„I arrived in this hostel as a guest and left as a volunteer, taking with me a lot of amazing memories.“ This sentence perfectly describes my experience with this hostel, the staff and especially Swasti herself. From the moment i walked in, I could tell that the atmosphere was amazing. But being a volunteer was even better! It's a lot of fun getting to know all the guests, the city and the people who worked there. Everybody contributed to making this experience truly unforgettable. Swasti was an amazing host for many reasons, especially because she genuinely cares about our well being.

I stayed almost 4 weeks at the hostel in the hostel and I couldn't have asked for a better time! The tasks were easy and I spent a lot of time exploring the city but I also enjoyed all the time I spent at the hostel! The other volunteers and staff made it feel like a home and it was way more special than just staying at a hostel as a guest. Even if it was winter a lot of cool guests came and there was always stuff going on in the city. It was my first volunteer experience and it motivated me to keep traveling like this. the hostel and its people will always stay in my heart! Thank you all❤️‍🩹

Volunteering here was a fantastic experience! Swasty is a great host that welcomes you as a friend and also provides clear direction that makes your job easy. The work itself is very easy and straightforward, hosting breakfast and happy hour in the evening, with your main responsibility just being social and maintaining a nice vibe for the guests. You will have plenty of time to explore the hostel and take the many amazing day trips to the surrounding area. I will miss everyone dearly and highly recommend this experience if you are looking for a chill place to stay and make friends.

Volunteering here for a month was such an amazing way to explore the hostel and other cities near and to meet cool people. The whole the hostel team is super welcoming and sociable and the vibes are great! Work hours are respected and I loved my shifts, they consist of you creating good athmosphere for the guests and socializing with them. If you are a positive, outgoing person and love talking to people this is for you 100%. Nothing outside of agreed was ever expected of me, it all felt fair and well organized. The location is fantastic and the accomodation is also very good!

Thank you for an unforgettable experience! Working at the hostel didn't even feel like work because it was so much fun. I met new people every single day and made new friendships. You have plenty of freetime and the guests were always happy to hang out, chat and join the activities. The hostel itself is super cozy and the location is perfect. I'm going to miss the volunteers and everyone I met and made great memories with so so much. Also Nanette, Jessica Renan were always fun and cool to be around. And ofc Swasty is the best! Super chill and kind. I'm really greatful for her.💕
