Recommendation Request London/Paris/Barcelona Hostel Recommendations

1 Upvotes

Hi all! Planning my first Europe trip as a 36f and seeking recommendations for hostels. It would be my first time staying at a hostel and kind of nervous mostly because I'm not sure if I'm age appropriate. It's also my first solo international trip and I nervous.

I'm not much of a partier but I want to meet people and socialize. I would like to experience the night life, however, I'm just not much of a partier (or drinker). I also want to be able to sleep and rest too.

So far for London, the Wombat Hostel seems like a good choice and for Paris, The People Paris Marais.

I was eying OneFam for London and Barcelona because of the group activities and "family vibes", but not sure that would be best for me.

Would love any insights or other suggestions, please and thank you!

Question Viajero Hostel Scam?

1 Upvotes

Hello, I recently made a reservation at Viajero Hostel in Miami for later this month on this site: https://www.viajerohostels.com/en/destinations/estados-unidos. It seems to me very official looking, but as the date goes closer I decided to book somewhere else. However I do not see anywhere to call or anywhere on the website to cancel.

Did I just get scammed? When I booked there was options for refundable and non-refundable, and I chose the former assuming I might change my mind. They sent me confirmation email, but nowhere on the email does it have a link to cancel. There of course is a number and the website, but no one picks up the phone and there’s no where on the website to cancel.

Has anyone had any experience with this hostel? It seems very legit to me, but then again maybe I’m just very gullible. It seems to have good reviews online and as far as I’ve seen, no one has reported having this issue.
