COVID will alter hostelling. Many hostels have remained shuttered since the pandemic started, and some of those hostels aren't going to re-open.
I figure some will but many won't reopen if they closed.
I stayed in one in Seattle at the start of one tour. It was an interesting experience, but not my preferred mode of touring. I prefer to mostly stay out of urban settings on tour. Another was in Marathon, TX on another tour, it was interesting as well. Again more of an interesting diversion than my preferred mode of touring. Weird place...
