My experience was very negative. What should have been a cultural exchange became labor exploitation. The host treated volunteers like employees, demanding more hours than agreed, including heavy tasks and frequent requests outside scheduled time. I worked exhausting shifts, including 12 hours straight, and was promised payment for extra hours that was never made. In the end, the host tried to justify not paying me by using my days off as an excuse. It was disrespectful, unfair, and exploitative. I do not recommend this place. “Questions. Direct!”

Ana,
We’re sorry to hear your experience was not positive, as it seemed you were enjoying your time in Newport and connecting with locals.
On St Patrick’s Day, we asked you to work extra hours as it’s our busiest day, with time off in return. The photos were your own initiative. We stayed flexible with your schedule, and you were always free to refuse changes.
We regret the misunderstandings, likely due to communication, and apologise. We wish you all the best.

Gautier (recently joined the host and will remain on premise 'til October-great addition to the host) and workers/cooks/volunteers made my experience memorable. This is the best part. Consider reading all negative comments because true. Gautier might make communication and organization better. I was a volunteer willing to learn but not a worker. I complained about amenities (lack of heat and black mold). I'll stop. I did leave early. Sorry!

This experience was not ideal whatsoever. The staff at the pub are great, but the host was not. Due to terrible communication on the host’s end, I was met with confusion upon arrival. I was then shown my room for which I never received a key, so my belongings were left unlocked for 3 weeks. Additionally I was not given a key to enter the building in which I was staying, resulting in me being locked out at 1am. There was also no heat on in my room, despite near freezing temperatures. I left a week early.

The communication was very bad. I didn't really feel listened to when raising issues, I said multiple times how my heat was not on and was just told repeatedly that the heat was in fact on. The schedule is rarely made out in advance and sometimes the next day would be blank and so you wouldn't know when to work. There is also no clear instructions and everything is done differently by everyone leading to a lot of confusion and disorganization. The entire staff is very nice and a lot of the locals are very friendly but the lack of organization is just very frustrating.

The experience at Walsh Bridge Inn was very good, I could practice my English with native speakers and volunteers from other countries. The people were kind and respectful and all issues were resolved by the host properly . I would like to thank everyone for their help and friendship, especially Chef Ann, Annete, Fran, Aileen and Francis!
