I had a great experience here- 100% down the to amazing people I met. I would recommend it especially for first time Worldpackers as it was a very friendly environment with a lovely culture of really welcoming new volunteers into the group. While I was there they were several issues with bedbugs which was quite stressful but I don't regret going and hopefully that will have finally been sorted now!

I generally had an incredible time at the hostel, mainly because the other volunteers were the most amazing people and made the experience so so wonderful, i was heartbroken to leave! Unfortunately there was a bed bug situation during my stay, but the staff did take it seriously and we were all okay :)

Good experience at this hostel, with a great atmosphere and location. The distribution and nature of tasks could be improved, as they are numerous, and sometimes some volunteers may have more work than others. It's also necessary to improve the hostel's sanitation. Overall, a very good experience.

Work hours are respected and there are even times you finish early. Eva at reception is amazing🤩 The owners were not there to welcome you but the other volunteers explain everything and soon you are a family. Very good atmosphere. Lack of storage space in the fridge.There was an incident with some bugs and they didn't offer many solutions or medical support or anything like that...

Just a note that we did react immidiatley, sprayed all the room and offered to wash all your laundry for free and on that day there was no more bugs in the room. We know its not the most comfortable situation, but in hostels & hotels they do appear in high seasons, and we did take care if it by the procedure that works ✌️

This was my first solo volunteering experience and it was amazing!!!!! If you want to meet people, this is the place, i met a lot of volunteers that will be friends forever. Zagreb is very small so you rely on your free days to visit different places. The only negative thing I can see is that a volunteer got very ill and they told her that if she didn't work then she would have to pay the night, apart from that, i would totally recommend!!! :))) an unforgettable experience.

Thank you for a review. Just to make clear about girl that was sick. Yes we charge if its longer than 1 day what is free day in a week, but we gave 50%discount on it, and at the end she just switched a day off with another girl so at the end didnt even needed to pay ✌️

This year I wanted to volunteer at a place where I could meet people and I believe that the hostel fulfilled my wish. we worked from 11-15 as agreed and the tasks were manageable and pretty easy. the organization was a bit chaotic and the volunteers pretty much taught each other, the owners and workers did not really care that much about us (understandable since there were a lot of people coming and going) the whole experience was more about the other volunteers, I was very lucky bcs i was there with an amazing group of people who made the experience unforgettable, I miss them already.

I had a really nice stay. There is a lot of other volunteers. The work is easy and hours are respected. You live in a room with 5 other people with one bathroom. However, I became sick during my stay, and the host told me that if I dont work, I have to pay for my stay at the hostel, which I find a bit odd.

It was a truly useful and challenging experience. I could speak english and spanish and learn how to manage different tasks in the hostel. I improved my ability to solve problems and met people from all over the world . Eva and Mia helped me at all times and made me feel at home. Thank you very much❤️

This was my first volunteering experience and I really enjoyed it! The other volunteers immediately made me feel so welcome and we became like a family. The housekeeping work is easy and would often be finished within 2-3 hours so plenty of free time to explore Zagreb, and the centre is very easy to reach by tram. There was never any confusion about what needed to be done and Mia and Eva were helpful when minor situations arose. All I can say is it gets quite hot when working, so be ready to sweat! I definitely would recommend the hostel if you're looking to meet some great people :)
