I stayed for about two weeks at the hostel and I absolutely enjoyed it! Fatima was a great host, she has a big heart and despite some misunderstandings because of the language barrier you would feel like you were part if the family. The work was very easy, mostly just simple cleaning and changing beds. Working hours are definitely respected as it is not a too busy place. In our free time we mostly lay in the hammocks, played with the dog, or explored the beautiful landscapes. I already miss the breakfast of Fatima with her selfmade fig jam and the freshly baked bread!!

This was my first ever volunteer experience and it was great. The host Fatima was always so loving, kind and helpful. And even if her English is not the greatest, we always managed to understand each other. She really made this place feel like home. The tasks were simple, cleaning the hostel didn't take much time as well as being at the reception. Most of the day we had a lot of free time on our hands. Other volunteers as well as guests were also super chill, we got along very well. I'd recommend this experience to anyone who's looking for a more relaxed and quiet place to stay.

Stay in the hostel Backaper Hostel was amazing! Fatima - the owner is the most kind person, she was taking care of us like her own children, when it was too much hot outside she was telling us to take breaks from work. The place is peaceful and quiet, if you're looking for some chill between your travels It's the perfect choice. We've met a lot of travelers with interesting stories, had a BBQ nights and even celebrate birthday with one of the volunteers. We had little trouble to get there, because the buses timetables on website is not relatable, so always ask locals!

I had a beautiful stay in the hostel! I was 14 days in the hostel. The place is amazing, surrounded for chickens, plants and flowers. The hosts Fatima and Eduart are kind people. I met a lot of travellers with incredibles stories. For me was a rewarding experience. Hours and tasks agreed upon beforehand were respected and fulfilled. Homemade breakfast was included. Thanks a lot and I hope come again someday!

I was responsible for Social Media which was a nice job, as it's only 2hrs a day and Fatima and her family are really kind. The downside is that at the hostel you don't have a proper work space. I didn't have wifi in my room and you can only sit outside at the tables to connect. Also it gets very cold and dark soon in the evening, the rooms are super cold, there is no heating and sometimes there's no warm water for the shower. The hostel is not clean, the bathroom wasn't cleaned once while I was there (dirty sink etc). There are no lockers or proper space to put away your stuff.

I had a perfect experience, I couldn't have chosen a better place. the hostel is a quiet town, the hosts are friendly, and there is a good relationship with the volunteers. Working hours are respected. The hostel is very family friendly, and we feel like we don't want to leave. I had a wonderful experience.

Fatima é uma querida, que me recebeu com muito carinho dentro da própria casa. Nos primeiros dias foi muito difícil por que não estávamos conseguindo nos comunicar direito o que causou algum desentendimento entre nós duas, mas com muito respeito e paciência (e Google tradutor) conseguimos conversar e nos entender. Tivemos momentos muito divertidos e agradáveis! Ouvimos música albanesa e Fatima me ensinou algumas coisas sobre a culinária. Foi uma experiência muito rica e positiva!

Muy agradecidas con Fátima ☺️, una excelente anfitriona que nos hizo sentir como en casa en el tiempo de nuestra estancia. Pudimos disfrutar de nuestro tiempo gratamente pues las tareas son sencillas y logramos descansar y disfrutar también como poder apoyarla en lo necesario. Nos ofrecieron un desayuno genial todos los días con su toque local que amamos. Lo recomendamos mucho, solo tendría que decir que si desean ir en invierno llevar ropa adecuada pero por lo demás 10 de 10

Llegamos por dos semanas y extendimos nuestra estadía dos más. Las tareas fueron sencillas y se respetaron las horas propuestas. El desayuno siempre fue generoso y casero. Fátima, la dueña del lugar, es una gran anfitriona y el gran motor que hace que todo funcione increíble aquí 💜
