Eu tive uma ótima experiência e aprendizados, foi a minha primeira experiência em voluntariado eu fiquei muito feliz de ser aceita mesmo não falando inglês acho que isso foi muito bom por que não tive problema em comunicação sou grata por ter tido essa oportunidade pq tentei outras vagas e não consegui mas aqui fui bem recebida por voluntárias ❤️🥰e pelos anfitriões Mama e Alex . Nesse tempo aprendi muitas coisas legais tanto nas tarefas quanto pessoal, conviver em um país diferente do meu que era meu objetivo e superei minhas expectativas com a cidade que linda e cheia de pontos turísticos.

Mi experiencia fue de puro aprendizaje, he tenido momentos lindos y momentos de difícil comprensión. Creo que al principio es dura la intención de parte de los anfitriones al hacer todo de manera muy rígida, pero con los días se vuelve más hogareño y al ser un hostel pequeño, me sentí muy cómoda. Además creo que es un tema de actitud al encarar las tareas y sin dudas le agradezco a la encargada del hostel todo lo que me enseñó, y a Alex por ser tan comprensivo y flexible con los horarios. Al ser de culturas muy diferentes siento que crecí mucho en cuanto a adaptarme a las circunstancias.

Bueno fue mi primera experiencia como voluntariado, aquí aprendí a tener tolerancia y paciencia, las tareas en el hostel la primera semana es dura si nunca haz hecho limpieza o tendido una cama, pero después ya fácil, mejore un poco mas el ingles con las voluntariadas .

You left halfway ahead of time. And gave us 3? You could have reported this to us at the hostel, but no, it's your nasty act. If I had known you would do this, I would have given you a 1.

Working at hostel n1 is definitely a learning experience. The work is very detailed, but becomes a little easier once you get familiar with it. Nina, the figure with whom you relate most, speaks through google translate and this generates quite a few communication difficulties. But in general Alex and Nina are very helpful if you need anything. With the volunteers, a great understanding and sense of teamwork was immediately created. The location of the hostel is great for visiting Sofia. And as soon as you can, join the daily tours outside the capital, it is really worth it!

It was the first place I had a language challenge.English is essential for dealing with guests, but it's not that common in the Balkans. The Hostel housekeeper embraces our mother tongue with a translator. It's a great opportunity to sympathise with another culture.The work is a little repetitive, but it's part of a good cleanness. Alex and Nina are always available to help us, as is the team of volunteers. I'd say if you're emotionally mature for this experience, you'll have a lot of fun, especially exploring the city center (which is so close and accessible) and also taking the Day Trip.

Un nueva y diferente experiencia para mi, en la que pude cumplir una meta personal de enfrentarme a nuevos retos. Alex es una persona muy comprensiva y flexible con los voluntarios, Nina un poco extricta con las tareas pero con gran un corazón. todo es cuestión de saber comunicarse con ella, pude compartir un paseo con ella en la Ciudad y me divertí mucho.

This was my first experience and I really enjoyed it! Alex and Nina are very respectful persons, if you need anything, just ask and they will listen :) if you come here, do visit Vitosha Mountain and Plovdiv! This hostel allowed me to meet some amazing people that for sure we'll meet again somewhere in this earth <3

The outdoor patio was such a vibe and the living room was a great gathering space where I got to know a lot of people staying in the hostel. The owner Alex is very kind but hardly around. His mother Nina is who trains and oversees the hostel. She could communicate her needs in a nicer way in my opinion. Everyone's first day training makes them want to leave, forewarning. She's overly particular, even if you do the job right she strives to find something wrong. I also constantly had to defend myself on other peoples mishaps the entire time I worked there and it was so frustrating.

Usually after a couple of days of training, volunteers understand how to do it, but not in your case. You did not follow the instructions and elementary rules for working with guests, cleaning and so on. For example, every time you could not clean up after your meal until you were reminded of this and YOU WERE RUDE at the same time. So we had to remind you of every outstanding task. We have an instruction that everyone must follow, step by step, there is nothing complicated. The other volunteers did an excellent job with all the tasks. I didn't mean to write you a bad review.
