This was my first volunteer experience and it could not have been better. The facilities are nice, the staff are awesome people and welcomed with open arms, he work is light and enjoyable and the hours are more than fair. On top of all that, the hostel is in a cool location and Athens is a city which is impossible to be bored in. I had a great time and recommend the hostel to anyone. Will be hard for future volunteer experiences to compare!

Volunteering at the hostel was such a cool experience. The work hours were as agreed upon, and scheduling was flexible. The staff and other volunteers, especially Thanasis, Tasos, Vasilis, Panos, Christina, Candela, and Johanna, made the experience truly memorable. The hostel is exceptionally clean, and the beds and other facilities are excellent. Lastly, the hostel's location in Exarcheia is great for exploring and is close to other neighborhoods. I highly recommend this place and would definitely return, either as a guest or a volunteer. Thank you again for everything!

The hostel is a beautiful hostel with top-notch, fully equipped facilities. Everything works perfectly and feels truly premium. The care and dedication of the team are reflected not only in the hostel itself but also in the atmosphere they createβ€”calm, welcoming, and respectful. I highly recommend it and I'm very grateful to everyone for making my stay such a lovely experience!

**My first volunteer experience** I spent 6 weeks at the hostel as a nightshift receptionist from 12am-8am at least 3 days out of the week. The staff was extremely welcoming and I feel as if I made genuine friends. As a receptionist you'll be left alone and more often than not you'll have to deal with random middle of the night questions or the occasional walk in. It's important to remember that this is what you signed up for ! This was a great experience for my first time volunteering and I would recommend it to anyone looking to have a home base the hostel Greece.
