I need opinions

Hi guys,

I'm loving reading your posts... i want to have an hostel too!! But i'm not sure it is a good idea. I'd like to have your opinions. I'm in a little village in Portugal. The tourism here is basically surf and golf... Two very different targets. However i believe everything has to be done yet... there's a lot more to do. My problem is... do you think 4 rooms with 4 bunk beds are enough to keep it going? The tax rate will never be 100%. The season here starts more or less in April to end in October. I should have another occupation, but then who would look after it? Is it safe to leave backpackers alone? Any ideas?

best regards
