The Experience

Help us managing the hostel! We're looking for proactive, fun and creative backpackers who want to volunteer helping us with the daily hostel routine (housekeeping, reception, cleaning). Also, we have many projects and ideas to renovate our hostel and make it a nicer and cosy place so there are some other tasks we could use a hand with like gardening, painting, repairing bikes and organising activities for our guests.

The hostel is a beautiful grass roots hostel perfect for those looking to experience nature in Bar, slowing down and going back to basics in an artistic, rustic hostel. Aleksander and Victoria are gorgeous people who were so welcoming and warm, I really appreciated how they made me feel. One thing to note is that the beach and city centre is around a 30 minute walk from the hostel but renting a bike from the city is an option. The views surrounding the hostel are not to be missed, absolutely breathtaking. I will cherish my time at the hostel 🙏🏼

I was under the impression it was a functioning hostel as the description didn't have anything to indicate that it wasn't. This wouldn't of been a problem but it wasn't the work I signed up for, the hostel was closed for a year so was in a pretty bad condition the bathroom was disgusting and even after cleaning it was still not in a state to host guests. One the first night me and another volunteer stayed up for hours just to clean the room that we would be sleeping in. Should've been advertised correctly, I left after my first day.

Overall, I really enjoyed my time at the hostel. The workload was very manageable and allowed for plenty of time to explore Bar as well as neighboring cities. I felt that organization among the volunteers could be improved, in terms of delegation of daily tasks. Aleksander was very respectful and flexible, and the hostel was cozy and quiet. I would definitely recommend this experience!

As for my first Worldpackers experience, I was very happy that the host choose me to help to run the hostel. I was very impressed how much social connections I made during my stay. Hostel tasks were quite easy and after finishing them it was plenty of time to see the area, rest, spend time in Montenegro beaches. Would recommend this hostel who wants to meet interesting travellers and spend quiet time in the nature.
