I had a good experience at the hostel! Mat and Tas are very nice guys and I also met other cool volunteers. The work is okay when you are working with a sufficient number of volunteers and they respect what was previously agreed upon. About the city Edinburgh is an amazing one, there's a lot of things to do and get know. You won't regret to be there.

Volunteering in the hostel is really good! The hosts fulfill exactly what was agreed in addition to being very flexible and nice people! I did cleaning which means making beds and cleaning bathrooms, kitchen and common areas in the hostel and also normally I did it with more volunteers so the work didn't get very exhausting. You have to cook your own meals but the kitchen is very good and well equipped, and you can get free food frequently too! The volunteer's room is shared (8 people in bunk beds). Thanks Tas, Mat and Bren for the opportunity of volunteering with you :D

Tas and Mat were really amazing people. The job hours were respected and everything was settled through previous conversation. The location is great, and the bikes arranged were more than helpful. Our time there was really good and I would recommend to anyone who wants to know Edinburgh and stay in a good place. Thanks Tas and Mat!

This was my first volunteering experience and I would definitely recommend it. I got to know a beautiful and fun city, whilst I met really nice people, I had a really nice manager and co-volunteers, both with a great sense of humor. The working hours are respected, some days you might work and extra half-hour but some other days you finish half and hour earlier. As for the facilities, the common areas and kitchen are really great, the only thing I would improve is the staff room, particularly, the lighting. Overall, great experience, I totally recommend it.

This was my first experience with volunteering and it was great! The structure of the hostel is good — considering that it is an adaptation of a church. My only observation is about the volunteer/staff room: I believe it could be improved a little… And if you're an allergic person, you might need to clean your room quite often. The manager, Tas, is very kind in fetching food for all the staff during the week… guaranteeing everyone free food. I have so much more to say (and thank you for) but not enough space. I'll be happy to respond to anyone who wants to talk. Thank you the hostel!

The hostel is amazing and Edinburgh is a beautiful city However the volunteering was awful, the worst experience I've ever had, the staff complained for everything and were not good at sharing simple things like the room. The manager made fake statements, that I misused the rooms, and that I didn't do my work. They are very demanding and forget this is not a job is volunteering My advice is: always call the place because they can give fake information through the app

Foi minha primeira experiência como Worldpackers e no geral gostei bastante! O trabalho é tranquilo e nunca passamos das 3h diárias de tarefas, o que é ótimo! A equipe de voluntários e funcionários com a qual convivi foi bem receptiva e nos divertimos bastante! O quarto dos voluntários poderia melhorar bastante pois é apertado e falta iluminação. Mas nota-se que eles estão reestruturando o hostel como um todo.

The hostel was an a amazing place to volunteer, I met so many interesting people and I couldn't have asked for a more helpful manager! Sad to leave but I will definitely be back!
