My month at the hostel was wonderful. Olga and Gabo are very responsive hosts and, being locals, have a wealth of information about Budapest that they are excited to share. Work was easy and fun, and Olga and Gabo da good job of choosing other staff members because the other volunteers were warm, hardworking, and kind. Olga was very flexible in helping me work out a modified schedule when my the hostel hours conflicted with a different work commitment, which was a lifesaver. 10/10 recommend!

I had such an amazing time volunteering here! It was my first volunteering experience so I didn't know what to expect, but Olga and Gabor really made me feel like part of a big family. The tasks were easy, the place is really nice and I was always very comfortable. They truly care about your well-being and happiness, and there's plenty of time to explore the city. I absolutely recommend volunteering here. I would've loved to stay longer, and I'll definitely come back!

Hosts Olga and Gabor go above and beyond to ensure not only the well-being of every guest but also that each volunteer has an amazing time during their stay. the hostel is a cozy, family-like hostel nestled in the heart of the city center. Thanks to its small size, cleaning is quick and manageable, and the number of check-ins and check-outs is always reasonable. I highly recommend this experience if you're a relaxed, outgoing person looking to explore one of Europe's most underrated capitals!

The hostel is an amazing hostal to be. It feels so cozy and has a home vibe. Even though it is small, it holds so many messages left by guests and volunteers, along with countless little details and memories all around . It is a place where you can meet a lot of people while also having time for yourself. The location is perfect if you're looking for parties, restaurants, culture, and everything within walking distance. I definitely recommend it—a place to be happy!

I adored my 2 months at the hostel. It truly felt like a second home. Olga and Gabor are a pleasure to work for. They are kind, helpful and very knowledgeable about the city. When I had a medical emergency during my stay, Olga and Gabor were there for me and made sure I was looked after. the hostel really is like a family! The work itself is very simple - general cleaning, reception and guest interaction. The hours are very fair and leave lots of time to explore the city. The location is very central. I cannot recommend the hostel enough and I am already looking forward to returning!
