I absolutely recommend this place! The staff is super nice, welcoming and happy to meet people. The work is easy and usually finished between 3-4 hours. Although there is not too much to do in the area, you won't get bored because you have the hostel san always in sight! Can't think of anything better than that. My personal recommendation is walking around the hostel five lakes. They're all super pretty! My only downside here would be that there are no curtains on the beds so you don't have much privacy but you'll get used to it quickly!

I felt very welcome from the first moment; all the staff are very kind and sociable. They really care about whether you're comfortable or if you need help. I enjoyed every moment at the hostel.

IWhat i really liked here : - The staff is super nice and friendly, we really share some great times together. - No surprises, everything is as listed in the description. - the area is really pretty and easy to explore. But something that i felt wasn't really said by others : the accommodation/workload deal is a bit weak. I was in a 9 persons (only guests) mix bedroom (mostly men) without curtains so no privacy and different schedules to wake up or go to sleep, it was difficult. Another thing is the shift is from 11am to 3pm, which doesn't leave a lot of time around to go out.

We had an amazing month in the hostel. We were welcomed nicely by our co-workers, and the vibe at the hostel is very laidback, social, and easy. We met many nice people during our stay. The nearby nature with the hostel and the lakes is absolutely stunning. Work hours were 3-4 hours a day, work consisted of cleaning public toilets and bathrooms, and after that little tasks. Sometimes we had a nice tea party after. We slept on the shared dorms with guests. On addition they have very good kitchen utilities offering all the basics, and we also got a little food support weekly.

We had an amazing month at the hostel Mount the hostel exploring the beautiful area and meeting other travelers. The hostel has cozy common areas and nice big kitchen. The other volunteers and staff were lovely. You'll work max 4 hours a day. The work is mostly cleaning toilets and showers and the common areas. They are quite precise about the cleaning but everything is taught well. The beds are comfy and you'll be sharing a mixed dorm with other guests. We hope to visit this place again❤️
