The Experience

We are a newly renovated but well-known hostel in the heart of Kuala Lumpur with years of history in the Bukit Bintang district. In late 2023 reopened for business and need at least one helper straight away to help rebuild the hospitality and atmosphere that Dorms KL once had. ๐—ฃ๐—ผ๐˜€๐—ถ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€ ๐—”๐˜ƒ๐—ฎ๐—ถ๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜‚๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜† ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฐ: ๐—ฅ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—ฅ๐—ผ๐—น๐—ฒ.

I had an amazing time at the hostel in the heart of the hostel, Malaysia. The hosts, especially Pandu, Darcy, and Chris, were incredibly welcoming, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere. The central location made it convenient to explore the city, and the dormitory was clean and well-maintained. What made the experience truly special was the opportunity to meet and connect with fellow international travelers. The work was simple and flexible, allowing for a perfect balance between responsibilities and exploration. Overall, the hostel provided an exceptional stay, and I highly recommend it!

I recommend the hostel! It is in a great location surrounded by street food, clubs, bars, etc. the volunteer dorm had great AC & is gender separated. The work is *just* reception/ check ins/ socializing. The manager Darcy is very flexible with the schedule, which was great! ๐Ÿ˜Š The only improvementsโ€” local staff was constantly late for shift change. Also, when there was problems in the hostel, often times the owners didn't have any policies / rules in place for these situations, which sometimes was stressful. However, I still recommend it for a 1 month, short-term position in the hostel! thank you! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ

I absolutely loved my time at dormskl. The managers (Alex and Zen) made me feel like family from the moment I arrived. The work was easy, enjoyable and flexible. I would highly recommend dormskl to anyone looking to volunteer in the hostel, its an amazing place.
