My stay at the hotel was great, people are kind, the volunteer job is light like clean rooms, wash dishes, mop and hoover floors, it's easy to learn. The neighborhood is quiet, calm and only 30 min of Edinburgh so this experience was perfect to me, otherwise i could practice English and learn more about the Scottish culture. Tks Sav, Josie and Gillian

My time at the hotel was amazing, the hours are respected and the tasks are simple, which gives you the chance to explore the nearby large cities like Edinburgh and Glasgow. The Lodge is a beautiful place and allowed me to meet such amazing people since fellow volunteers and the staff which can not be more welcoming, specially Gillian, our manager, who is the best ever and will be always there to help with any issue you may have. Will totally recommend this volunteering experience.

We came in at a unique time as they were only hosting Ukrainian refugees. The people here were the best! Sav (owner) welcomed us in graciously, and genuinely really loved getting to host us and Gillian (manager) was so fun to work with and so helpful with the day to day tasks. Generally, it was a more relaxed position–cleaning the bedrooms and bathrooms, doing the dishes after meals, general tidying, and the occasional night shift. Overall, we had an awesome first worldpacker experience here! Great people, cozy hotel, straightforward work and only a 30 minute train to Edinburgh city center!

The time I spent at the hotel was amazing!! Words can't describe how much I love this place. The host is incredible and makes me feel at home and always asks if I need anything from her. The work is easy and the days are very relaxing, and if you plan you can always do something during the day. The location is perfect and is right next to Edinburgh and Glasgow. I recommend this hostel to anyone going to Scotland, the host and staff are the nicest people I've met on my travels and I will definitely be coming back just for them.

Sav is a very friendly and lovely person. The location the Hotel is close to Edinburgh and is possible to explore Glasgow by train or by bus. The Hotel is 5 minutes walk to the train station and the bus stops. I had a great time I met friendly people I could to explore beautiful places and I saw it snow for the first time in my life.

My experience here was great, the host Sav is a very lovely and sweet person. Especially if you're mainly looking to explore Edinburgh or some of Scotland, this is a great chill place to be close by. 5 min walk to the train station and many bus stops. I didn't get to know many Scottish locals (as there are currently Ukrainian refugees) but they were so sweet as well. The shared dorm is rather small and the beds are a bit rough BUT there is often some availability in other rooms depending on vacancy; just tell Sav any issues you have and she's awesome about being flexible and helping you!

I had a very good and peaceful experience at the hotel. The schedules are respected and the tasks are very easy to carry out. I recommend it to anyone looking for a calm volunteering experience and starting out in this world.

Se puede mejorar la comunicación: claridad en las instrucciones y expectativas del trabajo a realizar, ya que se hacía lo que estaba escrito en un documento, pero luego en la práctica se esperaban cosas diferentes. Y el compromiso y organización, en cuanto las tareas a realizar, a pesar de que el trato era bueno, faltó mayor claridad, acogida y guía respecto a los deberes y derechos para los voluntarios. Lo positivo flexibilidad frente a circunstancias y solución de problemas y acceso a parque para recreación, tren para cualquier lugar cercano y ciudad central y mercados cerca.

Making changes on shifts times in a 4 week stay requesting days off and not wanting to do shifts allocated .
Hosting was a little challenging as not come across so many requests in a short stay .

Other volunteers adapted as did other team members .
But I felt it was unfair on others
Encouraged to speak directly to hosts if any issues arise .
This experience does not suit everyone . The bikes are fixed 3 of them . Thanks for your feed beck always welcome. We wish you well in your ongoing trips
