Tasks were very reasonable within the given hours, and nothing was too daunting, at least in the off-season when I was there. Staff was super reasonable if I needed a schedule change and in general very welcoming. The volunteers and workers would go out together either for drinks in the city or for hikes quite often, it's a great vibe. If you want to practice your French the earnest will be on you as all of the staff speak English & Spanish fluently, and volunteers tend to be native speakers of one of these languages.

My stay at the hostel in Bayonne was my first volunteering experience, and I have to say that I absolutely enjoyed it. The whole hostel team and all the other volunteers were so friendly and welcoming, and we shared so many wonderful moments together. The work and working hours are well organised too, and you have plenty of time to enjoy your free time and explore the area. My six-week stay flew by. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience :)

I spent one month at Hostel20 and it was a great experience overall! Staff were super friendly and welcoming. Staying with the three other volunteers creates a nice social atmosphere too. Work was fair, mostly cleaning tasks, but the hours are well respected so there's always lots free time to explore the surrounding areas. Would 100% recommend!

Hostel20 was my first volunteer experience and I only have good words for it! I shared a room with other three volunteers; accomodations were all clean and comfortable. Conditions and established working hours are respected. It's a nice environment to learn French or Spanish. The staff are super welcoming and answered all my questions patiently. The hostel has an international environment where you can connect with people from all over! I recommend this experience if you're looking to practice languages, meet people and get to know the area (Bayonne it's pretty, and well connected).
