Hello Wild and Urban the hostel! As you may know, it was my first time volunteering and i couldn't have chosen a better place. At first I can say I learnt a lot of new things, working here gave me opportunity to be a better adult haha. Other than that, I met a lot of nice people from all over the world, and I for sure can say I have friends around continents now. As for the city, Bratislava is really different from the cities I've visited before, it has a nice old town, but it was the hostel that really made my experience the coolest. I hope one day I can come back! Thank you for everything!

Volunteering at Wild the hostel through Worldpackers was my first experience, and it took time to adjust. Every day was packed—not just with work but also social activities. Tasks/the way hostel works weren't always detailed so asking questions was key. I asked a lot and managers were always helpful. This experience is great for those ready to step out of their comfort zone since the social aspect is intense. Saw a couple of volunteers leave early as they couldn't adapt sadly. If you're open and adaptable, it's amazing! Huge thanks to managers Jamie and Mads for your constant support <3

We stayed in Urban for 3 weeks in November and we loved the whole experience. The fellow volunteers were amazing and we felt so welcomed, they explain everything to you. The tasks are exactly the same as described in the profile, for us it was more fun than work but sometimes it could be a bit exhausting because of multiple hangovers. The hostel is all about party and going out, so be aware of that. But if you love to party and meet a lot of amazing people this is the right place for you.

I had a super fun time at Wild! I connected really well with the other volunteers. The managers made the experience very collaborative and gave many opportunities for volunteers to bond. The shifts are long and intense but the experience made working worthwhile.

I'd recommend this volunteering for up to two weeks to those who don't mind dedicating time to daily hostel activities, optional extra tasks, and parties. Shifts varied from 10 am-3 pm to 11 am-4 pm, with frequent unpaid extra hours and mandatory 6 pm meetings that made it hard to explore the city. Meals was basic, and dinner often ran out for volunteers because guests were served first. Still, it was a life-changing experience, where I met amazing people, gained confidence, and made lasting memories, especially at the river parties with a bonfire and the castle view in the background.

Volunteered for only 2 weeks so I was assigned to helpshifts, and not gonna lie - the drunk shifts were the most fun. I loved meeting ppl from all over the world, and the volunteers felt like instant friends (& good cooks too!) The drinking scene wrecked me tho. Perfect if you're built for the nightlife lifestyle :>

This was my first Worldpackers experience and it was amazing! I met wonderful people and I'm going home with a heart full of love. 💛 The 5-hour shifts are respected, but there are also extra daily tasks (not mandatory but recommended) and a daily meeting at 6 pm. Sometimes this limited my afternoons, but it's part of hostel life and also part of the charm. Overall, I always felt welcomed and, most importantly, free to be myself.

The hostel is social, central and full of parties. But volunteering is not ok: more than 25h, daily meetings even on days off, very little food, and 0 respect for boundaries (nude pics in work group). Safety is the worst: the hostel pushes a “hard party” atmosphere, but there's zero proper management of risks. Nobody sober in charge, no one trained, with multiple situations of alcohol poisoning, inappropriate behaviors, and injuries because people had consumed too much. This is seriously unsafe for guests and volunteers, and it felt like no one responsible was taking it seriously.

My overall experience was very good. It was my first volunteering with Worldpackers and I really enjoyed it. I stayed at Urban, a more relaxed hostel, but I joined Wild's parties almost every day and it worked out perfectly. The highlights were meeting people from all over the world, practicing English and making friends I plan to keep for life. Parties are free for volunteers, which is great if you like nightlife. On the negative side, the volunteers' dorm at Urban was dark, dirty and unhealthy, and meals were limited, with dinner being vegan and breakfast and lunch budgets often insufficient
