I had the best time ever at the hostel!! I met a lot of people from different countries, got to know the culture and made the best memories ever. I truly recommend coming to this place. The owner, Salvo and the manager, Reza were the best hosts I could've imagined. The working hours were fair and everything worked out as explained. The volunteers are being respected, the hostel is lovely and the guests were respectful as well. This, as my first volunteer experience, was the best experience I could've wished for. Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity of this experience!!!

I had the best time, other volunteers and managers were so lovely and made the experience great. There was a fair bit of work, but it was all outlined beforehand and the hours were respected. Overall would definitely recommend the experience 😊

I spent 6 weeks here at the hostel, and honestly, i thought it would feel like forever - but it flew by so fast and i am so sad that it is already over :( I had the best time ever !! Reza, Salvo and all the other volunteers were so nice and welcoming since the very start, they soon became like family to me and the hostel felt like home! 💗 The work and hours were exactly what we agreed on beforehand and there were no problems whatsoever. I am so grateful for this experience and to everyone that i have met, I will truly miss this place ! Hopefully i'll be back soon 🥰
