I lived in backpackers for a few years (usually staying in a room with 3-4 people). I wouldn't do it again as the living conditions weren't great, but it was a good way to make lots of international friends (my best friends over the course of those years were French, Dutch, Ecuadorian, Mexican and Argentinian). The South American backpackers were especially warm and welcoming even when I was the only one who didn't speak Spanish. There was only one bad roommate the entire time, who was too loud and enjoyed insulting people.
