I had a nice time at the KIH :) Alex, the current manager, and all the other staff members were really kind and welcoming. I stayed there for about 6 weeks in February and March which is a pretty slow season. The tasks were absolutely manageable and there was always someone around in case I had questions :) Kelowna has to offer some really beautiful nature and the next ski mountain is not far! It would probably be even better with a car to be more flexible and get around a bit more.

I had a good time at the hostel. The working hours were well divided, with a mixture of reception and cleaning duties.
The location is good, 25 minute walk into town and only 5 mins to a nice beach/park. The hostel is ideal for those who like to socialise and have fun with international people. It also offers enough space and time for yourself or for a second job in the city. One small downer was the high number of long-term guests, as I would have liked to meet more different people. Nevertheless, I can recommend the job at the hostel!

I had a great time during my stay! The work was straightforward, and everyone was very welcoming and friendly. However, I did encounter some communication problems towards the end of my stay. I was too sick to complete a shift, and I was stunned by the negative reaction to my situation, despite offering a more than exceptional solution. Overall, it was a positive experience, and I would recommend it.

The people in the hostel were very nice, I had so much with them! There are a lot of freetime opportunities: TV, playstation, guitars, piano, many games... The work hours were perfect for having a lot of free time or time to work in another job. The housekeeping duties didn't felt like "hard work", it was more like cleaning my own home, what I would do anyway. A negative, but important thing I need to say: the sanitary facilities were so old, that the water of the sink in the laundry room and the water in the toilets was floating over several times a month. Needs to be fixed soon!

I didn't have this experience.
The host accepted the application but doesn't have any dates for me.
I've tried to talk to worldpackers support but I didn't received any answer.
