A candid look at the hostel industry in America, told from the perspective of a backpacker who spent more than a year cycling through various hostels, living out of the same bag while swapping out bunks as they became available. Drawing on a compilation of interviews, essays, and reflections from the road, Zack Reed confronts the misconceptions and assumptions surrounding the American hostel industry, illustrating along the way many of the characters, uncomfortable moments, and indelible memories that make up traveling as a solo backpacker in hostels.
