It's an old hostal but the people are so friendly

I did reception shifts and felt a bit thrown into the cold water with it at first, especially as a non Portuguese speaker, but by time I got more comfortable so it was a big learning for me! At my time I was almost the only non Portuguese speaking volunteer, so I thought it was a very good idea that we shared the daily lunches with another hostels' volunteers which had more English speakers. Everyone was very kind and I made a lot of friends to hang out in and around Faro! Accommodation could have been better in my opinion, everything was quite run-down and wasn't kept clean that well.

I didn't have a good experience at this place, neither did my friend Lívia. The location (Faro) is nice, and the people we met at the hostel were lovely. However, the work and the manager were extremely difficult. The job is very exhausting, especially for those assigned only to cleaning, as there are many rooms and no fixed staff dedicated solely to that task. In other words, all the volunteers are responsible for cleaning the entire hostel. Another issue is that the owner is very impatient and rude. He talks a lot but doesn't listen, and constantly complains about the work we do, no matter

I enjoyed a lot the experience. Faro is a small but beautiful city, with a lot of beaches (a bit far but worth it) and a fun nightlife. The work was easy and calm and the host, Nuno, was great with us. Him and the other volunteers made us feel at home. I highly recommend this experience because I met really special people that I'll never forget and I learned new useful skills.

My experience at the guest house was very good. Nuno is a great host, he has always been very flexible and has always adhered to the right working hours. The job is simple to learn, even for those with no experience; the team is super welcoming and immediately made me feel part of the family. I highly recommend this experience!
