My stay at the hostel made me feel really comfortable. I came for one month, but I ended up staying for two. Sarajevo is a city that truly made me feel at home peaceful, welcoming, and full of amazing history. Thank you to the whole team for the great energy and for always making us feel comfortable. A big hug, and see you again in the future!

I had a great time at the hostel. Ivan, Alisa, Aida, Denis, and the other volunteers were amazing. The daily tasks were clear, and they always helped us. It's one of the best hostels in the Balkans, and I really recommend it for a nice experience. I already miss everyone there.

I absolutely loved my time at the hostel! It truely became my home away from home and the team became my family. I did not want to leave. The team - Ivan, Alisa, Denis, and Ida - were so welcoming and kind, it was a pleasure to work with them all. The location was so central and the vibe was amazing. I would highly recommend this hostel for anyone travelling to Sarajevo. Thank you the hostel for an incredible experience I will never forget!!

I loved my time at the hostel. The staff are great people. When you work with them, they will do the bulk of the tasks. The tasks left for you are very simple and not taxing, it truly is a volunteering in that aspect. Even though the work is very laid back and doesn't “feel” close to 30 hours, I do think 30 hours a week with no meals is a lot. We got amazing guests every day which I loved, something about Sarajevo and the hostel attracts the nicest people. The volunteer room is great. Overall I definitely recommend!

Volunteering at this hostel felt like a home, the hosts were beyond nice they truly made us feel like we belonged there! The tasks were so easy and even if we did have questions everyone was happy to help, there was no such thing as a silly question. The hosts also gave us great recommendations on what to do on our days off, where to eat good Bosnian food and they even taught us a few Bosnian words! Thank you Denis, Ivan & Alysa for your hospitality :))
