In every hostel:

Each dorm has bunk beds for 4 to 6 people. The bathrooms are mostly inside the room but sometimes there can be big shared ones on the floor.
-
They are all super clean, hygienic and safe. Everyone gets a personal locker to keep their valuables.

We also pay for your fresh towel, which are generally not included by default.

Its a much better and comfortable experience compared to staying in a European 3 star hotel.

You get to use big common areas to hangout with the group.

Community kitchens in some hostels where you can cook your own meals, which is very helpful for vegetarians.
It is also possible to upgrade to a double sharing room at an additional cost. Please let us know at the time of booking.
