I've never been overseas, so my thinking tends to be somewhat
constrained to what would be found in North America. Now that you
mention it, I do realise that ISDN is a lot more popular overseas then

I wouldn't expect hostels to provide much at all in the way of

An ISDN S/T bus can support up to eight devices connected in
parallel, so yes this would be a valid thing to do with an ISDN

Endpoint Identifiers). Of course, ISDN is not compatible with Ethernet
in any way, so plugging an Ethernet device into an ISDN jack wouldn't
work.
