The Experience

This is a great opportunity to learn about the hospitality business and meet people from all over the world. If you enjoy people and making them happy, this could be the position for you. Your primary responsibility will be to clean and make up the bedrooms, and keep the house tidy. We are now doing self-check-ins so while we do not have a reception desk - you should be able and willing to help guide guests when asked.

This was my first Worldpackers activity. Its strengths were - The Niagara Falls are a stone's throw away - Enough free time (cleaning takes 3/4 hours per day) - The chance to visit the closest cities during days off such as Buffalo / Toronto - The owners, Andre and Carroll are the sweetest However do not expect the city to be touristic/welcoming or full of young people. Part of the city is semi-abandoned so I recommend it to those who seek peace and quiet places. Ask in advance if you'll be alone working to be prepared :)

Carroll and Andre are very nice people! I had a beautiful experience in their little guesthouse. They made sure I settled in okay and had everything I needed. First the work may seem overwhelming but after few days you pick up the pace and you basically finish working in 3/4 hours. The work contains some cleaning, making beds and some extra projects like painting or weeding. The waterfalls are breathtaking but the town itself is not that exciting. You'll be pretty close to Canada though and can plan a short trip in Toronto or Vancouver. Overall I had 100% positive experience in the hostel!

The Hosts are both great. They are sociable, comprehensive and caring. The workload is fair, and the place is located in a very convenient place in the city, with the bike they lend to volunteers you can visit many cool places around.

It was my first Woldpacker experience, and it was awesome! Carroll and Andrea are great people, and I will miss them a lot. They are creators and real magicians, they transform old houses into cozy and comfort places, where every guest is given a very hearty welcome. They are taking care of everything, I don't know how they do it! It was a pleasure for me to be part of their life for a while, I really enjoyed my time. Carroll and Andrea did more for me than I did for them, and they will always hold a place in my heart.
