My experience was overall good. Communication very clear and good. Easy work. Lovely internationals to meet. The hostel itself was less clean than I expected it to be, but still ok! There were a few strange people who coming in and out there, but that's maybe everywhere. The bed-dorm was not what I expected, not tidy and clean at all. But if you are a good sleeper and don't mind ;). Location great, close to shops and the beach. Wollongong is a very nice place to relax! And met nice other volunteers 🦋🫶🏼

This was such great experience! You just work a couple hours a day, you get to enjoy all the incredible hostel facilities, the location couldn't be better and Kerry and her sons are the icing on the cake. Spent a month there and I wish I could have stayed longer!

Incredible experience! I meet an incredible group of people in a wonderful location! I strongly suggest it if you want to disconnect from a busy city! 10/10

I had a lovely time in Wollongong thanks to my time and the people at the hostel. As my first destination backpacking it was great to have such a kind and helpful host while also getting to meet some extremely cool and sociable people. There was almost always something going on at the hostel and the people there are very friendly and quick to help you acclimate. The work is exactly as listed and rarely went over alongside the host being very amicable to any changes or time off you need to explore the surrounding area. Definitely recommend a stay or volunteer experience here.

I highly recommend this hostel! Kerrie and Nathan made me feel welcome from the start. The hostel is packed with a lot of fun workers and other people that stay long term, which makes it feel like a big family after some time. The job is normally 2/3 hours of easy work 6 times a week inside and outside. I also had an other job besides the hostel which was good to combine!

I'm so enthusiastic about the experience that I had in this hostel. Karry and Nathan are the best host, the work is not that heavy and you are always with the others volunteers so you never get bored. More or less there 10-12 volunteers each time so you will always find a new family ready to welcome. In this month I create a lot of precious friendship that I will never forget, I'm so thankful for this experience

Nathan and Kerrie made me feel so welcome from day one. I made incredible connections with people from all over the world and made equally incredible memories. The job is mostly as described, it's about 2hrs of work a day with one day off but they are very flexible. I was able to have a part time job at a cafe to make money while staying here. Wollongong is a truly beautiful place with lots to do and the hostels location is perfect, really close to the beach and shopping centres. Highly recommend this experience to any open minded traveller.

First time travelling and this was the perfect place to start. The work is eazy and short where you can add your own initiatives to make it more rewarding if you want. It is easy work where you can make it as fun as you like inside or out. Outside of the working hours the owners don't really have to do much as there is a general, chill atmosphere where everyone hangs out or does their own thing while respecting others. As soon as you get out of your shell and get used to the people and situation you're in, it will feel like a vacation.

It was a great place for a first time traveler! The host were amazing! They were super friendly, nice, accommodating, and flexible! I would highly recommend! The work was pretty easy and self explanatory, just 2 hours a day, and then you have the rest of the day to enjoy Australia!
