Hello Jet-Set Party People,

I'm psyched about my up-coming trip (May 17-July 6), but I was wondering how far in advance should I book my hostel stay? My tentative itinerary thus far is to fly into London, then train it to France, Spain, Portugal, France then back to London, where I will depart back to LA. I've been using the Hostel search on this site (which is really handy!) and have already booked my first 4 nights in London. At the moment, I'm thinking that booking via Travelpunk's site will be the main way I find a place to crash. My question is, will the prices on the websites change if I don't lock in my reservation now? I know that availability may be an issue if I don't book ahead, but my main concern is the possible price increase when peak season is in full swing. If I don't book ahead, how easy is it to find CHEAP accomodations in a major city? Any insight would be much appreciated!
