Hostel n°1 was my first experience doing a volunteer. Alex is an amazing person, very kind and he always try to understand us. His mother lives in the hostel and she was like a mother for all of us, her food is amazing and we really have a great time. Alex respect all the things and he is very flexible. The work is not difficult and give you plenty of time to visit the city and even other parts of Bulgaria. The team was amazing and I will always remember this experience. Thank you to all the volunteers, to Alex and to mama for making me feel like home. I cannot wait to return ☺️☺️

Couldn't have had a better experience! the place is nice and very close to the center (I only used the metro a couple times in 3 weeks) and Alex was a great host! He helped me since the start and was very kind (also very chill with changing schedule to accommodate my needs). His mom was always around and even tho she didn't speak English she made me feel very welcomed and was great to be around. Alex also made me feel very safe in the hostel, and as a woman that of the utmost importance to me. the guests were nice and so were the other volunteers, I don't have any complaints :)

Everything is very relaxed and cool. The work is well organized. The morning and afternoon's shifts can be quite intense. Alex is shy but cool and friendly. It provides us with basic food to survive without spending much more. The staff is usually only girls and a beautiful sisterhood climate is generated. Have a great time the hostel, I hope to return soon. Thanks for all!

I had a wonderful time there, it was the best choise to stay the hostel. Alex is very kind and he provides everything to have a good stay. The hostel offers a variety of supplies for cooking and save some money. I also met so many interesting people, guests and volunteers, the girls were just like family, I had so many memories from this experience, it was first one and I want to keep traveling just like this ❤. Thank you for everything guys!!!

It was my first experience doing work exchange. The hostel is not that big and the host, Alex is so kind and generous so that there was no problem on work and benefit as well. Just it was winter at that time and there were not that many guests so that it was a bit silent time, mostly staying the hostel. If someone hesitate whether to do this or not, it's not bad I think, but recommend to do it shortly! But, it can be differed from person according to which plan he sets. GOOD LUCK FOR ALL!

La experiencia en el N1 es muy buena. El hostal está en pleno centro de Sofia, es pequeño así que en las zonas comunes siempre acabas conversando con todos los huéspedes y haciendo amigos, el ambiente es muy cómodo. El hostal es un negocio familiar: Nina es un mujer rusa muy divertida y cariñosa, al principio parecerá estricta con la limpieza pero te acostumbrarás muy rápido, es una persona muy fácil de querer. Dina es menos estricta y también muy buena persona!! Es un sitio muy especial en el que pasar una pequeña temporada y tu ayuda sin duda será bien recibida, lo recomiendo!!

En general recomiendo la experiencia! Tuve la oportunidad de trabajar con Dina y Nina. Pasé más tiempo con Dina, quien siempre fue muy amable lo que hizo que el día a día fuera muy llevadero. Los primeros tres días pueden ser un poco difíciles, ya que Nina quien te enseña, solo habla ruso. Con paciencia y la ayuda del Traductor, todo se entiende. Al principio es un poco estricta, pero con el tiempo vas a empezar a tomarle cariño. En cuanto a la limpieza, hay reglas claras y se espera que el trabajo se haga bien; y en cuanto a la comida recomiendo hablar bien que te dan desde un principio!
