This was an amazing volunteer experience! The hostel is nice and small so the work such as cleaning is very manageable. The working hours are great because you can go to the city either before or after your shifts. And the owner is super nice, friendly, and socializes with everyone. Reception area is outside on the terrace which is the best place to sit, relax, and wait for the guests. the hostel is very beautiful when in bloom and also a nice place to sit in the sun. The actual location of the hostel is far from the city center, but the bus/metro station is very close.

Such a unique hostel with a beautiful the hostel! In a very safe residential area so good for solo travellers. Bus stop very close by so easy to get into the city. Balázs is a great, friendly host that made me feel very welcome and supported. We pitched in to help him make a lovely Hungarian dish for my last day in the hostel. The hostel has a very "family" feel to it which is very comforting. Just an overall great experience that I would completely recommend!

I enjoyed the beautiful the hostel and getting to know many different international guests. The working hours are respected, the tasks are manageable and Balázs is a welcoming host… However, in the first week he „jokingly“ grabbed my ass. I left early after this incident as I didn't feel comfortable living and working there anymore.

Some important details you missed: We were outside of the work environment, went on a hiking trip together, talking the whole day, and as you admit as well: jokingly, as part of one of our discussion without any sexual or violent intention while we talked about muscles related running, I pointed on your ass and 'touched' it (pointed describes better) with the top of my fingers for 0.5 second. I shouldn't have done it, said sorry, but how you make it sound to other people is also not too fair.

I recommend volunteering here. Since the hostel isn't too big, it's easy to connect with both travelers and fellow volunteers. Balázs is very warm, friendly, and always joking around, which adds to the welcoming vibe. the hostel is a nice place to relax, and I often got to enjoy fresh figs straight from the tree～

Balazs is a really good person, very calm, sociable and above all he makes himself available for everything. He gives 'trust' to the volunteers and it is something that you don't often find from hosts. As for the work it was really fantastic, but if you are a proactive person you always find something to do even on 'dead' days. The other volunteers were super kind, very helpful. I recommend this place especially for the flexibility of hours and working days, you have practically all the time to work (if you work remotely) or visit the city and rest!

The hostel is a great base to explore Budapest and the surrounding area. Balasz has great recommendations for what to see and do and you meet a good mix of international travellers and Hungarian locals. Staying in the hostel can be an experience since you sleep where you work but overall I would recommend the experience.

I couldn't ask for a better experience! The hostel is cozy, surrounded by nature in a residential area within easy acess to city center by metro/bus. The work is fair and gives you enough free time to explore budapest! I would say its important to be really motivated and keep a good communication with the team then the work will be chill! Balazs is a lovely host, a good listener and is always open to share a lot. The atmosphere is more like a big house, which makes it more humanizing and easier to create connections with guests. I can say that I left with new friends and great memories :)

I really enjoyed my experience here! The hostel is not that big and the tasks are easy to do. Hours were always respected and the schedule was given weekly. Balazs is not always at the hostel, so you have to be proactive as well. He's a really good host, knows a lot about Hungary and he was always willing to explain and teach us about his country and culture. He also took us on a day trip outside Budapest and cooked Hungarian food, which was great! I had the chance to meet people from all over and make new friends! I loved it! Definitely recommend!
