TOP 5 RULES WHEN STAYING AT A HOSTEL

Rule #1. Shut the eff up! If you are bunking in a dorm room and come back to your room during the night (regardless of your sobriety levels) please have respect for others that are trying to sleep. Don't start going through your bag or trying to whisper to your friends. Go outside with that noise and allow fellow travelers a peaceful nights' rest.

Rule #2. Don't occupy the bathroom for getting ready. After you use the restroom and or shower get dressed and vacate the bathroom so other people have access to use it. There is always limited bathrooms in hostels, so please be courteous of other travelers with different travel schedules and needs.

Rule #3. Please don't have sex in dorm rooms. I mean, really? It is the most disgusting thing to hear and witness someone else having sex. Get a private room or be creative...go take a shower or something. It is a hostel, not a brothel. Get it together!

Rule #4. Don't clutter the entire room with all the contents of your backpack. Reorganize your life on your bed. A dorm room is a SHARED room so don't be messy and disgusting. Leave the common areas clean and clutter free, please and thank you.

Rule #5. It is more of a request than a rule. I understand you can't necessarily control your snoring but at least try to not fall asleep on your back, or be mad if your woken up for excessive snoring. I know it's not your fault but try not to be the most hated person in the room.
