The Golden Stork
We are a small hostel family with the perfect location in the city center of The Hague at a typical Dutch canal. We also have unlimited free coffee, and a cozy dorm to sleep in.
Besides all that we have an awesome staff (who will be your new best friends) and they also organize all kinds of activities in or around the hostel. Also really good for a nice conversation (with an optional beer)!
We are two brothers who started our first hostel here in The Hague. We are very involved with the day to day business. We like to help our volunteers out discovering the city and share our knowledge and skills about our coffee culture.

About the experience in: The Hague, Netherlands
Brazil
My experience was good, sometimes I missed some explanations on how to do the events but I managed to do it my way, it's bad that the volunteers don't have a room to themselves, The food is good but sometimes I felt like I was wrong to ask about it as it was never ready at the agreed time. It was a good experience, some points to improve but I recommend it.

I had the nicest month volunteering here, everyone working was so friendly and welcoming and the breakfast was very delicious😋Getting to help with events with the other volunteers was also very rewarding and a fun way to spend an evening in the hostel, getting to socialise and talk to people travelling from everywhere. Thanks for everything!! Will definitely stop by again whenever I’m in the Netherlands :)

It's been a great experience for me, The Hague is a great city, and this hostel hosts events everyday, which is a great way to meetnew people. The workload is not that much, except on sundays or holidays you are done pretty quickly. It is true that there is not much space in the rooms for a long term stay though, but thats a minor inconvenience. The bad reviews about extra work seem unfair to me, doing 1 or 2 beds or help to gather the terrace tables while you're doing nothing it's not that much. It may be a hussle sometimes but like I said before the workload is light and you get done early.
