Couple in the Next Room

The couple in the next room might not win a prize but they made an effort early in the evening before going out pubbing. On their return, I was woken from a shallow sleep and lay there waiting for the fun to begin. It didn't, thankfully, but I couldn't fall back asleep.

My aversion to hostels came in 1981, when I spent a night or two at the "Tilton Hilton," a flophouse next to the police station in Key West. But I've found my stay here at the Abbey Tourist Hostel in Ennis more than tolerable. For one, they have free internet!
