Default New to staying in hostels

Hi everyone,

I was just wondering if some of you more travelled people maybe able to give me some info on hostels in San Francisco, Seattle and Chicago and thank you to the person who wrote on her stay at the Big Apple in NY. Which are the cleanest and safest?

I am 58 yrs old (a with-it nannie) and wondered about travel between Amtrak Station and the hostels (do they come pick you up like here in Australia?).

I would also like to know about the possibility of bedbugs...is there any insect repellent that you can use so they stay away??? Not really familiar with them but know they have a high occurance of them on the dive boats here out of Cairns Qld.

Many thanks guys and look forward to your answers to my many questions.

Cheers Marg
