Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Epic snorer in the room, so after an hour I decided to sleep in the common room. The staff tried to find me another room but it was full. The hostel is cheap and basic, but good for 1 night (if you can sleep). For people who snore really loud, don't sleep on a dorm... Thanks in advance, your fellow traveller

    I traveled to about 20 countries. I always stay in a backpacker place. The best backpacker places I stayed in 20 countries were only 2 of the best. Greece and Konko Hostel. And maybe Konko is the First one in Jakarta or maybe Indonesia.
