This hostel is amazing! I've met lots of people, could visit nice places (both in the hostel and in nearby cities) and had so much fun. The work can be intense some days, it was hard for me to adapt in the beginning, but you'll never have to work more than 4 hours. The staff is very nice, they are all good people. I want to let my special thank you to Chris, the manager, he's always trying to make the experience the best possible.

My time at the hostel Backpacker's Hostel was amazing. Chris, Herve and Virginie are very accommodating, and the work hours are really easy with basic cleaning and housekeeping shifts. The hostel was great, with amazing facilities such as a big kitchen and lots of quiet spaces to relax in. Location was superb, with many places to visit nearby around Scotland. Would highly recommend!!
