Can you stay in a hostel for 3 months?

6. Don't stay too long. There's no limit as to how long you can live in a hostel, but don't forget the reason why you travelled to a new part of this wonderful planet…to explore! Don't allow yourself to get too comfy by watching Netflix in bed every night and frequenting the same places.

I've never been asked to confirm my age when checking into a hostel.
