It was a good experience, the facilities are quite comfortable, the work almost always gets done quickly, and very little money is spent. Sometimes I felt more like a worker than a volunteer, but it's only a few hours of work, so it's fine for me.

The balance of the experience was certainly positive. I met cool people, I practiced English, I walked around the city and got to know other cities. Daiana, our headcleaner is a good person and does everything she can to help. The food is sufficient and the accommodation is good. Working hours are generally shorter than agreed. The negative points are: you will not feel like you are in a relationship of volunteer & hosts, but rather of a worker & boss. Perhaps because we feel like employees, a sense of community and cooperation is not created between the volunteers.

The experience was great! There are only a few hours of work… our boss Dayana is sweet. Very helpful and helps us with everything she can. The location is very the hostel too. Those were good days!

My stay at the hostel was good, although not what it could have been. The location is really good, it has several pubs and clubs around, it's a very young and artistic neighborhood. It's also practically in the city center. The facilities are comfy and well equipped. The problem was really with the managing. Although the work is fairly " easy "(even if heavy sometimes), we always felt this tension. For many times I didn't feel treated as an adult, but instead, monitored. It just felt that I was there only to work.

The time I spent at CentralBackpackers was really good, I met a lot of people and made a lot of friends! The hostel staff is very respectful of schedules and are always available! Really recomend the experience!!

I like the experience here because the work was easy, but the hostel is not an exciting city because it does not have many activities to do. Despite its lack of vibrant attractions, the hostel does have a few noteworthy landmarks, such as the beautiful Victoria Square and the historic the hostel Cathedral.

The schedule for taking care of the volunteering activities is always respected, which allows you to manage your free time with no complications. The meals are truly included, which is awesome for keeping in budget. About the hostel itself, I could not say it's a city I got fond of, however it is a highly photogenic city and I did enjoyed going for a running alongside the canals early mornings.

Hostel is good, provides money to buy food and free breakfast. The other volunteers were very friendly, the receptionist Daiana is a great person. The hostel is very close to the center but the neighborhood is not very nice. I believe that the problem is the volunteer (staff) room, it is very moldy and is located outside the hostel, on cold and rainy days you need to go outside to use the bathroom inside the hostel. I thank you all for the opportunity and for the time I was in the hostel.

They always need people, so they answer requests quickly. the schedules are fair and fixed and they respect them, all the activities that the hostel demands can be carried out in the given time. The team is always very friendly; we cook for everyone and do activities outside the hostel. The facilities are regular but the rest is super. If the intention is to improve your English, you can practice the guesses of the hostel, if you want you don't spend any money since the hostel covers the three meals and lodging, there are also cleaning products that we can all use.

Volunteering there was a really interesting experience, I met a lot of nice people along the way and made really nice friends. I would like to thank the owners for trusting me to be a temporary head cleaner, especially Jani and Misi for all the help. About the work, the shifts are regular and, when there's a decent amount of volunteers, the work is easy. The food is also a positive point about BCB, you can cook your own food. the hostel can be quite boring during the day, but the nightlife is def good. Something that has to be improved is the staff room, the problem with mould is persistent.
