I had a lovely time volunteering at this Hostel, it is a very cosy and welcoming place! Erika was an amazing host, answered any questions I had and told very interesting stories :) There is so much to do around the hostel - from the causeway coast and the mourne mountains, to the botanic gardens and St George's Market. There is a real community feel within the hostel and I loved getting to watch Eurovision with everyone! I would highly recommend!!

Volunteering at the hostel was a wonderful experience from the moment I stepped through the door. This was my first volunteering experience, so naturally I was apprehensive, but this cozy, calming and caring space was perfect. Erika is an excellent hostel manager, she laid out tasks very clearly for me. I did the morning shift which mostly consisted of cleaning, and I really enjoyed it. She gave me lots of tips and tricks for housekeeping and hospitality. I will miss Belfast, Erika's stories, walks in the hostel Gardens, and learning about the rich history in Northern Ireland :)

I've had such a lovely time volunteering at Erika's hostel (and have extended my stay!!). She has created a beautiful place that's so relaxed and you can tell is a passion project. Working shifts are very clear and Erika is often around the hostel or very easy to contact. She has the best recommendations for what to do in and around Belfast and for being at the hostel I've loved the excessive baking we've been doing for guests, the movie sessions and Erika's stories. Being so near to the botanic gardens is gorgeous also and theres always music on in the city. I can't recommend enough :)

Erika has created a welcoming space with charming decor, photos, and writings from past guests and staff, adding a personal touch. The hostel offers a peaceful atmosphere that blends business with the beauty and history of Northern Ireland. Erika is not only a fantastic boss but also a great friend and storyteller. Her passion and dedication are evident in every detail. During downtime, we often baked, did crafts, and chatted around the dinner table. I feel so lucky to have been part of this hostel, even if only for a short time. I'm grateful for the warm hospitality, thank you for having me!

Volunteering at the hostel was such a wonderful experience! It's such a cosy hostel, the rooms are great and the breakfast was so good with so many options! Erika truly made my stay feel like a home away from home, and was always on hand if I had any questions! The relaxed and comforting atmosphere here made it super easy to make friends to chat with all evening! I couldn't recommend volunteering here more, Belfast is beautiful and Erika has all the best recommendations for where to visit during your stay! I hope to return in the future!! ◡̈
