The three months I've spent in the hostel might have been the best of my life. I'v met so many great people and immediately felt home and welcomed. More than that, I found a family in this hostel. Tasks are easy and well explained. The working hours are respected and flexible, allowing you to explore Belfast and the area, or to organize a wee trip in the south. Cintia, the manager, was a former volunteer, always willing to help and to make of your stay the best. Finally, the social life of the hostel was exceptional . What a stunning experience, I would have stay much longer if I could⭐️

I would like to say that it is the best hostel of all, the atmosphere, the people, the place, the interaction that happens there is incredible. The staff: Cintia, Anna, Jacqueline, Henrique, Jesse, Sara, Elza, Luis and Andy were the best traveling companions. I recommend a long stay, as one month was not enough to experience everything that Belfast has to offer. Thank you Mark for everything! I already miss it and want to go back soon! Kisses in your hearts.
