We ask for the same things you would already expect. Live ins are asked to look after the hostel. Front desk duties are to check guests in with a smile and interact with them. Cleaning duties involve looking after the place in general and on some shifts getting down and cleaning up. Housekeeping shift also is there to help with beds and making sure hostel is not lacking anything. Don't worry, we don't work any one to hard!

The hostel was very organized and in a great location. Also the owners would always listen us and try to help. The experience was very nice, and I could learn a lot and meet a lot people. I recommend this place if you're looking for something chill and quiet; But if you're looking for a party hostel, this is not the place.

In the hostel everyone is super nice. As soon as I got there I felt welcome. I was shown where to find everything. As a traveler I worked there as a housekeeper. The work is great, we had to work 4 hours on 4 days.

Working at the hostel was enjoyable and gave me enough free time to explore the city. Location was perfect for walkability and access to public transportation. I started off with housekeeping, but filled in the role of reception when a staff member was out for a month. It was an adjustment learning the system, but nothing too challenging to learn and overall my duties were easy to complete. Unfortunately, I had to leave early due to a family emergency and Tom and Paul were very understanding of my situation. Good place to volunteer and a great way to experience Washington D.C. :)

This was my first traveling experience with Worldpacker and I loved it. The work was super easy and there was a lot of time to explore DC. I would definitely recommend this to anyone thinking about it!
