Interesting. I agree well with your extracted list, but when I come to the full list I see that he has included just about everything that a hostel CAN have, which somewhat defeats its purpose. :confused:
Great staff, Complete and spacious kitchen: Excellent!
Gymnastic equipment? Well if the hostel is very big, that would be an asset to a number of guests; but a very big hostel is itself a negative thing in some respects.
I was glad to see that his entertainment centre was mentioned separately from the central gathering area. What too many hostels do is to try to do both of those in the same room :(
It's clear that the author is most familiar with hostels in tropical countries. For a hostel in Scotland you can cross out fans/AC and replace them by "spacious drying room" and "midge-proof windows":)
