Shoutout to the guy in Nashville who told me hostel dorms beat cheap motels
Ten years ago I figured hostels were just for college kids, but a guy at a bus stop in Nashville talked me into trying one for $28 a night instead of the $65 motel down the road. The free breakfast and the people I met ended up saving me way more than the room did. Anyone else switch over to dorms later in life and never look back?
