I really had a great experience at the hostel. All the staff members were very kind to me. I enjoy working at the reception with Ali, Youssef and Illyas. I did like to talk with international travelers. The local food was very good. I meet others volonteers and we became friends, they were such good people to get in touch. The hostel is very pretty and near the center. I went for 2 excursions on my days off to see the waterfalls and the desert(was really amazing) . I do recommand you to work at the hostel, if you want to discover the hostel and to get a great memory of it.

My experience at the hostel was truly wonderful.It was hard to say goodbye. The staff is amazing, always making you feel welcome and at home. I learned a lot about Moroccan culture, picked up some Arabic, and made great friends.The work is simple and changes daily, sometimes in the restaurant, other times at the reception with 5-hour shifts. The hostel also provides three meals a day, which is a nice bonus. I'm very grateful for all the people I met and the memories we shared. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality. I hope to come back soon and see you again.

I really loved my time at the hostel. I was working from 8 till 4pm, 4 days a week at the restaurant for breakfast and lunch, and could enjoy 3 days off exploring Morocco. The tasks were simple and clear : taking order, serving and cleaning up. I spent a lot of time with the staff, and I had the best time. I learned so much about Moroccan culture and learned to speak some words/sentences in Arabic. Everybody was so kind and welcoming. I will miss everybody... The hostel is beautiful and there are lots of places to chill. I also made some friends among the guests. Thank you for everything 🫶🏻

The hostel is a great place with amazing people, both staff and guests. The managers (Xavier & Nadia) are lovely people, make your tasks and hours very simple and respect your personal time also. The work is easy and it also allows you to meet the guests while connecting with the local staff also. The staff at the hostel are not only some of the most welcoming and kind people I've ever met but I am also very grateful to call some of them good friends. There's no doubt in my mind I will return & if your debating volunteering with the hostel I wouldn't hesitate for a second. ❤️🫡

My volunteer experience at the hostel was amazing! I worked 8 hours a day, 3-4 days a week, in the hotel restaurant during breakfast and lunch. My tasks included taking orders, assisting with the breakfast buffet, clearing tables, and keeping the area organized. The hotel provided three daily meals of delicious Moroccan food. The highlight, however, was connecting with the incredible staff who welcomed me like family, despite language barriers. Thank you, Nadia, Fatima, Rashida, Ali, Youssef, Mohammed, Zouhair, Amine, Melika, and the housekeeping team—I'll never forget you!
