I am sure you see the name Frank come up a lot when you read the reviews that's because… HE is the man! He makes you feel welcomed and explains the job very well. 3 days on and 3 days off. Reception and housekeeping after that you can explore the beautiful city of Tirane. The location is perfect right in the center of Tirana, making it easy to explore during the day and go out at night. The hostel itself is clean, comfortable, and has a really friendly atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to volunteer and experience Tirana!

I'm glad that I met many kind and friendly people here and shared many good memories together. Everything is quite flexible and can be easily adjusted. Since now it's low season so the work is very chill and u certainly get enough of time to explore the city even Albania. Volunteers get the team dorm together it makes me feel like a family lol

The hostel was my home, and the team was my family. The place is very well maintained by everyone, the tasks are clear, easy, and straightforward, and the working hours are perfect — especially having 3 days off per week, which is simply incredible. And Franc… wow. Franc is such an intelligent, caring, friendly, and funny person. Always bringing good conversations, good ideas, and lots of laughs. Everything felt right in that place. I can now say that I have a home in Tirana, and I will definitely come back one day. Great experience!

Franc and the entire volunteer team are incredibly friendly, making my stay here happy and comfortable. The hostel is perfectly located near the city center, and the work is exactly as described—easy and manageable. My favorite part was soaking up the sun on the rooftop.
As my first Workaway experience, it couldn't have been better. We shared food and looked out for one another like a true team. Celebrating the 2025 New Year's Eve fireworks at the square was a highlight; it was my first time spending New Year abroad, and I'm so glad I chose this place. Thank you all for the amazing support!

My experience at the hostel was amazing and exceeded all expectations. The tasks are simple, well explained, and never too heavy, everything flows naturally, the schedule is fair, organized, and leaves you with plenty of time to live the experience properly. But the real highlight is Franc. An amazing, kind, and genuinely funny person who makes you feel at home from day one. It feels like being part of a big group of friends. I created unforgettable memories, and truly enjoyed every moment. Very grateful, If you're thinking about coming here, my advice is: just go for it 🙏

I had a great experience at the hostel with Franc and the other volunteers. From day one, I was welcomed by with good conversation, good wine, and good vibes until the early hours of the morning. Everyone working had such a unique background that brought them to Tirana for one reason or another, and it was great to get to know everyone. My responsibilities were clearly outlined and I never felt like I was alone in what to do. And Franc and the other volunteers answered all of my questions and helped me to adjust and learn the ropes every step of the way. Would absolutely come back!!!

Loved this place! The hostel is not that big, so the work is always super chill, the schedule is one of the best that I have ever done volunteering and Franc is a stress-free guy, so if you're looking for a peaceful experience, you just found it! Tirana is a great city and from there you can visit so many places, for sure I'm coming back!

A great hostel and volunteer experience. Franc is a respectful and sound guy all round. Always there when you need him. The work was fair and the days off in a row allow you to explore more of albania.
Great way to meet other travellers and the facilities are good so sitting around the hostel on chill days was nice also.

I had such a wonderful time here! The owner is incredibly flexible and gives plenty of time off, which I really appreciated. Tirana is perfectly located in the center of the country, with buses going everywhere, so it's a great base for exploring different parts of Albania. The hostel is very clean and spacious, with new beds and plenty of bathrooms. The work itself is straightforward, nothing too demanding, and the atmosphere is really relaxed. I'd definitely recommend this place to other volunteers!
