My journey at hostel N1 was incredible. The place has a lot of rules and this makes everything work perfectly, the work is all explained, there's even a manual with all the tasks if you need it. Working hours are strictly respected, and days off too. I had the opportunity to take a tour that the hostel organized for guests. Alex, Nina and Dina, the people I had contact with, and they were incredible, the hostel is a family hostel and they made me feel part of it, Nina treated us like real children and prepared typical food. For sure, if I pass through Bulgaria, I will go to hostel N1 again.

I had an amazing experience at this hostel, and I'm truly grateful for the time I spent here. Dina and Nina feel like family to me, they always made sure everything was well-stocked, asked if I slept well, and genuinely cared about my well-being. The work can be intense at times, but once you get used to it, it becomes much easier. There are many rules, but they help create structure and make it clear what is expected, which is great for understanding the workflow.

The hostel is in the heart of the city! Supermarket in front of it and every nice place is close to the hostel. You have a room for the staff and the working hours are respected. The work shifts are very organized and everything you need to know is documented and easy for you to follow. Half of the month Dina is in charge, which means that your work is going to be fine. The other half is with Nina, she is very rigorous and not patient at all with any mistakes possible. At the beginning is difficult, but then she trusts you and it's okay.

Aquí te dejo la traducción: "This was my first volunteering experience, and I had never worked in a hostel before. I found it very interesting, as it allowed me to learn new skills and understand what volunteering is all about. I had great colleagues, Gabriel from Brazil and Dimitri from France. The work at the hostel was very clear, with set rules. At first, it was a bit challenging, as Nina, Alex's mother, is very strict. Don't get me wrong, I think it's great to have rules to keep everything in order. However, I think communication could be improved, as Nina doesn't speak any English, and

My journey at the N1 hostel was amazing. The accommodation and service were as agreed, and the fact that it has many rules helps you know exactly what you need to do on each work shift. Working hours are strictly respected, and days off too. The atmosphere was always friendly and respectful, with moments of relaxation. Alex, Nina and Dina were the people I had contact with, and they were amazing, the hostel is family and they made me feel part of it.

My experience the hostel N 1 was grateful. The first week was very hard because the tasks could seem difficult, but when you learn everything will be easier. The hosts are confidents, patients and they try to make you feel at home. Thanks you for your availability.

I learn a lot in the hostel, the tasks of reception are very easy to do, Also, it's a little bit more difficult the others task like make beds or cleaning, but with time and dedication you can do it quickly and good. Nina always offer me her help when I have many things to do, and I also help her at the night in reception, like a team, she is a very good person and I like to sit with her to share histories and learn new things. I want to say thank to Dina for teach me the first week, and Alex for his flexibility to change shifts. Thanks to Julia and Jan for help me . I only can say priviat
