Giovanni's Room, named after James Baldwin's 1956 novel, cards its guests before giving them a key. Nobody over 42 is allowed in this high-energy hostel that offers bunk beds, sleeper chairs and mezzanine sleeping accessible only by ladder. Special amenities for the hostel's party-people clientele include events like weekend orgy nights, a cinema room, board games, drinking games, pub crawls and bathrooms with hot tubs. The street address of the three-story townhouse is not given out until reservations are made.
