I had an amazing time at the hostel. The team is exceptionally welcoming, kind and caring. I felt completely at home from the moment I arrived. This hostel is truly unique, as you get the opportunity to connect with local people at the nightly events. The volunteers and I had so much fun connecting with guests, helping at events, and learning new skills. The hostel location and facilities are great. Thank you to Rob and Daniel for the opportunity to contribute to the hostel and become a part of the community. I will never forget this wonderful experience, and I hope to return one day!

The hostel was incredibly welcoming and I felt that I never had to leave the hostel since it was so comfortable and had EVERYTHING. The staff were wonderful and made me feel accepted and like part of the family. I was originally supposed to stay 3 weeks and I extended to 4 because I was having such a great time! I will definitely come back again soon, the hostel has my heart!

I had a great time at the hostel. It is a very unique place. as many people who live in Bucharest come to the bar, you'll meet a lot of cool & interesting people (Also good to practice your Romanian!). As a volunteer your role is to support & help the staff member on shift, so everything is clearly explained and there is always someone you can ask if you aren't sure about something. Rob & the staff are all really friendly and helpful. I'll definitely drop by the next time I am in Bucharest!

My stay at the hostel was short but great! I felt welcome from the very first min, the staff is super kind and friendly, as were the few volunteers I had the chance to meet. The shifts involve helping at the bar or doing night shifts, and you get 3 days off. The hostel is beautiful, and the garden and bar are perfect if you want to socialize with new people and join events. During my stay, I had a room to myself, but sometimes you might share it with one other person. They provide the essentials for meals, offer a discount at the bar, and free coffee. Thanks a lot the hostel team <3 you're amazing

Best volunteer experience I've had yet. Such an amazing team. Rob is nothing yet but accommodating and such a great owner. He really cares about not only the place, but his staff as well and it really shows. I became such great friends with my fellow volunteers here and even great friends with locals as well! I could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you Rob, Filippo, Daniel, Monica, Shane, Jo, Catalin, Ala, Felicia, and Issam. I cannot wait to be back. I could not recommend this experience enough!
