Locomotive Light Hostel
Locomotive Light Hostel is a quiet, small hostel in the center of Budapest, very close to Keleti Pu. international train station. To care about four rooms and 10 - 14 guests is not a hard work. If you like to meet people, sometimes to go out with the guests but you have to study or you have hobby and some time needs for it, this place is the optimal place for you.
We have a small team, we are helpful and flexibile, we treat normal people on normal way, sometimes better. You can manage your job easy, but sometimes we leave you alone, this means some kind of responsibility. Al of the possible questions or problems we try to solve peacefully and flexible. We wait the same from you.

About the experience in: Budapest, Hungary
Japan
I really enjoyed volunteering at the hostel! Although I only met the owner, Tamas, a few times, he was very kind and welcoming. The working hours were respected, the tasks were easy to manage, and I really appreciated the freedom to organize the cleaning in my own way. On my days off, I had plenty of time to explore Budapest and Pest County. I also met lovely people, including other travelers, and enjoyed playing games and hanging out together. Thanks so much for the opportunity! I would definitely love to come back in the future!

I actually ended up doing around 1 month at the host's other listing on the Balaton, then 2 months at the hostel in Budapest. It's hard to complain about either opportunity with the amount of work at each. At the Balaton, it was essentially just watering the plants daily and occasionally checking in guests. At the hostel, it's usually less than 2h/day of cleaning.
The owner is great, and I'm glad I did the less common opportunity first to be able to connect with him. The receptionist at the hostel isn't too warm, but not a bad guy. Get the month long Budapest or Hungary transit pass & explore

My experience at the hostel was really great. I spent 3 weeks,and from the first day the tasks were clear and precise. Nothing more is asked for than what is written. The homework is quiete easy,anyone can do it. In addition,you have a lot of free time. I think it's one of the most advantageous things compared to many others projects. The hostel is like a very calm and quiet house,you will love taking care of it and dedicating time to it. In addition,the owner is always available and ready to help you in case of need. What better to ask for? It was my first experience and it was beautiful

I really enjoyed the experience. The workload and tasks were very manageable, which gave me plenty of time to enjoy the city. The hostel is quite simple, but it has everything necessary. I liked it and hope to return someday.

I sped the last month on the hostel. Is a nice place to be, close to bus and trams lines, you can explore the beautiful budapest on your days free or even during the week days, since the job only requires 2 hours of work a day.
The work is pretty basic, cleanning, puting trash away and keep the kitchen organizazed.
The place is quite small, so if you are a organized person and know how to do cleaning, you're going to be able to do it fast and good.
The hostes lets you free, provides the necessary materiais. I rigthly recomend the hostel as a place to be a volunteer.
