I don't drive so it must be near a town/ train station. Other than that, I like to feel a bit luxurious on holiday and somewhere with a good bar helps 👍 #trlt
