Volunteering here was my first solo traveling experience and I couldn't have asked for a better time! Effie is an awesome host, she's super welcoming, made me feel very comfortable and was always willing to help me out whenever I had a question. Her family is super nice as well and her son is seriously the sweetest. My tasks were exactly as agreed, I did the reception work in the morning and looked after the son, which was always fun. The hostel in general is very cool, I met lots of other travelers and the location is great. Would 100% recommend volunteering here!

It was an amazing experience. Take care of Allan, Effie's son remind me the time I used to work in a education business and he is so cute and a smart boy. Help in the hostel's reception helps me improve my English skills and be connected with the others travelers. Effie is really nice and kind with all of us.

The experience was amazing! I learned a lot with this job in the bar, because I have never worked in this environment before and the manager taught me many things and she had a lot of patience! I recommend this experience to everyone! I really love it!

The hostel was my home for a month and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Effie and her family are great people, very hardworking and a lot fun to be around. I had a great time with Allan, their 5-year old train lover son. Soda and Effie were very polite, welcoming and introduced me to a few great places in BKK and surroundings. P Tan was lovely and a true companion. The job matched what had been agreed and the working hours were accurately respected. The accommodation met all my needs. Overall, it's an experience worth having if you're planning a trip to BKK!

I stayed at the hostel only for a couple of days before leaving due to the lockdown. Effie was really welcoming and helped me whenever I needed anything!

We were blessed to have Eric with us though it was just a short period. Eric was a good heart person. He has a bar knowledge and social media skills. The jobs were perfectly done and he always asked if we need any help though it's not his shift. He was flexible and enthusiastic about learning how to cook. He enjoyed eating local food and learning cultures. He helped me taking care of my son and speak English with him regularly. We highly recommend Eric to the other host and of course we'd love to have him with us again.
