Volunteering at Northern Europe's Best Social Hostel!

I had an amazing experience volunteering at the hostel in Riga, Latvia! The work is relaxed and well-organized, and the team is excellent – everyone is welcoming, helpful, and professional. The atmosphere among the volunteers is also wonderful, with people from all over the world, making the experience even more special. The flexible schedule allowed me to explore the city and make the most of my time there. The hostel has excellent facilities with everything you need for a comfortable stay, and it's very well located, close to tourist spots and Riga's nightlife. I highly recommend

The hostel is a vibrant and very social hostel, you'll meet people from all around the world, the staff are friendly and welcoming, if you're a party oriented person this might be the place for you as there's many activities such as pub crawls and trivia, Riga itself is small and cozy, very picturesque and easy to get around, special thanks to Julius, Brandon, Lena, nish, vlada, līva :)

This was my first volunteering experience and it was definitely the right choice! I felt very welcomed by all the staff and the receptionists were very helpful and made sure we knew what tasks we had to complete and helped teach us what to do on shift. I made great friends with all the other volunteers as well as the guests. It was a very cosy environment which made it so easy to get to know each other. The activities were great and fun to organise and overall i had such a fun time. I would definitely love to visit again.

This was my first experience ever to work in a Hostel and i loved every minute of it. The people, the other volunteers and the guests were so friendly and it is soooo easy to get in touch with them. It was the best first experience i could have ever wished for. The work is very easy to do and you have a lot of free time. The receptionists also try to make your stay as fun and easy as possible. I miss legit every single person there and k know i have created some lifelong friendships there :) Definitely would go back there again

This was my first time volunteering at a hostel, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The work was reasonable and the time I spent with the hostel's exceeded expectations. From the host Julius, to the receptionist team, and other volunteers, everyone was so lovely and supportive. The roster was flexible allowing time off to explore the Baltics, and the free breakfast is one of the best I've ever seen in a hostel. The host went above and beyond to create memorable experiences for the volunteers by organising outings to football games and other events.

I was at CS for a little over a month. I enjoyed my stay here, the staff is amazing, the layout of the hostel is very cozy, they encourage you to hangout with the guests. Working hours are respected and the work is simple/ straight forward. They are flexibale with the schedule and work with you if you want the more social shifts or not. The group of volunteers where great! With all that being said me/ a few of the volunteers had some strugles with the manager, It was nothing ever serious just very frustrating. I would still would reccomend the hostel and the city as a great place to work/be.

My time at Cinamon the hostel was Honeslty so amazing. Was lucky enough to have a great group who I bonded with very quickly. I did have to cut my time short due to unforseen circumstances and Julius was super understanding and accomodating. It was my first volenteer experience so I didn't know what to expect but I will Honeslty cherish my time here forever. Something to consider though is the work can tend to be on the harder side, and I feel like it can be confronting if you don't have prior hospitality/ hostel experience. But overall worth it for the standards of the hostel itself!

My stay at the hostel was fantastic! The hostel is really welcoming and social, it's a great place where you'll have the opportunity to meet a lot of great people. Work can be a little disorganized at times, but for me it didn't affect the overall experience. Thank you all for everything, I have many beautiful memories here and for sure I will be back!

I've had the most wonderful time in this hostel: the people, the events, the atmosphere and every little adventure made it into an unforgettable experience. Also, Riga is an amazing city with so many things to explore. The work was sometimes adequate and even enjoyable, at other times it could get exhausting and a little bit confusing. I feel like the organization needs a little improvement and attentiveness, in order to offer a great experience to all the volunteers. Nevertheless, I still consider the hostel a magical place, one that everyone who loves traveling should get to know.

I had an absolutely wonderful time at the hostel! This is a cozy, comfortable, and social hostel full of the most kind and fun staff, volunteers, and guests. I felt right at home volunteering here, with fair work and working hours. I felt that I was valued and appreciated for my work by the grand majority of the staff. More than anything else, I made so many fulfilling connections and found a love for Latvian folk dancing! I'm so sad that my time at the hostel is over, I couldn't recommend volunteering here more:)
