This was my first experience on the platform, and it was amazing! Neal and Marie are incredibly welcoming, and they made me feel at home throughout my stay.

The hotel is in a quiet village, the work is simple, and they always explain clearly what needs to be done.

When the work was done or on my days off, I often went to play football around here and visited some places by bike, bus, or train. I also stayed at the hotel, having good times, nice chats, and playing some guitar and piano.

Thank you very much! I leave with great memories and a lot of gratitude. It was an amazing experience!

Neal and Marie are very kind and make you feel very comfortable. Lending me a bike to visit the train station, zoo etc was amazing and made day trips so much easier. The hotel is in an extremely quiet village and the nearest restaurants are in the town which is about a half hour walk away, so make sure to bring snacks! With my one day off a week, I had a fabulous time exploring the region. The work consists of housekeeping and cleaning, starting at about 9/10 am and I was always finished before 2pm so had the option to go out in the afternoon, if it wasn't too hot! Thanks for the experience!

I stayed here for around three weeks and had a really nice experience. The hosts were welcoming and always checked if I was okay. The work was not difficult, and I was able to practise my English during my stay.

The cat is also very friendly and cute! The house is a bit far from the city, so it can take some time to get around, but if you enjoy a quiet environment, I would recommend this place.

My experience here was better than I could've imagined. Since the beginning I received clear information about how to get here and which trains were best. Mairie and Neal were super kind, always making sure I was doing fine and giving clear instructions on the tasks (that were super simple, however quite time consuming) which for me wasn't a problem. I had my own cozy room and bathroom too, which allowed me to have my private space. On my rest day, I had the chance to visit a nearby village by train and its famous Chateau by the river. It was amazing!

I had an amazing stay with Neal and Mary in France. As a first-time Worldpacker, they made me feel so welcome—it truly felt like a home away from home. Tasks were simple, communication was great, and Neal's pizzas were unreal! I'll definitely stay in touch and highly recommend them.
