I had the chance to both live and work at this hostel, and it was truly a great experience. The atmosphere was always welcoming and full of energy. I met so many interesting people from all over the world and made unforgettable memories. I'm really grateful for the time I spent here!

I had a great time at the hostel! The work is definitely worth it for what you get. I did my volunteering as a kitchen porter, and basically, I just needed to make the salad, wash the pans, and keep the tables clean. The work is really easy — the only hard part is learning how to deal with the chef, who I think could often be more gentle. Anyway, Jacob is very nice and helpful, and my experience was really good. The food is also good. I would definitely come back here! Thank you so much! :)
