Program Details
The position of housekeeper/cleaner is mostly for people that can't be on reception because of an insufficient level of English. Or for those who are just really keen on cleaning!
Activities & Shift
On the general housekeeping shift, you'll be in charge of cleaning the rooms between check-out and check-in (11am/3pm). Fair warning, our hostel is 4 floors without an elevator and we ask you to hoover them during this shift. It can be pretty physical.
On the morning cleaning shift, you'll be in charge of preparing the hostel for the morning, like cleaning the rooms and tidying common areas before everyone wakes up (6am-9pm).
In some instances when we have extra help, we may have you deep clean or help out with other tasks around the building.
Rules
The total of hours/week won't exceed 18h.
We try to be as accommodating as possible with the schedule.
We ask all our volunteers to be helpful and friendly with guests, even when not on shifts! We expect you to be inviting guests on activities, which can be walks, nights out, activities, etc.
