Alex and Nina are very generous hosts and I had a lovely time at this hostel. The volunteers are amazing and it was great to meet guests. Nina even showed me how to make potato pies. However, there is a high expectation for cleanliness and specific ways of doing things. But, once you learn them and build trust with Nina it's easy. Give yourself a week to adjust.

The hostel is really in a great location! Close to several tourist attractions, close to the metro, market and cafes. I missed the heaters inside the hostel, which are really necessary now in winter. The work is not that hard but there are many rules and schedules to be followed. Nina, the owner, is demanding, controlling and doesn't speak English which makes it a bit difficult. What makes everything lighter are the other volunteers, who were incredible and I will keep them in my heart.

It is a place to learn about the organization and management of a hostel, since there are many norms and rules, only if you have to be a very patient person, and not take anything personally.

The work itself is not hard, good location and good benefits for volunteers like commissions and tours. However, I ended up leaving early due to the lack of respect from the owner. I constantly felt like nothing was good enough for Nina, and when she did not like something (often) her tone and manner was disrespectful. She uses the fact that she cannot speak English to disguise being rude, then says “sorry, sorry” and forces a hug, never changing her behaviour. I left early after being yelled at in Russian for a non-issue that I did correctly. They then tried to say I was a no-show.

Unfortunately, this can happen if a volunteer, even after two weeks, cannot do well simple tasks shown to her many times and continues to skip tasks from easy instructions.

In the hostel I met wonderful people doing volunteer work with the girls. Jung, Paula, Mylene, Julia. It was very nice to share with them and work together. The hostel has a family atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable. Nina has a special character, but if you give yourself the time you can get to know her and see that she has a sweet side too. It is strict so you must be prepared. Alex is quite flexible with days off. For me it was a very good experience. and I learned a lot to relate to characters other than mine. It has also helped me a lot to practice my English. I recommend it

Muy buena experiencia, sobre todo si buscas conocer gente de todas partes del mundo y mejorar un poco tu inglés. A veces algo estricto, pero en general bien!

C'était mon premier volontariat et ça c'est très bien passé. Alex et Nina sont strictes sur les consignes mais si vous êtes minutieux et que vous voulez faire les choses bien il n'y aura pas de soucis. Nina devient même attachante lorsque vous apprenez à la connaître. De temps en temps, si vous êtes chanceux vous pouvez participer à tours avec les invités de l'hostel lors de vos jours de repos. L'hostel est bien situé, à proximité des attractions touristiques de la ville. Je recommande fortement ce volontariat! :)
