Since I arrived to the hostel I felt really welcomed by the staff and volunteers! The tasks and the scheduled was always respected and there was a lot of flexibility which I valued from my experience. A big plus I found during my staying were the facilities we had access, two kitchens, a large living room and a lovely garden. Also the location was unbeatable, just around the corner from the meadows, which is a more relax area from the city center but still close enough by walking. Overall, I did enjoy my stay at the hostel and would love to go back at some point in the future!
