What Differentiates a Great Hostel From an Average Hostel

Hostel is slowly achieving the title as one of the best accommodation options of today. Because it gives travelers the opportunity to meet strangers and new faces easily, it has become the top pick of most solo travelers and backpackers. In the event that you plan to stay in a hostel anytime soon, here are some of the things that would differentiate a great hostel from an average one:

·         A bar with real great drinks

Most hostels offer bars for where their guests can enjoy, socialize and hang out. At times, there are bartenders while others only have a refrigerator where you can get drinks and stuff. Well, a great hostel has it all—a decent size bar, a bartender and plenty of types of beer, ranging from cheap and local beer to imported ones. If you are a woman, then you may wish to look for hostels with bars that offer wide range of cocktails. The best hostels also have the perfect location for their bars—on a rooftop or outside in their tended harden.

·         A great hangout space

In addition to a bra, the hostel should also have a common space where their guests can relax, have fun and meet new people without any alcohol involved in the equation. The bar should not only be the common area in the hostel. The other common area should have a wide and open space with plenty of tables, chairs and couches. The hostel should offer plenty of choices to eat, write, read, sit down and entertain themselves. This corner is perfect for those people who do not drink because contrary to popular belief, not all travelers drink.

·         A full set breakfast

When you take a look at the website of most hostels, you would often see these two words “free breakfast”. For sure, people would love anything free, right? Well, that is not the case in most hostels. This is because some of the breakfast options of most hostels are quite limited and might not even give you the fuel you need to start your day. A great hostel offers a full set breakfast that will satisfy your cravings.

·         Strong Wifi Connection

We all know that you are not traveling just to get some good wifi but most travelers would surely wish to keep in touch with their family and friends back home and the best way to do that is through the Internet.

Choosing a good hostel is the most complicated trick in the traveler’s book. But with some research and by keeping the differences mentioned above in mind, you are rest assured that you can find your way to the best hostel that you can ever stay in.
