Dorm Room


Joey shot this picture of our dorm room at The Inn Crowd to show people back home one of the kind of places we are staying in. We generally stay in dorms about five out of seven nights. They are cheaper and often the only thing available without a reservation. This dorm has sixteen beds; we like to look for dorms with four to six beds. Fewer people = less noise. This room is spacious enough that you don't notice how many other people are staying there. Also, good ear plugs are a must.

This has been a great place to stay. The people are friendly and helpful. The common areas are inviting and the bathrooms are generally pretty clean.

Yup, they are definitely concrete but concrete feels so nice and cool on your barefeet when it is in the low nineties outside.
The main part of the hostel was not as clean as the second building. I think they stuck most of the older people in the second building. Not as much drinking means not as disgusting of bathrooms. The vibe in the main building made moving to it worthwhile, even with the not quite so spotless bathroom.
One thing we have learned about hostelling is to figure out when the bathrooms are cleaned and try to take your shower right after.
