This was my first worldpacker experience and I had such an amazing time! The working hours were respected and you get plenty of time off to explore Catania and visit nearby towns! You are expected to work and clean to a high level, which was expected, and all the tasks were explained well in detail! Reza is very hardworking and Salvo is one of the kindest people I've met which helped to make the hostel feel like a home away from home! There are also loads of great and cheap restaurants and bars really close which was great. I miss the hostel and all the wonderful people I met there already!

My experience in UrbanPop Hostel was amazing! I spent more than 2 months here and I loved every moment of it. The place is very clean, it's a big hostel and full of travelers. But at the same time, you can have privacy and silence, which for me was wonderful. I met amazing people and have good memories of all the time I spent here. Reza and Salvo are wonderful hosts and I would definitely come back here. The work is well explained and easy. I will miss you guys and of course the cakes hahaha! Thanks for everything!

I had a very positive experience at the hostel. This was my first time volunteering on worldpackers and I wouldn't have wanted it to be anywhere else. Expectations about the job were set clearly, as you recieve a check list to work with, and the hours were respected. I had lots of fun working at the hostel and exploring the island on my days off. Salvo and Reza have been wonderful hosts and made me feel welcome at all times. Over all I had a awesome time at the hostel and definitely want to come back!

I had the best time volunteering for the hostel, the expectations were set out clearly and the hours were respected, and there was nothing incredibly challenging. It's in a really central location too, and the days off allow for you to explore heaps of Sicily. Salvo and Reza were the best hosts and so kind to me during my stay, I was truly sad to leave, but I will definitely be back! I really couldn't recommend it enough ❤️

My stay at the hostel was a very valuable experience. I had the chance to meet people from all over the world, explore the whole of Sicily and experience the local culture. The hostel itself is located very close to the city center. If you're lucky, Salvo will take you to Mount Etna, which was one of my favorite experiences during the entire stay. Don't pack too many clothes; half of my backpack was clothes bought at the flea market for 1€. Salvo (the owner) is the sweetest person in the world; throughout my stay, I felt taken care of and safe. Thank you, Salvo and Reza for a great time!

This was my first time traveling by myself, and I'm so grateful to have had this experience. Both the volunteers and Reza and Salvo were always there to help and made me feel at home. I had a lot of fun working and living in the hostel and learned a lot about different cultures. Catania is also a perfect place to explore the island on your free days. Most shifts are very relaxed and the communication was always very good. Thankyou for everything. 🩷

My time at UrbanPop has been wonderful, truly one of the best months in my life. Salvo made me feel at home directly and is so generous and Reza is so funny. I am so thankful for them both and all the girls at the hostel! The work is fair and everything is communicated very clearly. This was my first volunteer experience and it was perfect. My only tip and I can't stress this enough, do not bring too much clothes because the flea market is amazing. If you have any questions feel free to write me!

This was an amazing hostel experience. From the moment I arrived Salvo made fell at home and I was instantly welcomed by the other volunteers. The work gets repetitive but honestly it didn't bother me at all. The energy of the hostel is amazing and salvo and Reza are two of the funniest and most enjoyable people to be around. Come ready to work and you'll do just fine.

I stayed at UrbanPop for one month and I had an amazing time here! The work was fair and the hours were respected. You get two days of per week which I used to see more of Sicily and If you're lucky Salvo will take you with some guests up to mt. Etna! The vibe among all the volunteers and Reza & Salvo was great and fun, I felt very comfortable :)) If you're looking for a hostel experience with a chance to get to know a city like Catania, I would highly recommend this place!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼

My experience at the hostel was great. The 30h a week were respected and all the tasks were explained. Salvo was always extremely joyful and helpful and with Reza they were very patient and made the whole experience as stress free as possible. Advice for new volunteers : don't bring too many clothes, there is a flea market in the city open almost every day and you can find clothes at 50c, 1 or 2 euros.
