Female - Housekeeping Volunteer in London

I had a great experience at the hostel and felt very welcomed. The working hours in the morning let me enjoy the city an there's a bus stop right in front of the hostel. The work is easy but a little tiring as there are many tasks. The smell of the accommodation was very strong, but I understand that it was due to the food and there's nothing to be done. The kitchen has all the equipment but there's no basic utensils such as pots, plates and cutlery available, which I believe should be advised in advance. In sum, I loved it! Thank you so much to the reception staff for all the caring:)

Dear Rebeca, thank you for your feedback. I was not aware of it until Camila and you left the residence. So I will order pot and utensils for worldpackers so they have these items to cook. For Jorge, I will speak to him about these concerns as you are the second person to raise to me. Hopefully it will be a positive results for future volunteers. Nevertheless I am pleased that your experience was great and thank you to help us. Regards Aliou

My experience was very positive, Aliou is a good host and they respect the hours of work. I stayed in a single room and it was very good for me, but not for everyone. I met many travellers of other nationalities. I think the kitchen could be a bit more structured with utensils (glasses, plates, cutlery).

Thank you for your feedback and I know that he can be perceived as being tough or strong somehow as he take his job seriously but he has a good side. Nevertheless I will need to talk to him to moderate his behavior toward new comers. I also like that you helped me with Laura Helena and you help keeping Davies Court clean. Take care

The experience at the hostel was good, when considering the accommodation and the location, easily with a bus at the door, they meet the established schedule and are flexible with it. However, we are treated as employees, not as volunteers.

The hostel was the best volunteer job so far. The hours are respected, the tasks are quite easy and the team always help you. I would like to say a special thank you to Barry, Sali and Bruno, amazing and competent people to work together.

Great experience, well organized place, easy work to do, and the structure for the volunteer is very good, almost private room, super clean bathroom, you receive an amount of food per week, only praise.

My experience at the hostel was excellent! The facilities are wonderful, you have a room that you only share with another volunteer, and you have all the comforts. The work is fair, there are 4 hours a day with two days off. The tasks are very varied, there are heavier days and others that are lighter, but they make sure to distribute the tasks among everyone. I would definitely recommend the experience to others!

This was my first ever Worldpackers experience and I was expecting something a little bit different. This doesn't have a hostelvibe. Most of the people are very busy with volunteering, working and studying. So people don't really open up that easily. But besides this fact, I really had a good time. I met some amazing people so I have no regrets coming here. Everything's very well organized, clean room, simple job, nice atmosphere, kind volunteers & management, perfect location (a bus takes you straight to Trafalgar square). Couldn't have asked for a better first experience on Worldpackers!

What to say about my first volunteering in the hostel? It was awesome! The hours were respected, the staff is really friendly and helps you in what you need. In my days off I travelled to near cities. I highly recommend this experience in the hostel, thank you Aliou, Jorge and Bruno for everything :) I really enjoyed my volunteering and hope to come back one day!

The entire staff was very nice and helpful. You never have to work more than it's told in the description and the work is easy. The host is flexible when it comes to the schedule and he tries his best to make everyone's stay amazing. I had a great time in the hostel and would come back(:
