Mi experiencia en Hostel20 Bayonne, fue simplemente 10/10. Desde el primer día me sentí bienvenido y parte del equipo. La organización es muy profesional, y al mismo tiempo cercana y cálida; siempre dispuestos a ayudar y guiar en todo lo necesario. Las tareas fueron variadas y enriquecedoras, permitiéndome aprender nuevas habilidades y conocer más sobre la cultura local. Además, el ambiente entre voluntarios y con los anfitriones fue increíble, generando una experiencia muy auténtica y gratificante. Sin dudas, recomendaría este voluntariado a cualquiera que quiera vivir algo diferente

Great city, lots of cute bakeries to explore! You can easily go to other cities as well with train (train station super close to the hostel).
The work is within comfortable hours and the work is mainly cleaning but not too heavy. The managers can be very set on you working your hours even if the work is finished and there's not really much else to do, which was a little bit annoying. This led to us working slowly since we knew we needed to fill our hours and efficacy wouldn't pay off.
The clientele is not young travelers but old locals searching for jobs and housing, a bit odd people

A very interesting experience and a great way to practise French. The hours are fair, and were communicated well in advance. The team was almost always very helpful, and the work was well worth the volunteer benefits.

Bayonne is a beautiful, albeit quite small, town, but the hostel is right by the train station, so you can visit the neighbouring seaside towns very easily.

Overall a very worthwhile experience, thank you Martin for your hospitality!
