Edinburgh Backpackers Hostel -Help us! Housekeeping/Cleaning role

My time at the hostel was great. My time there was cut short due to family issues back home. Resulting in me returning to Australia. But the managers there were very considerate to my issue. The hours are respected and everyone there made me feel welcome. Very close to shops and the Main Street. I would recommend this hostel to people who want a true authentic Edinburgh experience.

Logistically, this experience is fantastic. The hostel location is perfect, the work is easy to learn and hours are good (there are busy days, but that is to be expected). I met wonderful volunteers which was my favourite part. My only concern was with management. Although I felt warmly welcomed at the start, the staff attitudes seemed to change over time. In my opinion, they often forgot this is a mutual exchange where we both benefit, and it left me feeling undervalued. Communication was at times, unempathetic and authoritative.

I had an amazing time with volunteers. Great working hours and location. However, in my experience I didn't like how managers would sometimes treat other volunteers. Overall, I had the best time in Edinburgh and I've made some great friends.

The hours are very good. Usually finish at 1-2pm, and then you have the rest of the day to explore beautiful Edinburgh. Great location in Old Town close to train station, attractions, and pubs for nightlife. I had the fantastic opportunity to meet a great group of volunteers and formed many good relationships.

As a whole experience, I really enjoyed my stay at EBH. The hostel is located in such a good place surrounded by so many great bars with live music and clubs. The work was ok mostly during the week but it got busier on the weekends and meant we worked mostly for the four full hours. The volunteers I met here though were 100/10 and I had a great time with them everyday! I would recommend coming here but would maybe advise only staying for a month or so. I would totally recommend the Scotsman for a drink and great live music :)

At the hostel, I met so many forever friends and loved exploring and getting to know edinburgh! I did enjoy my stay, it was my first solo trip and thought the hostel was a great place to stay, as it was close to centre and many things to do around it. I would have liked to connect more with the staff sometimes and be able to talk to them more but EBH bringing my friends and I together was something I'll never forget and making so many laughs and memories💛 #plank Thank you!

I've absolutely loved my time at the hostel!!! Was a great first Worldpackers experience. The other volunteers were a ton of fun and the work very manageable leaving you with lots of time to explore the city and surrounding areas. Big thanks to Sergio, Merche, and Pedro for creating such a warm and welcoming atmosphere! Would absolutely recommend!!

The tasks are easy and you get the hang of it really quick. The team is super friendly and helps you when you need it. It is housekeeping so you know what you get yourself into but the 3 hours go by really fast. Don't forget to request your days off early enough when you want a specific one. Had a great time xx

I enjoyed my stay at the hostel so much! I made really good friends with the other volunteers and we had a lot of fun together. Edinburgh is absolutely amazing and the hostel has the best possible location! The amount of work was bearable, although there are many stairs and the bags are quite heavy sometimes. You can ask for specific days off and you usually end up getting them, so that's nice. It's super cold at the hostel, so it's important to bring a lot of warm clothes. It was my first volunteering experience and I don't regret choosing the hostel for it :)

Absolutely loved my experience at EBH! Great for first time volunteers. The work is very manageable and expectations are clear. Just be prepared for lots of stairs ;)
