The Experience

The job is way simple: it is mainly keeping the guests satisfied by socializing and generally be around and offer help and knowledge to our Guests. It mainly means to do our Hostel Events, like doing the BBQ on Monday, cook the Vegetarian Free Dinner on Sunday and Wednesday. Also our Volunteers help us with the breakfast. In low season during wintertime we need some simple help with the nightshifts.

The hostel, brought me a joy and love of my first volunteer experience, where I learn so much with the receptionists, Julian was such an amazing woman that explains everything with passion, about the city, the culture and the hostel. The job itself was so nice and calm. They didn't ask us to much more than we could handle. Love the free dinners nights because it was the best moment to meet the guest, learn more about everything.I'm leaving the volunteer with a smile on my face and maybe some tears too. I hope to come back to volunteer again.

I had the most amazing time at the hostel, even ended up extending my stay :) work is simple and fair,i really liked that we could organize different activities for guests and change it up each week. even when I was the only volunteer for a few days the work was not overwhelming at all. All the receptionists are just the most amazing people. Dresden is also a beautiful city with lots to discover !

If you're solo traveling or working in a hostel for the first time this is truly the place to welcome you into that experience and help you get comfortable. I could not recommend the hostel more if I tried, the staff are all amazing (shoutout to Juli, Nova and Laurent for the conversations!), the work is social and easy and the hostel itself is beautifully designed. Plus I got to meet some of the best people whilst volunteering at the hostel. Really wished I had the time to volunteer for longer but I know I'll visit the hostel and it's staff again soon!

It was without a doubt my best volunteering experience so far. Dresden is a city with many charms and the hostel has an alternative and fun vibe. The tasks are simple and fun, I felt very happy to collaborate. Martin and Juliane are special people and the entire the hostel team made me feel welcome and at home, it was very difficult to say goodbye (I hope it's a see you later) I couldn't have chosen a better place to spend Christmas and New Year. Thank you very much for everything, I highly recommend the hostel.

I had an incredible experience at this hostel! I highly recommend it and it is a great place especially if it is your first time volunteering. All of the staff are really lovely and they make you feel very at home. Thank you to all the incredible staff, I am so grateful for you all! The tasks are very simple and straight forward, so there is lots of time to explore Dresden and its surrounds. I feel very lucky to have volunteered at the hostel and I have made life-long friends and memories! Thank you all so much!!!

Dom is just a very active, smart and wonderful soul! Although she is still very young, she was very responsible, never late, communication was amazing and working together with her was easy and fun! We were impressed, she is a good team player! She is also good in interaction with guests and other strangers and we were really happy to have her here at our little hostel!
