Help us at breakfast shift / social dinner at our Hostel

You need to be prepared to work at a fast pace and handle multiple tasks in a hostel. If you don't have the experience and physical strength, you might not be able to manage, or the host might not approve you. This requires further investigation, I believe.

I had a mixed experience. As mentioned before, the lack of communication/organization create stressfull and unnecessary situations. The daily tasks and the weekly job hours were not as described. In fact, they match with the other volunteer function offered, so this is a simple problem that can be solved easily. The daily taks includes helping in the breakfast shift and social dinner (night shift) and putting bed sheets in the rooms, really smooth. Since you're sharing room with other guests, I would recommend this place for 2-3 weeks maximum, otherwise you will start getting exhausted.

Had a very nice and quick time at the hostel! The hosts did make some last minute changes to the schedule but quickly accommodated my issues with said changes and were very respectful :) As long as you communicate your needs fully to the host, ask questions instead of making assumptions, and come with a good attitude, everything will run smoothly. Thank you very much for having me!!

My experience at the hostel was quick but I loved staying there! I arrived in the low season, so most of the days I worked less than the 5 hours. The hostel is super clean! Peschiera del Garda It's a beautiful place and I really want to go back in the summer to enjoy the lake and the whole summer vibe. The staff was easy to deal with. Thanks to all, I hope to see you guys in the future! :)

This experience was everything you could dream of as a volunteer. As soon as you open the door, you feel the atmosphere and realize that this place is home. Peschiera is in a great location, you can reach everything and have enough time to explore Northern Italy. I met so many wonderful people here, the entire staff is full of charismatic and exceptional people, and I had a best time with the other volunteers. You will understand cultural things like organizations, communication and information sharing is not the priority, but relax and enjoy every moment . ❤️

The hostel has a great vibe and most everyone working there is extremely kind and friendly. Fantastic location, you can spend your free time exploring the lake or taking day trips to nearby cities. In general, it's everything you could want from a work exchange. Only 2 small downsides: 1) they don't put up volunteers separately from guests, so during your stay you'll probably be sharing a room with a weirdo or drunk for at least a bit. 2) Some disorganization, like communication of procedures was sometimes contradictory (or belated), but they don't take it personally and neither should you.

My time in Meet Garda Hostel was lovely, all the staff are really nice, thanks to Alessio and Mateo that made this experience even more wonderful and the girls in reception that would always have a big smile for you. Work sometimes is hard but schedule is always fixed and you get helped. I made life-time friends with the other volunteers and every day was a dream. All lake garda is beutiful and you have tons of free time to explore and enjoy. I hope to come back one day. The few issues we had mostly with the security guard were talked and everyone wass very understanding.

One of the best things about Meet is the location. There are a bunch of small, charming towns around Lake Garda that you can explore. And if you're craving a bigger city, you've got options too. The work itself is pretty easy but consists of a few hours in the morning and then a few hours at night. Your free time is more limited as a result, specially when going on a day trip. Updating the description to say you'll only work one shift a day when there are enough volunteers seems like an easy solution to avoid creating false expectations. Had a great time overall though. Grazie mille everyone!

My time in Meet was unforgettable, I had an amazing time. The staff and other volunteers were very kind and always willing to help. They really appreciate your work. The guests were also super friendly, you meet people from all over the world! The location is exceptional to get to know northern Italy. There are a few small towns around the lake which are perfect to explore after working or on your day off. The hostel is clean and with a lot of places to relax, the rooms are very comfortable too. Thank you so much for the experience! Can't wait to return in the future!
