I really liked hostels when I was traveling alone, but then again I was in my 20's.

Shoot, my wife and I used to do hostels all the time when we lived in Germany.

We were also in our 20s/early 30s though.

Now, we want the privacy.

Then you're gonna love this set of movies about people traveling and visiting various hostels.

It's even called "Hostel", look it up.

And if you don't want spoilers, better not look it up, just get it and enjoy watching!

I love how realistic they are too, almost documentary-esque in how it portrays the average hostel experience.

I guess. I lost count of the times that someone who’d never left my home town told me I was going to get Hostel’d when I studied abroad.

Woke up from a coma and wondering why someone connected their Tivo to the internet.

I've stayed in a hostel that has private rooms or smaller shared rooms that were empty too, still cheaper than a hotel and ABnB.
