Be creative
Use repetition
Be Informal
Use varied punctuation

Be objective and factual
Don't use first person
Discourse markers
State points-don't describe too much
NEWSPAPER REPORT-
Creative and catchy title
Provide a little bit of backdrop for the place ( a hostel which is known to provide cheap accommodation for backpackers)
Dialogues
Factual and Formal
