I loved this volunteer, the people here are amazing, kind, and welcoming. The volunteers, we are super international, we get to learn each culture a little more and have a good time here. The hostel is close to the center, but also is a quiet neighbourhood so you can enjoy more the british life. Super recommend ❤️

I really enjoyed my stay at the hostel! It's in a great location in a beautiful, quiet area. The work is not difficult und you still have a lot of time to explore the hostel. I stayed in a room with other volunteers and got breakfast as well. The team are all very helpful and kind and the atmosphere with the other volunteers was always good. It's a great place to meet people from all over the world! I definitely recommend volunteering here! Thanks everyone:)

The hostel is a great place to stay in the hostel. The location is excellent and makes it easy to get anywhere in the city. The staff are amazing people, and I had the chance to meet people from all over the world. Some tasks can get quite busy at times, but there's a good balance, and you still have plenty of free time to explore the hostel. I highly recommend it! I made friends that I'll carry with me forever. I love you guys 🫶🏻
