My experience at the hostel was amazing! The team and manager are super welcoming, and the support is great. The facilities are really good, and everyone is always ready to help if you need anything. The shifts are well organized, and the tasks are easy to do. Overall, I have nothing but great memories from my time there, and I'm really grateful for the experience! ❤️

My experience at the hostel Trips was really great! The workload varies a bit, sometimes its really light sometimes it's a bit heavy, but the hours are always respected and the staff helps when things are a little much. The morning shift is also kind of late (11AM-3PM) but especially in the spring/summer you still have a lot of the time to enjoy your day. Purmerend is a nice the hostel and you can get to Amsterdam pretty easily by bus! The staff and other volunteers were really nice and welcoming, and it really made the experience a hundred times better!! I absolutely recommend it ❤️

The month I spent in Purmerend was one of the best of my life. The town is small and beautiful, and the access to Amsterdam is easy. The hostel is amazing, and especially the people!! The work isn't hard and is well-organized. The only difficulty is the kitchen, but it's manageable. I'm very grateful and happy for the experience!!!

I really enjoyed my time at the hostel! I made life long friends here :) The work hours were fair and the managers Patrick and Salvatore made sure all the work was distributed evenly. They communicated everything and were also flexible when needed. I also want to mention for other female travellers - I appreciated that if a guest at the hostel was making me feel uncomfortable, I could always tell management and swift action would always be taken. While it was rare when it did happen, I felt very supported by the staff and never felt unsafe. But most of all, I had lots of fun!

I volunteered at this hostel for one month and had a really great experience. The host, staff, and travelers were all very kind, which made it easy to feel comfortable quickly.

My tasks were mostly bed cleaning, deep cleaning for beds, organizing and the schedule was reasonable with plenty of free time. It was a great opportunity to meet people from different countries and create wonderful memories. I would definitely recommend this place to future volunteers.

Thank you for such a memorable stay!🫶🏻
