I had a really good experience volunteering at the hostel! From day one, the whole team made me feel very welcome, and Andrea was always kind and approachable. The volunteer experience is very dynamic and varied, so it's a great fit if you're flexible, proactive, and happy to help wherever needed. I really appreciated the flexibility with my schedule, since I work remotely. the hostel itself is beautiful, a lovely place to call home for a while. I loved meeting travelers and locals and building genuine connections. I'm very grateful for the people I met and the memories I'm taking with me 🤍

My experience as a volunteer at Hostel the hostel was amazing. From day one, I felt welcomed, like being at home. The atmosphere is very friendly, and there's always a good vibe with both guests and the team. One thing I really appreciate is the flexibility with schedules, which allows you to enjoy the city, meet new people, and also have time for yourself. You also build genuine connections and friendships that truly stay with you. I definitely recommend this place for volunteering—not just for the exchange, but for the whole human experience you gain.
