Well done!

Did you get a good deal?

**kiwichick** · 03-19-2007, 01:26 AM

umm wel its 36euro pp staying in a 6 bed dorm which i guess isnt amazin but pretty damn good in comparison to what else i could find:D !its also midweek not wknd, cos trying to find accomodation over the wknds was pretty tough plus the weekdays sound a lil easier going

we look at the tent instead for bout 18euro but decided the hostel would be better.

Yeah that sounds like a pretty good price.

Congrats

That's a good price considering the time that you are going there...beware of the evil credit card, it has sucked me in but is the only way that I can affor my lifestyle

Congrats!! Hostels are alot of fun, I actually like staying in them more than staying in a hotel by myself. I just like to be around people I guess, plus the shit that happens at all the ones Ive stayed at.................. well youll find that out soon enough, dont want to blow it for you. I hate credit card!!!!! at one time they consumed my life. I had to tear a couple up, it was getting bad.
