The three weeks I spent at the hostel flew by so quickly, and I would definitely recommend going there if you're even considering it for a second. The area is amazing, with all the different hiking trails, lots of deer and sheep, and beautiful landscapes. The staff is incredibly kind, helpful, organized, and down-to-earth. The group of volunteers is always changing, which also means that the group dynamic is constantly changing. I always felt welcomed by everyone, and I already miss the experience and all the wonderful people I met there. I would definitely volunteer there again!

The hostel is an amazing place! Here, you can make new friends, stay surrounded by nature, and improve your English. The staff is kind and friendly, and you only have to work three hours a day. Highly recommended to everyone!

The one month I've spent in the hostel went by so fast. I really enjoyed the atmosphere in the hostel, everyone was so warm and welcoming. The nature around the hostel is so breathtaking that I sometimes spent the whole day outside hiking. There are also many beautiful villages nearby that you can visit by bus. One of the best things was the great sense of community among the volunteers. We spent so much time together talking, playing games, hiking or going on little day trips. I also enjoyed the work as everyone works together and supports each other and I learned a lot about housekeeping.

My experience at the hostel was amazing. It's a comfortable and cozy place that made me feel welcome from the first moment. All the staff members are kind and manage to organize and communicate the work in a great and efficient way. The natural surroundings are great for hiking and enjoying some quiet time, while at the hostel, the international group of volunteers is always ready to connect and plan fun activities together! I definitely recommend this experience :) already miss the place!
