I volunteered for a month at Lisbon Destination Hostel and absolutely loved it! The staff at LDH is so amazing, everyone is so kind and welcoming to volunteers. It is a great community there. The shifts were reasonable, either doing reception, beds, or breakfast. They give you a lot of days off. Expect to work around 25 hours a week. The atmosphere is great there and the hostel is a very nice place to stay. I loved the location of the hostel, being right inside a train station is so cool. You don’t hear any train station noise when you’re inside, though! I highly recommend this host.

Una excelente experiencia en Lisboa! Tanto con el resto de los voluntarios como con las personas que trabajan en el hostel (recepción, desayuno, bar, housekeeping) me sentí muy a gusto y me encantó trabajar con ellos.
Solo diría que falta un poco de comunicación con los managers.

I stayed for 5-6 days! The hours were respected even tho you may work 8 hours long some days! The overall experience was super disappointing! I chose this experience because I saw very good ratings but since the moment I arrived,I was expected to figure out things on my own and they blamed me and they told me why didn’t you ask reception. The bed was sleeping it was half broken and the breakfast was okay but for the hours you were working it was nothing a volunteer should be volunteering it’s not labour . When I chose to leave, I received personal and unprofessional comments

Hello Maria,
You weren't expected to figure things out on your own but to be a little more proactive and interested.
You never received unprofessional comments. Actually, we believe the only person unprofessional was you, when you told us you were not leaving and we could count on you after being asked, and just left the day after without saying anything.
We recommend you to clarify better the conditions next time. :)
