Black Swan Hostel was my second volunteering experience with Worldpackers. There were ups and downs, both personal and volunteer-related. I would not trade the experience for anything in the world, however, I wish certain things could have been handled differently. Some shifts are better than others, some staff members are kind and welcoming while others create a hostile environment. At the end of the day, I would return to Black Swan hoping to see Diego, the receptionists, and the amazing guests and volunteers I got to meet along the way!

It was a really nice experience! All the staff welcome me really good and I spent an incredible month here. You an met wonderful people (both volunteers and guest and people who work at the hostel) and the work is not stressful(a part from housekeeping 😂). You work five times a day for five days. One negative aspect is the room that they give volounteer is really small, would be small even for two people but we live in 6 there. But overall a great experience that I would definitely 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

Just left Black Swan hostel where I had the best time volunteering! If you want to stay in a international and social environment, this is the place for you. It's centrally located and you can easily explore beautiful Sevilla and other cities close by on your free time. Thanks to the volunteers, amazing people in the reception and the cleaning staff for making my stay the best. I will miss you all so so much and can't wait to come back one day! Love Maja

I've had the best time at Black Swan. It is well located in the heart of Sevilla with everything you need within a 20 minute walk. The work is as described, the hours are fair and it's very well run and clean. It's a great space to meet travellers from all over the world with the hostel running free family dinners, paella nights, taking guests to flamenco shows and pub crawls. The other volunteers and staff are wonderful and I have made friends for life here. I'm so grateful to have found this the hostel hope to be back soon! ♥️

I had never volunteered anywhere before and definitely enjoyed the experience! The times of the shifts were always respected you easily get used to the work after a short time. The hostel has a great location if you want to explore the city, go out or take day-trips on your days off. Most importantly, I had the opportunity to meet so many different people from all over the world! Between the guests and staff members, I've found some friends I truly wouldn't want to miss anymore :)

This was my first workaway experience and I could not have asked for anything better. The hostel attracts awesome, friendly people all around. The host is very respective and understanding about quickly changing situations. I cannot recommend volunteering here enough.
