Andy was super easy going and really kind. The people at the hostel really made the experience incredibly fun. The chores we had to do was pretty simple (do laundry/fold, wash dishes, throw out trash). Then you'd have the rest of the day to yourself. The people at the hostel really made my experience superb. They were all so kind and willing to show you around places (major shout out to Ema!) Although some would say that the living situation is “cramped”, I didn't mind it. Hilcrest is such a good place to be located in. You're pretty much close to everything. 10 minutes would be the typical

This was my first World Packers experience and I loved everything about it. I got the chance to know a lot of traveleres who were at the hostel and feel at home. The vibe there was super fun and chill, and it was very easy to engage with others and go out to explore the city. The neighbourhood is in a great location, and the working was very easy to do (helping w/ basic chores). I had to move from where I was sleeping a few times, so if you're an uptight person and/or real needy of your own room, this might not be the best option for you. Nevertheless, for me it was perfect. Thank you Andy!
