FEMALE Cleaner NEEDED- January 2026

I enjoyed my experience at the hostel. The work was reasonable and as agreed on. I really loved meeting and getting to know the other volunteers. The hosts were flexible, however I think there could have been better communication between the hosts and the volunteers. Overall, it was a great opportunity to meet people from all over and experience London in an affordable way.

I want to thank Laura, Wilsa, Marrie, and Anton for being kind and attentive, but I have some concerns to share. My shared room was really messy, had a bad smell, and the bathroom was terrible. Task distribution was also unbalanced, with one person receiving a short task for the whole day, while others had four. I mentioned this specific case to the supervisor, but nothing changed. This caused workload disparity and some volunteers to feel disheartened. Despite these issues, I had a positive experience and met kind people. I hope that my feedback helps to improve future volunteer experiences.

Hello Keverton,

We are glad to hear that you have a positive experience at Torquay House.

And thank you for your feedback, as we love hearing different points of view from our volunteers to provide a more rewarding experience for the present and future participants. But unfortunately, this time the management team didn't hear any complaints coming from you.

But thanks to your review we decided to create a cleaning rota in the boys' room to keep track of the cleaning. As the volunteers are the ones responsible for maintaining the cleanliness of their rooms.

Regarding the cleaning tasks, all the housekeeping volunteers need to volunteer for 20 per week, normally dived in 5 days, 4h per day, with 2 days off in a row. But in exceptional circumstances, we adapt the timetable to the volunteers' needs. In the case that you mentioned, that volunteer was working more days during the week but fewer hours per day.

Wishing you all the best!

My days at the hostel's house were very nice. I recommend this place because my experience was amazing! the hostel team was attentive, kind and always helped me with my questions (thanks everyone ☺️). The dorm is for women only. the girls who shared a room with me are adorable. In fact, the volunteer boys are adorable too. The tasks are easy. And It's in a great location for exploring the main tourist attractions. Many thanks to the members of the hostel for giving me this experience! See you soon! kind regards, Mariana! 🤗

My experience at the hostel could not have been better!!! One of the best structures I've been through in all my experiences as a Volunteer. The tasks are easy and the Host gives you all the support and equipment you need to perform them. Thanks Aisla, Laura and the entire Staff team for their receptivity. I recommend =)

Working at this hostel for the first time was such a great experience! Everyone was super welcoming and always ready to help. I really enjoyed the meals, the central location, and the kitchen setup. The best part was meeting friends from all over the world and sharing different cultures. I'd totally recommend this place to anyone! 호스텔 일 처음이라 조금 걱정했었는데, 생각보다 쉽고 일하는 시간도 금방 갑니다. 런던 물가 비싼데 여기서 제공하는 밥 꽤 맛있고 양도 많아요. 플랫에 4명이서 묵었는데, 되게 재미있었어요. 무엇보다 빨래가 무료인 게 진짜 이득입니다. 세제만 준비하시면 됩니다. 주변에 큰 공원이 두 개가 있어요. 저는 이곳에서 러닝하는 게 되게 좋은 경험이었어요. 추천합니다!
