Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Hostels (but were afraid to ask)
Other kinds of accommodation: B&B’s - Campsites - Apartments - Guest Houses
Different kinds of hostels (Hostels in the country, in the city, etc.)
If you are travelling for a long time, buy yourself a good backpack, which fits you comfortably, and do not exceed in loading it - a heavy backpack can be very painful to carry when it’s summer and it’s hot. Choose comfortable shoes, and keep cool shoes for evenings out.
Hostels most often provide you with sheets (often at an extra cost), but you should bring your own, just in case. Some hostels might not allow sleeping bags, for reasons of hygiene (you might have been sleeping anywhere with a sleeping bag, and hostelling is not the same thing as camping).
Some hostels will provide you with a so-called sleep-sheet, which is two sheets sewn together, so they form a sort of sack. This way the bed stays clean. It is not as common as it used to be years ago.
You should also bring your own soap and towels, since only some hostels provide these, usually with an extra charge.
