Volunteering at the hostel. the hostel was a great experience. I spent nearly two months there, and the time flew by. I met people from all over the world and had a blast with the other volunteers. The work was manageable, the staff were helpful and flexible with scheduling, and free meals were provided. Volunteers also have access to a shared flat with a kitchen and living room. The biggest downside is the noise. The men's room is next to a busy street/pub, so there's noise throughout the night. With no AC, the rooms can also get uncomfortable during the warmer months, making it difficult to sleep.

Volunteering at the hostel for the past two months was a fantastic experience. The team was very nice, and the volunteers made me feel right at home from day one. The daily tasks were manageable, and left me with plenty of time to explore the city on my days off. I highly recommend this host to any traveler looking for a well-structured, welcoming environment right in the heart of the hostel!

I had a lovely experience at the hostel! The kitchen staff always looked after us and made us feel welcome. The friends I made over those two months made my stay truly unforgettable. Having our own flat, with a kitchen and living room, made it feel like home. Breakfast was included, and sometimes we even got to enjoy leftovers from dinner, which was a great bonus! Communication and the way instructions were given could sometimes be improved, but overall, I would definitely recommend the hostel to any traveller!

I only stayed for three weeks, but I honestly wish I could have stayed longer. It was a great experience and I highly recommend it. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and explain everything clearly. The location is excellent and hard to beat. You meet people from all over the world and it is easy to make connections with other volunteers. Online training prepares you before arrival, followed by a full tour when you arrive. The tasks are simple, leaving plenty of time to explore the hostel. The dedicated volunteer area is also great for relaxing and socializing after shifts.
