My experience at "the hostel" was very nice! The boss, Alexey, is a very kind person and always listens when you have questions. He always helps you when you need it. The work was fine; I enjoyed working there and doing things well without rushing. For me, the work was very pleasant. Thanks to Alexey and Sofia for this great experience!

If you want a quiet, nice and comfortable place, this is the perfect place for you. This is the perfect place for you. They respect the work schedules. they give basic food, they are kind and helpful. i really liked that place. by the way, it is a very quiet place. thanks Alex, Bart and Asia for everything. On the other hand, I would have liked more rotating hours per week. Recommendation. It's a nice place and the functions are simple. If you want something with a lot of movement it is not for you. If you like something quiet it is the perfect place. Translated with DeepL

This is a kind of volunteering that I suggest to have a work home job at the same time. You have a 5 hours shift, but takes only 40 min. to do your tasks. It's not a busy hostel, so they need you just to be there. The only positive points, you have a couple of things free (Eggs, bread, pasta, rice, sauce), it's easy to go to the city center and Barthel is kind.

My experience in the hostel was very good, the employees are nice and the tasks are very simple, about an hour of cleaning and the rest at the reception. They respect the 5 hours of work and the 2 days off, which allows you to discover the country and even nearby countries.

The tasks are explained in detail before starting. The timings are followed and it's 5 hours a day and 5 days a week. There is two days off and lot of time to explore the city. The shift begins with cleaning and remaining time you need to be at the reception. Don't miss a chance to visit Plovdiv. The metro and supermarket are walkable distance. Bartel will be there most of the time, if there is any doubts he will clarify you or if not you can call Alex and ask for clarification. Both of them are friendly. Overall, good experience and would recommend others.

A very quiet hostel to work at! Each shift has allocated cleaning tasks, but once those are done you can hang out in the reception area. It's an older building and has its quirks, but is clean and comfortable. Very close to the metro that makes it easy to see Sofia on your time off.

Since it was my first experience, it was good. You can feel very welcome and respected. Asya one of the guest she's always there and you can have fun with her and also helping her cook, she's like the grandma of the hostel. It feels very familiar and you all the time end up having a good relationship with all the volunteers and also with Bartol the supervisor:) you have a lot of free time to do whatever you want around the city or at the hostel. I think if you need to rest a little from all your tiring trips, this is a great option to consider.

My experience at the hostel was great! The volunteers' schedules are well divided and the work is not difficult. The hostel is not in the center of Sofia, but it is easy to get there by metro (there is a station nearby, a 5-minute walk away). They provide basic food items such as bread, eggs, lentils, milk, oats, tea, coffee, etc. If you want something extra, you can buy it at a market close to the hostel. My experience was very peaceful. I recommend! And I leave a special hug for Asya <3

It was a great experience. The tasks are easy and the hours and shifts are very flexible. Bartel and Alex are always available and ready to help. The hostel is very quiet, it is close to the metro station and supermarket. You will have plenty of time to discover and enjoy the city, as well as the nearby mountains. I met great guests and volunteers that became real friends. And I had the pleasure of meeting Asya (the old lady that many people talk about here). She is the sweetest and strongest person I have met in my life and I had many special moments with her that I will remember forever.
