   'Hostelworld says' description

   

   Hostelworld recommended hostels now have additional content sections. Firstly there's the 'Hostelworld says' section which has been written by us for the hostel. We've written this as we are personally recommending this hostel. The other, which is under the standard 'Property Information' is written by a member of the hostel’s staff giving you their opinion on what their hostel has to offer. These hostels also have a 'Best For' section, stating for what type of traveller or trip they are best suited.

   So if you’re planning a trip to any of these cities and are looking for the most popular and sought-after hostels, the most secure and reliable and ones that are officially recommended by us, keep an eye out for the Hostelworld Recommends icon.
