The experience in Faro was disorganised and isolating. My accommodation was changed last minute twice, and there were no other volunteers staying with me. There was no "hostel," just several apartments with teenagers staying in them. I had to clean these apartments alone. Cristina was kind but other cleaning staff were rude. The team made basically no effort to make me feel included. Faro is nice, as is the accommodation and free food, but I left early as I did not enjoy it. One night I got locked out and no-one helped – Natalia told me not to call her as she is not my "emergency contact."

Thank you for the experience, was a pleasure to be there. We ended up working in Faro, not Seville. No regrets though, it is so much closer to the sea. The whole team was very welcoming and if you had any problem or just questions, they truly tried to help you. The work wasn't really hard, we did mostly cleaning and some check-ins, but this varies a bit depending on what time of year you're there. The hours were okay too, sometimes we worked more, but other times also less.

We loved our stay in Faro. The team was amazing, everyone was really helpfull (especially Natalia). We sometimes worked more hours but the next days we worked less, so it was very nice, because we had a lot of time to go to the beach (as we wanted). Faro is beautiful small city. The cleaning tasks were mostly like what you do at home, so it wasnt anything bad. We also did some check ins which we got to talk to travelers a bit more. Overall I would recommend you going to Faro. ;)

Me and my friend had a really great time in Faro! Everyone welcomed us here and we felt really safe and included. The organization and communication was always great and I think I really learned a lot about communicating as a team! We had a lovely time here and would recommend the stay!

It was an amazing experience to stay at the hostel. The tasks were not very difficult, working hours as well as days off were respected too. I had enough time to explore the city, the location of the hostel was convenient too. People who are working there are very friendly and funny. A special thanks to Alba and Yuli, who were always willing to help and made this stay more memorable. You should speak at least a little bit of Spanish, because almost nobody speaks English there, tho ;) In general, I would recommend to stay at this place and experience the culture of Spain.

Sevilla Dream Hostel was interesting. When I showed up the receptionist didn't even know I was coming and that there was a volunteer coming in. Though besides that I showed up thinking I was going to be helping in the receptionist desk but they told me they needed me for laundry. I didn't mind since I got to keep my body moving and be outside most of the time. They bought food every week and made sure they had some stuff for me since I'm vegetarian and all they do it eat meat here haha. Everyone was pretty welcoming and helped me out with the tasks.

I had a really amazing experience, from the place to the city and the people. I 'd recommend it for sure, the only thing is that you need to be aware of is that you have to know Spanish because most of the people you'll get to know in the hostel probably do not know English

I had a very nice experience at the hostel. The other volunteers were really lovely as well as most of the staff. They welcomed me very warmly when I arrived. I had great time with them although sometimes the cleaning ladies got frustrated about me not understanding completely what they say. Our room wasn't in a perfect condition, but the people made it feel like a home. Also the location of the hostel was perfect and allowed a chance to explore the city. Thank you for the experience :)!

I've been living incredible memories in Sevilla, it is a charming city and the energy of the historic center is magical. At Sevilla Dream Hostel I created connections with very special people that I will take with me for a lifetime, but I also experienced the problems mentioned in the reviews. The room is really small and opening the window can be unpleasant, there is a lack of kindness in working relationships and the organization could be more efficient and clear.
