Everyone was warm and welcoming, the tasks are easy, and you learn everything quickly. If you have questions or something unexpected happens, there's always someone to help. I made friends from around the world, and we shared lots of laughs and great talks. The vibe felt very family-like and they're quite flexible with the schedules too. Special thanks to Caro-she really cares a lot and I loved talking to her. The new apartment is 30 mins away,manageable by metro, but sometimes after a night shift can be a bit draining. Still: I had a great time and really recommend it! Thank you to everyone!

I had an amazing time during my stay, working as a night shift receptionist. I always felt welcomed and part of the team, I made some great friendships, had a lot of fun and gained useful experience from this place. Big Thanks to Caro and Fernando for the help and support, when it was needed!

Working at "the hostel" was a really nice experience. I worked as a receptionist, and when I first started, I felt a bit nervous about my tasks because everything was new to me. However, the staff was always there to help and support me with anything that came up, at any time of the day. They also know how to celebrate your successes when you're doing well. The hostel is a great and safe place to stay and work. The work can be both very intense and calm, but it's always enjoyable. I received a warm welcome and truly felt at home (casa). See you soon!
