It sucks when hostels put TVs in the dorms. You either have someone who wants to watch TV when everyone else wants to sleep or everyone stays in their room watching the telly and no one socialises in the common areas resulting in a dead atmosphere.
It would be great if you could share your experiences by writing a review here:
