It has been an amazing month volunteering at Black Swan Hostel, a true home away from home. I made friends with wonderful people (volunteers, receptionists, travelers) and had a lot of time to discover Sevilla. I would absolutely recommend!

I spent 4 weeks in the Black Swan the hostel felt like that was the perfect time for me to leave. The best attributes: -Being around happy, fun people (Volonteers and Guests) - Being in the city center close to the water, restaurants, bars and parks - Family esque feeling between the Volonteers -Activities "Worst" : - Constently people around (I fled to the city or into parks) - the work is quite chill, often there is not much to do (Morning shift; Cleaning and making beds; Cooking dinner and shopping; night shift) I had a good time and would do it again Thanks for having me Diego and Team!

I spent two months at Black Swan and I really had such a good time. The work is pretty easy and there is 5 different shifts so it's not like every day looks the same. The manager is also very flexible with the schedule. Everybody was absolutely friendly and welcoming :) I can recommend this experience to everyone.

This was my first volunteering experience and I couldn't recommend it enough! The work was more than fair and the shifts were always flexible. Hostel itself is the hostel, well-organized, and it has a nice common area which makes it super easy to meet people from all over the world. Other volunteers and staff truly made me feel at home from the moment I arrived. The memories and friendships I have made will stay with me for a lifetime. I am beyond grateful for the chance to be a part of this incredible community. See you all soon! <3

This was my first time volunteering and I had the best experience at Black Swan hostel. The amazing staff, volunteers and guests will make your stay the best. The work and work hours are fair and flexible. The hostel is great located and I had lots of time to explore the city and also to take day trips around in Spain. I am so happy that I got to spend my first volunteering here, could not have wished for a better place. I have made friends and memories for life, hope to see you all soon again! -Ida
