I had a really great time. The staff and other volunteers are fantastic and made my experience wonderful. The working conditions matched the description perfectly, and the managers were very kind, clear in their explanations, and respectful of our pace. The hostel is very welcoming and cozy, and it's located right in the center, making everything within walking distance.

The hostel has a great location, right in the city centre, and it's easy to do everything on foot. The common areas are comfortable, and the staff and volunteers really made my experience better. The team is attentive and supportive, but they do expect the work to be done properly, which can feel demanding at first, though you improve with time. The only thing that could be improved is the staff room. Overall, I'm very grateful for the experience and I'll never forget this family! 💙

I spent one month volunteering at the hostel! The hostel is in the perfect central location, as well as being a great base to reach surrounding towns and cities on days off, which Sergio was really flexible with requesting specific days off in advance. The work could be a little tiring depending on the number of guests, but working together alongside other volunteers always made it enjoyable :) Despite staying in a dormitory of 17, the hostel quickly became a home away from home and there were always people to chat to and plan evening activities! Thank you for having me! :)

I had an amazing experience at the hostel !! The staff is really nice and welcoming, I met so many wonderful people. The dorm is a bit messy so it can be a scary at first but everyone is very respectful and I got used to it very quickly. Thank you Sergio, Merche, Sarah and the rest of the staff for everything ◡̈ Suzanne

I had a wonderful time volunteering at EBH and would definitely recommend this experience! The working hours are fair and respected, and the managers are super nice and supportive. The hostel's location is also perfect, right next to all the main attractions. I would have stayed longer if I could! Big thanks / merci / gracias to Sergio, Merche, Sarah, and all the amazing volunteers I met there 🫶🏼

I've been loving volunteering at the hostel! Everyone is so friendly and the location is perfect. Housekeeping can be a lot if you're not used to it, but it's amazing that you get all your nights to yourself! I've now extended and work reception at the hostel :)

Very enjoyable experience at this hostel. Friendly team energy is strong, getting along and helping each other out on shift and during free time. Tasks are pretty straightforward. Sergio, Sarah and Merche are great managers that do well at coaching and being encouraging. The hostel is in a good location too, close to Royal Mile, Holyrood Park, Edinburgh Castle, the train station and multiple free museums. Definitely recommend!

I had such a great time! work usually takes four hours, sometimes less, so there's plenty of free time. since this was my first volunteering experience, i had to get used to the tasks and the speed but the managers are understanding and supportive. i've met so many great people and made lots of memories in edinburgh.

I really enjoyed my time at the hostel. The workload can be a lot at times, and the managers have high expectations, but they also support you throughout and are always giving feedback to help you improve. They want everyone to be successful. The location is amazing, and as the work is finished by 2pm you have a lot of time to explore. There are a lot of staff at the hostel, which can make it a little intimidating at the start, but everyone is so welcoming, and if you put in the effort to talk to people it will be reciprocated. Not a party hostel, but everyone is still having a good time :)
