Wonderful experience in a really lovely clean friendly hostel. Christine was kind supportive & clear in her instructions and went out of her way to ensure that we as Worldpackers were OK at all times. We felt proud of the hostel and motivated in our work because of this. Met great folk from all over the world and all ages - very inclusive.

This is an amazing place to go. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. Whether it's your first time doing Worldpackers or you've done a few I would definitely recommend going here. There are some great beaches and hikes to do while you're there. I'll definitely be back in the future. Thank you Christine for everything!

I had a wonderful month at Hub Hostel. Christine is an incredible host, always available and friendly. The work is easy and fair and always in a good mood. It's a fascinating place to enjoy Scottish nature, with many breathtaking beaches and culture. It's the ideal place if you want to experience peaceful moments, almost out of time.

My first Worldpackers experience and what an absolute magnificent one! Christine and her family are some of the nicest and most genuine people I've ever met. The work was easy, without any pressure and I also learned a lot. The accomodation was so nice and cozy and I also loved the bed in the treehouse. You'll meet loads of lovely people. Everybody, including locals and Hostel guests, is very open and welcoming to an extent that is not too common in most other parts of the world, but definitely should be. Even after just a few weeks I felt like leaving a newly won family.

Christine and her family are lovely and immediately made me feel welcomed, the work is very simple and you get lots of opportunities to socialize with guests from all over the world! The accommodation is cozy and well equipped, and the island is beautiful! I've made so many cherished memories and life long friends in Stornoway. Working at the hostel felt like joining a big family, thank you Christine for everything 🩷 Can't wait to come back someday
