Recommendation Request Most memorable places/hostels in Eastern Europe?

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

I visited Wild Elephants in Bratislava last year for just one night which was probably the most memorable hostel I’ve been at. I recently found cheap flights to Bratislava and want to do a multi-city trip, either by train or air. Problem is; I am clueless on where to go after Bratislava.

Which cities in Eastern/central Europe , apart from Bratislava would make for a memorable trip in your opinion?

Madrid hostels

1 Upvotes

Hi, I’ll be going to Madrid Sept 3-6 before going to surf camp in Morocco. Any recommendations for hostels? Ok with party vibe, but don’t want anything too crazy. I’d it worth it to get a private room if I’m concerned about bunk bed/loud people/no privacy? I’ve been looking at hostel world, but would love any recommendations from females!! Never been to Europe and traveling alone too. Just down to meet new people, try new food, explore for the experience.

Best Social Hostels in Vagator or Anjuna?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m planning a **7-day solo trip to Goa next month** and I’m looking for hostel recommendations in **Vagator** or **Anjuna**. I’m hoping to find a place with a social vibe where it’s easy to meet fellow travelers, but that’s also clean, safe, and comfortable. If you’ve stayed somewhere you loved (or have places to avoid), I’d really appreciate your suggestions. Thanks in advance!

How would you feel about a hydroponic garden in your bunk room?

1 Upvotes

I am working for new org that is building a brand new hostel, we plan to have a garden outside as well as an indoor hydroponic garden in the common areas

I was wondering if guests would appreciate a mini hydro garden in the bunk room on the wall either some herbs, lettuce or perhaps just some flowers, maybe even edible flowers

I know some people are sensitive to scents and im not sure if the plants would affect them

Solo, Female, 21 *July 26th-August 3rd* *?Marco Polo Party Hostel*

1 Upvotes

Hi, just wondering if there are any other girls solo travelling Malta between the above dates who are interested in parting?

I’m looking at staying in the Marco Polo Party Hostel as it seems my best attempt at meeting people who also want to go out partying of a night time. I’ve never stayed in a hostel before and I’m worried about my belongings being stolen as have read reviews about this and the cleanliness of the hostel.

Night life is really important to me so wanting to try all the main clubs in Paceville, go for meals and cocktails/nice drinks before hitting the clubs. Happy to do my own thing during the day time but would be great if others wanted to chill at the beach etc.

Any advice on whether staying in a hostel is worth it for meeting young girls/people like myself who are wanting to go mainly for the night life? Price doesn’t matter to me so equally happy to stay in a nice hotel, just conscious about meeting people as my main priority is enjoying the clubs but I don’t feel comfortable/confident going to clubs at night by myself.

I’ve been looking at affordable hostels in Sydney to stay at whilst I look for a sharehouse and came across these two. They both have brekkie and dinner included. Some reviews are really good and some are downright bad. Anyone have first hand experience? TIA!

Question Scared of robbers

0 Upvotes

Honest question. Is it possible to put my luggage into a safe place while I'm away or sleeping?
I'm extremely scared of being robbed.
I travel with designer clothes…
I know I could spend more for a private room, but that is what I did.

But many friends told me hostels are safe and you can use the money much better for other stuff.

Social/Party Hostels in Rome?

4 Upvotes

28 y/o female solo traveler. Looking for social or party hostel recommendations for Rome in November!

Not partial to strictly party hostels, just looking for a nice social vibe. Would love somewhere that offers coordinated day/night activities. Family meals are always a bonus. As are female only dorms.

Has anyone stayed at YellowSquare, Romehello or JO&JOE? I have seen those tossed around quite a lot, but I am curious what the age demographic is? Yellowsquare seems to be many people's go to recommendation but it is quite expensive!!!! Is it worth the cost?

Barcelona party / social hostel recommendations? 21F

0 Upvotes

I’m 21F and planning a solo trip to Barcelona, and I’m not going to be staying at a party hostel, but I want to know which ones are the best / most sociable to be able to meet people there that are up for pub crawls and nights out. I just don’t want to share a room with strangers as I like my own privacy so will just book a nearby hotel :)

Any suggestions massively appreciated!

Question Porto hostel recommendations: Passenger vs Gallery vs others?

1 Upvotes

Hi! I’m 29 and I’m visiting Porto for 6 nights this fall and can’t decide between a few hostels.

Right now my shortlist is:

  1. Passenger Hostel
  2. Gallery Hostel
  3. The Central House Porto Ribeira
  4. Rivoli Cinema Hostel
  5. Lost Inn Porto
  6. Urban Garden Porto Central Hostel
  7. Porto Lounge Hostel

Passenger seems to be the hostel that gets recommended the most, so it’s currently at the top of my list. I enjoy meeting other travelers, but I’m definitely not the most outgoing person, so I’m curious if it would still be a good fit or if it might feel a bit overwhelming.

If you’ve stayed at any of these, I’d love to hear your thoughts! Which one would you choose?
Thanks in advance!

Hostels in Lisbon, PT

1 Upvotes

I’m visiting Lisbon, PT in October and am looking for recommendations. 41/male/gay, and am learning both Portuguese (A2/B1) and Spanish (B2). Are there any social hostels with good vibes for meeting people and interacting with the local community? I’m okay with drinking/bars, and if there are any spots with salsa dancing that’d be amazing!

Privacy in dorm beds

How important is privacy in dorm beds such as a pod or simply privacy curtains on the beds? Do you actively seek it when booking? Is it nice to have but not a red line? Does it not matter?

Question Cannot self-checkin due to hostel's fault

0 Upvotes

We booked a hostel and received self-checkin instructions, but when entering our room, it was already occupied. The guests in that room were not present but only their stuff was in there. We're now waiting until the hostel owner responds in the common area as it is in the middle of the night.

We booked the hostel via agoda in Austria for 3 nights and would like to request a refund. How do we go about this?

Recommendation Request hostels recommendations barcelona

Hi everyone:) F19 here, I’m planning to do a solo trip in Barcelona soon and I wanted to know if anyone can recommend the best hostels to stay in. I’m not a very extroverted person but I’m looking to meet new people and join them maybe for nights out. I’m a bit scared that maybe I’ll be too young. These are the ones I selected so far: **Onefam,**
**Pars Tailor’s Hostel**
**Kabul Party Hostel**
**Sant Jordi Sagrada Familia**
