Remember when booking hostels meant walking around town asking?

Back in 2015 I traveled through Portugal and just showed up at hostels in person, usually got a bed for like 15 euros a night. Last month I tried the same thing in Lisbon and every place wanted 45 euros online only, no walk-in deals at all. How do you guys find cheap last minute rooms without booking apps taking a cut?

Those online only hostels, are they actually full or just cutting out walk-ins?

Wait, they're actively turning away people with cash in hand at the door?
