Network hospitality 
Hostels are not only for that youthful and footloose any longer. Many American hostels have private rooms and cabins for families and small groups. The benefits are cost (as little as $20 per person a couple of dollars greater in big metropolitan areas), location (nearby natural and cultural attractions that families need to see and explore), and the opportunity to meet travelers from around the globe.
While remaining in hostels, you are able to prepare your personal meals inside a fully outfitted common kitchen and socialize along with other hostellers inside a common family room. Clean beds are supplied (take the own linens/sleeping-bags), much like laundry facilities and customary bathrooms with showers. Some hostels request you to do brief chores.
