Hostels Belgium, Netherlands, & Luxembourg

This books really tells it like no other guide book. I would recommend it above Let's Go and others. It thoroughly reviews the ups and downs of hostelling in these countries. Obviously, the main attractions are the cities of Brussels and Amsterdam, and it covers the hostels there superbly, but if you want to explore the real local towns of these countries and you want to do it on a budget, this book describes the lesser known areas of these countries which you can see by staying at hostels. No other guide book lists every hostel available to the independent traveler. It's loaded with social criticism as well. And it's funny!Forget Rick Steves, his books are for older folks. If you're young and hip, you'll enjoy these far more!
