I enjoyed my experience at the hostel, Jose Ignacio ( the owner) and Alfonso the other staff member were attentive and always supportive, explained me everything I needed it to know for the tasks to perform. The hours were respected as well as the days off, the place itself is very modern and well kept; you have privacy and also can engage with other guests if you wanna have a chat. The place is quite and well located, within the city center of Vitoria from where you have a bunch of bars, parks, and supermarkets nearby. I would recommend it to explore Pais Vasco.

Jose Ignacio and the team were welcoming and helpful! The housekeeping and reception work was fair and well organized with a schedule. The hostel was fairly quiet and relaxing. It was not too social as some hostels are but made for a good chance for some R&R.

In short, complete CHAOS! The first day, the staff got me locked out of my room(had to wait 3h until someone woke up and let me in).In 3 days, they gave me 4 different codes for the door because they kept messing up. The teaching was completedly inadequate; on my first shift, I knew how to use the software but nobody had told me the laptop's password, where the key to the storage room was etc. There's no autonomy, leadership, or structure whatsoever. I felt like I was in a psychiatric ward. I absolutely do not recommend this place.

Mi experiencia como voluntario en el hostel fue muy buena. Esta fue mi segunda experiencia con ellos este año y, aunque esta vez fue un período corto, disfruté mucho de mi estancia y de poder colaborar nuevamente con el hostel. Me voy con muy agradecido por la oportunidad de volver a compartir esta experiencia. ¡Siempre estoy dispuesto a regresar! Muchas gracias por todo y espero que nos volvamos a encontrar pronto.

Muy buena experiencia, José Ignacio es muy buen anfitrión, siempre estuvo a disposición cuando lo necesite y cumplió con todo lo acordado. Me sirvio mucho como aprendizaje del manejo de un hostel y de atención al cliente. Vitoria Gasteiz esta muy bien conectado y es posible conocer muchos sitios desde allí en los días libres. Sin dudas lo recomiendo como experiencia si buscas un voluntariado donde aprender recepción y atención a huéspedes en un hostel.
