1 FEMALE volunteer needed for December

Volunteering at the hostel was a good experience overall and I'd do it again. The work was a bit demanding but manageable, and I met some great people. The biggest downside was the heat — the building has na/C and it gets extremely hot in summer. Also, even when we finished tasks early, we had to stay until the end of the shift doing nothing, which felt a bit unfair. Still, I'm grateful for the experience!

Hi Gonzalo, thank you for your feedback. We are glad that you had a positive experience, though we understand that the hot weather may be challenging without air conditioning. The volunteers are normally asked to stay behind and do additional tasks until their shift is finished. If you have been asked to stay behind, but not given any tasks to do, then this is something that we will have to discuss with our kitchen and housekeeping staff.
Happy travels!

I appreciate the opportunity to collaborate. However, there was poor communication from the reception staff, who expected volunteers to know rules that had not been explained and reacted with reprimands. I also had to work while sick, which I found inappropriate. It would be important to improve the clarity of information and the treatment of volunteers for future experiences. Thank you.

Hi Yender, I am sorry you had a negative experience while staying with us. If you could send me an email with specific examples, I can discuss them with the team, to ensure it won't happen again. During your induction it's been mentioned to you, that if you are sick you can tell Reception before your shifts has started. I am not sure to which occasion you are referring, but if you could provide more information, I'd be happy to address that too. Kind regards, Peny - Duty Manager

The experience overall wasn't bad, the work hours were usually respected and the work load wasn't bad. Still, there are changes to be made. First of all there were rats on the flat and they didn't do anything for two weeks. Also they put stops on the windows so that they could not be opened more than 10cm and while i understand they had some reasons I think it shoul've been talked with us before leaving the flat so enclosed. Lastly the wifi didnt work in the rooms nor the flat, which wouldnt be a huge problem, but in the rooms theres practically no signal so you aren't able to use your data.

Thanks for your feedback and for volunteering with us. We work with a pest control company who visited twice during your stay to place traps and seal gaps. The building is old, and while we don’t have rats, small city mice can sometimes enter if the kitchen isn’t kept clean.

Window restrictors are a legal safety requirement, and Wi-Fi is only available in common areas—we understand that this may have been frustrating.

We appreciate your help and wish you all the best.

I had a good experience working at the the hostel the hostel. There were definitely some areas for improvement, but overall it was a positive experience. I'd recommend it mainly for its excellent location — it was incredibly convenient to walk anywhere. Plus, I made some great friends during my time there.
