Hotel or Hostel?
January 5th, 2007
I’m off to Spain this Sunday, starting off with four days in Barcelona. Do I:
- Stay in a hotel, where I can crash, chill out in peace, snore to my heart’s content, and enjoy a shower all to myself, but possibly have less fun
- Stay in a hostel, where I will feel bad about keeping my dormmates awake with my snoring, may have to try and sleep despite someone else snoring, be ignored by moody guitar-playing Israelis, share a coin-operated shower with forty other people, but probably have more fun
?

Hostel, absolutely. And surely the fact that it’s cheaper counts for it? Hotel is for couples and people who don’t want to meet people and make friends while they’re there.
I think you are right. You’re good like that.
you’re not going there to meet people…you’re going there to see Barcelona. Hotel comfort all the way!
Hotel comfort costs ten times as much!
… that said, I am staying in a hotel.
