The hostel was great to volunteer at. The task aren't hard and you have a lot of time to do your own thing. The staff is really friendly and there are always other volunteers and guests to hang out with.

I had such a great time in the hostel! The working hours are respected and the volunteers alongside with the staff are so nice and friendly that instead of staying one month I stayed for two. The location is awesome, in the best neighborhood of Istanbul on the Asian side. And they have a cute dog called Soda (I miss Soda). I really recommend this experience :)
