The hostel is a one of a kind hostel with a great atmosphere! The hostel is very small and cozy so the vibe is almost like communal living, which makes socializing with guests and other volunteers happen very naturally. Since the hostel is small, the work is pretty simple and not very demanding. I really enjoyed my time volunteering, and would definitely recommend it!!:)) (+ the city is amazing)

From the way Olga makes sure to offer each guest a glass of water to sitting down with them to map Budapest's must-do's to making me feel so loved across the world from home, Olga is the heart of the hostel. Chandler—the manager—is a strong leader, understanding, charismatic, and down-to-earth all at once. The work is not demanding, and I love that the hostel is small, so it feels as if you are staying at a friend's house. I'll always remember shared dinners with Chandler and Ronja (my co-volunteer bestie!), hours spent playing card games with guests, and hostel pub crawls :) 11/10 recommend!

The kind of place that has something for everyone, I would plan a whole trip to Budapest just to visit again! This was my last big trip before school and I'm glad I decided to go, I felt welcomed from the first chat, got to hangout with people from all over and as more days passed I understood why people move to Budapest more and more. I wouldn't change a thing about my trip except maybe I'd have another kebab.

The hostel is a small family style hostel in the heart of Budapest! I immediately felt welcomed into the hostel! Work hours were explained prior to arriving and they are well respected. The tasks are basic hostel work; reception, housekeeping etc. Lots of time to explore the city. Fantastic owners, lots of interaction with other volunteers and guests. I very much enjoyed my time! Thank you!

I had an amazing time at the the hostel! It is very small & cozy & therefore a very social hostel where it is easy to meet other travelers. The work is exactly as described & very manageable. Olga, Chandler & Gabor are great hosts & make you feel at home. You have lots of free time to explore the city & its nightlife which is super fun. Definitely recommend this experience!! :)
