I was looking at the Wikipedia hostel page and the photos of dorm rooms don't look very good (except the one at the top).
Here are three photos that I think could be replaced:
The photos are overexposed, and one of the dorm rooms is dirty.

I removed the photo of the chaotic looking dorm from the "disadvantages" section of the hostels article and replaced it with a photo of a large locker with electronic key-card.
I think many people read the Wikipedia page and it's better to show something positive about hostels than negative. Theft can be a disadvantage, but many hostels offer sturdy lockers...

We don't mind if you want to use this picture instead... ;)

Is it okay to license it under a Creative Commons and/or GDFL licence? That means anyone can reuse it as long as they attribute credit.
(It's required to license Wikipedia content that way.)
I changed two of the images already -- I could use that for the 3rd :)

The images have been changed -- the page looks much better now :)

This photo needed to be changed -- if the hotel page doesn't have a photo of a rundown, dirty hotel, why does the hostel page have to have a dirty hostel dorm?

Thanks! The page looks much better indeed... :)
Smaller hostels have problems to make decent pictures... When a place is full, rooms often look messy until everyone checks out.
I made these new pictures like a week ago, just before Christmas (we've been closed during Christmas, the only time when we shut the place) and there was a desperate need to replace our photos which has been taken about two years ago...
