I spent 2 greatful months in the hostel Backpakers. Eindhoven is very beautiful city! The tasks aren't rough and you can use the bikes for free that is pretty cool!. About the hosts both were very kind with me and the other volunteers. About Michelle I know he may express himself in a rude way sometimes but actually he is a really good man, he cooked for us many times and you can have a good conversation with him. Think about the hostel is their business so you have to respect their rules, that's it. I totally recommend this hostel and I'd like to work with them again. Thanks a lot for everything!

My experience at the hostel was very nice. The crew was great, everyone got along amazingly. The hostel is very calm and sweet. My job at the reception was also calm, lasted only 4 hours per day, not very hard. The city is definitely a place I want to go back to. Very quiet, very peaceful, and also very small. Ask to be trained by Franklin. He is very thoughtful and helpful. Always ready to help if you need it. All in all, it was a great experience! I definitely recommend it to those who look for a nice, chill place to spend the month.

3 volunteers working as 5, 4 hour shifts but 3x a day = 12 hours a day, 3 room changes (2 nights at Michel's stairs, inside his room, with no privace) and a VERY rude owner... All this joy and I lasted less than a week at the hostel, leaving was the best decision for the trip of my life. If your plan is leaving your home for no fun, no learning, no free time, no pay check and no friendly envoirnment this is your place ;) Just read his aswers to other volunteers and make your call.

I REALLY DONT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE! Don't be fool like me, don't let be deceived by these good reviews, it is just favor exchange. Believe me. I applied to social media, night shift, reception and cleaning. When I arrived just cleaning. We could not settle down in some room, they made us (the volunteers) change our rooms 3 times (just because he wanted). When he saw that we were unhappy, said that he was the owner and could do whatever he wants. Michel (the owner) was making everybody tense and afrai... Guys, I just have 600 characters, please send me a message and I can explain better!

Very sad to read this review.
Dear Junior, it looks like it that you are just to young to understand how things work in real life.Real men(adults) talk face to face.
If you where so unhappy, tense and afraid, then why didn't we hear anything from you when you where here??When you can't do a simple job like cleaning, we couldn't let you do the night shifts or reception because you are not responsible enough. (just to young)
If you paid a little bit more attention then you good know the reason why the volunteers needed to change rooms ones in a while. Our guests are a little bit more important, and as you know we are always busy. That means you had to change rooms. Besides that.......
Changing rooms was to protect you, the gay volunteer and the female volunteers, from annoying guests from Italy.
One thing you did understand, is that i am one of the owners, and when i ask or tell you to change rooms, you simply have to do that.

Kind Regards,
Michel

I feel really disappointed to the hostel, I applied for a certain type of work and the hours specified was only "4 hours"... They don't have employers and want the Volunteers to do all the work. There was a Volunteer that worked more than 8 hours, when she wanted to do anything for her like going out and meet the city Michel acted really rude to her. I talked to him saying that what he was doing was wrong and he became more rude saying that the type of job I applied (Videography and social media) is only a hobby. hile the Volunteers was doing all the work Michel only walked with the dog.

I had a very pleasant stay at the hostel would highly recommend his hostel. It was a home away from home and the hosts are great people. The hostel is very clean and tidy and you won't be expected to work more than the stated hours, giving you enough free time to explore. Being conveniently located near train/bus stations was also very handy!

Easy tasks and Frank and Michael are very helpful, they teach you how to do it the best way. I was free to do what I think is the best in the hostel social media, and it is a very important thing. The hostel is near of the city center and also of very quiet park. A few minutes on the bike and you may even find some incredible farms and a different landscape. The bar and the rooms are cosy, a very good vibe. You should go to the hostel.

Michel and Franklin were amazing hosts, they were really heplful during my whole stay. You can learn all the things about hostel work there and hours are fairly flexible. The location of the hostel is excellent, close to the train station and main attractions are in walking distance. I had a brilliant time there, thank you for everything :)

It has been an amazing experience working with wonderful people for me! the hostel such a great place to stay. Eindhoven is a beautiful, calm and safe town. The Hostel has a very good location. It is takes around 15 minutes to get to the central station by foot. The owners of the Hostel are very kind and nice people. Everything was clean and very well organized. Michel and Franklin thank you very much! And of course, Roos! It is very smart, lovely and fantastic dog! I really want to recommend this hostel for all people who are looking for a friendly atmosphere and helpful staff in Eindhoven!
