Sleep on the cheap

Swanky digs are nice, sure, but cutting back on lodging costs helps you save dough for the important things in life, like 30-racks. Enter: Hostels. Nowadays, you can find budget- oriented accommodations with loads of perks: free breakfast, après parties and more. Plus, what’s not to love about the sociability factor? Below, we list some of our favorite hostels that are situated close to some of the raddest skiing out there.
