The Experience

Hi! We are seeking a friendly, hard-working person with bar experience to run our bar for 7PM to 10PM happy hours Wed-Sun on our rooftop terrace. Mon&Tues will be off days. Tasks will require preparation of juices/mixers, bar set up and break down, making cocktails and serving beers, along with guest interaction. In exchange for this, we will provide your accomodation and amenities and a basic breakfast. We prefer at least a 6 week stay.

It has been such a wonderful experience, everything is as advertised in the post. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm smiles and friendly faces. The staff and other volunteers were incredibly welcoming, and I immediately felt at home. The job itself is very basic and if you like to be independent and you're organized you will love it as you manage the whole bar yourself, make sure there's enough drink, make the special cocktail everyday. The hostel itself is located in a wonderful location, very central and with stunning sunset and fireworks every night from the rooftop.

I had a great time at the hostel. Adela, the owner, and Nacho, the manager were very kind, fun, and respectful bosses, and the staff truly felt like family! The tasks and hours were exactly as agreed upon, and there were many chances to explore the city and surrounding areas. The staff rooms were not the most comfortable, but they were acceptable for the time spent there, and the rest of the facilities were good. I felt very comfortable at the hostel and would definitely recommend this experience to other travelers.

My time at the hostel was amazing, and I can not imagine getting a better experience somewhere else. Everyone who worked there was lovely, the hours were exactly as agreed upon and I could get answers to any questions I had. The location of the hostel is great, right in the middle of the city with easy access to buses if you wish to venture further. I hope I'll be able to meet everyone I got to know there again some day!

Great atmosphere here, and while there is a high standard of work expected of you, the hours are very manageable and there is always help and support available. Would definitely recommend!
