Hostels are no longer limited to roving revelers and broke backpackers, and we aren’t surprised.
By booking a hostel, families get a large multi-bed room for a low cost, a kitchen they can use so they don’t have to drag the children to an overpriced restaurant and friendly staff, who are ready and willing to cater to your family’s needs. For these reasons, parents are starting to books hostels for their family vacas.
