    Hi,
    I'm looking to get away for a while between the end of august and middle of september with a friend for about 2 weeks to anywhere but Ireland/UK, were thinking along the lines of Spain mostly.

    A hostel will do fine, the cheaper the holiday, the better. Don't want to end up in a dump, nothing too dodgy either:)

    I'm 21 so that may help too:)

    Any feedback appreciated:)

    These are star ratings based on the accomodation on offer

    Ah I see now, different hotels on different links, thanks:)

    El Cheapo it is for me anyway:D bring on the insect infestation in the bathroom, I'll be ready. :cool:

    The AI indicated above the price is for All Inclusive.

    Having just come back from an all inclusive with Direct, it would be well worth a look......

    Free alocohol for 12 hours (min.) a day and all the food you can eat......
