A great experience! Alex and Nina (his mother) are always available for anything we may need, the hostel is comfortable and has everything we need, plus the location is great. Nina is a strict Russian lady, so do everything the way she asks, follow the house rules and you won't have any problems, if you give Nina a chance you will see how much she takes care and worries about us like a mother, she can be very sweet and fun! Sofia is a wonderful city and I highly recommend the experience. :)

I had a great time the hostel n1, both Alex and Nina were always helpful and available for everything, whether it was a change in the shift or an help in the tasks. I'm also so grateful that the other volunteers where always nice and welcoming to me when i first got there, they really made a difference in my experience. I would recommend going at the rila monastery and lakes trip, it's really worth it :)

It's my second experiences in the hostel, Nina and Alex are wonderful host, be patient with the culturel barrier's, if you don't understand something ask again and Nina will help you, she will treat you like one of her childs, teach her new words she is happy to learned, the task are pretty easy just copy and put attention in the way that she do the things! if you sell the tours you will be able to go and also you will get a commission! you cannot leave the hostel without go to the seven Rila lakes!!!

My experience the hostel N1 was really good. They expect you to work hard in your shift but at the same time they are too generous with food, schedule changes and the tours you can join. I met a lot of wonderful people there, and i will definitely miss Nina, who took care of me all this time. Thank you so much for the opportunity.

Everything is exactly as described. Other volunteers were very friendly and always ready to help. Almost every day trips for guests to interesting places, for volunteers these trips are free. The hostel is not for parties, everyone must keep quiet from 22:00 to 9:00. There are instructions for everything. If something is not clear, you can always contact Alex, he is sometimes in the hostel and is always available via WhatsApp. I recommend!

I had an amazing time here! Alex was always helpful and flexible when it comes to volunteers' needs. Everything that's described was provided. Nina was like a mom to us and it was really hard to say goodbye. She cooked for us, supported us, and was very protective. She's very energetic and likes to spend time with volunteers. If it comes to work she likes certain things to be done her way but that's not a problem at all, she'll show you everything. Work itself felt more like helping family. I also loved connecting with hostel's guests, I made a lot of friends there, highly recommend! :)

It was my first Worldpackers experience and I definitely loved the time I got to spend in the hostel. Alex and Nina are great hosts, Nina is the mother of the owner and for me, she was like a typical Polish mom/grandma, it's sth that some people might need to adapt to, but personally made me feel at home. The hostel itself was a really nice place to live in and if you just need anything, just ask :) Nina also sometimes cooked delicious food for us which was amazing! And can't forget the people I got the chance to meet during my stay there. I had fun and I do recommend the place definitely :)

I had a great time during my stay here the hostel. Alex and his mother, Nina, were very welcoming and provided the accomodations and food listed in the post as well as several homecooked dishes. The other volunteers were all extremely nice, helpful, and fun to work alongside. The area was very walkable and the public transportation easy to use. I went on one of the tours offered by the hostel and it was the highlight of my stay. I recommend to any volunteers looking to stay the hostel.
