"Youth" Hostels

When in town I stay in hotels but tend to use the room only for the 4 s' (sleep, shit, shower and shave). Too much to do in Amsterdam to be sitting in my room watching TV or reading a book. A hostel would do me fine, especially when going solo or without chicks. At 56 I no longer fall in the youth catagory. Are there age limits in all the hostels?

The only age limits in hostels, that I know of, are in Germany. Specifically Bavaria, and that's only for the 'official' hostels.
