We are searching for a volunteer to help out with housekeeping and general cleaning. This includes a relaxed schedule of bed making, cleaning bathrooms and taking out the trash etc. We provide training and all equipment needed to make the work as easy as possible. No real experience required, just that you understand how important a comfy bed and clean shower is inside a hostel! Busy days are always supported by our own staff, so no worries. :)

I could not have asked for a better experience at the hostel, everyone is truly the best and ensures you feel comfortable. The work is very easy and Alex helps you feel comfortable with all the tasks you do, you are never asked to do more than you agree upon which is amazing. Thank you for the best month and hope to come back❤️

I could not have asked for a better first volunteering time than the one I had at the hostel! The whole team is just fantastic! No question is too stupid and no request is too much; they bend over backwards to make sure you feel right at home! Everything is seamlessly organised from schedules to events and the communication from the team is absolutely second to none! The work itself is super rewarding and the perfect balance - your time is very much your own once all tasks are completed, leaving you with loads of time to explore! The whole volunteer floor is also second to none!

My volunteering experience at the hostel was truly unforgettable! The staff were incredibly welcoming, making me feel right at home, like family. The hostel itself is spotless, super cozy and impeccably maintained. It's more than just a place to stay, it's where you create precious memories and forge genuine connections. Hope to see you soon guys! Prieka!!

This place will be your home away from home! The staff and volunteers here are some of the best people I've met and they made my time in latvia something I'll never forget. The hours and tasks are very easy and there's always someone to help out if needed. You'll never be bored staying here, I was supposed to leave after 1 month and extended for a whole other month because I loved it that much! 10/10 recommend.
