The experience I had at the hostel was incredible! From the beginning, the entire team was very helpful, attentive and friendly. Unfortunately, I had to leave before the end date of my volunteering, but I would definitely stay longer and hope to return another opportunity! Shift schedules are respected and tasks are easy and calm.

I definitely recommend this opportunity. From the day I arrived I was very well received by manager Jin, and the rest of the team is super kind. The activities are varied and can sometimes be a little overwhelming, but if you feel comfortable carrying out a specific one, you can communicate this with the manager and she will help you with it. The room is also only for volunteers, there are two different ones, which means they are never full, I shared a room with a maximum of 3 other girls.

I had a great time staying at the hostel! Kitchen staff both morning and evening shift are lovely, my favourite! Work is not heavy, and having 3 days off during the week is very good to get to visit the hostel in a proper way.

My stay at the hostel was very nice and pleasant. I had the opportunity to learn more about working in a kitchen and all the details you need to take in consideration when doing it. The volunteer's manager, Jin, was very lovely and always available to talk about any problems or schedule changes.

The hostel has been a great experience, and Jin is an amazing manager,always friendly and helpful. Though outside the city center, transport is easy and close, so you can still explore during your free time. You'll mainly work with the housekeeping, dinner, and breakfast teams, all of whom are lovely and welcoming. Shift swaps and scheduling requests are flexible, and Jin does her best to accommodate. Depending on the season, you'll mostly work with children and young people ie school groups etc. Overall I felt well supported and recommend to those wanting to explore the hostel and its suburb

Rincy has been amazing to have around! She’s super hardworking and handles everything from housekeeping to kitchen and reception like a pro. Plus, she’s so nice and warm—it’s been a pleasure working with her. She’s definitely made a big difference here, and we’re really grateful for all her help.

I really enjoyed my stay at the YAH Hostel. The times and work were always respected and the staff was very welcoming and helpful. The hostel is in a safe location, from where you can also quickly reach the city centre and the city's many attractions. I would highly recommend working here as a volunteer and would definitely come back!

My experience in the hostel was incredible, I met amazing people in there who make me feel more than welcome. The tasks were not that hard, even though I was in a period when there was not many customers. They respected every single schedule and they were very flexible if you needed any day off. Jin was an amazing host and I'm so grateful for the opportunity that she gave me:)

This hostel was simply one of the best experiences I've ever had in the hostel. I have nothing but gratitude for the whole team. The working hours were fair and the activities weren't overly tiring. The time off really pays off and you can make the most of your free time. The area where the hostel is located is well-located and very beautiful. There are parks and a view of the Thamisa River right on your doorstep. I would certainly come back to volunteer if I had another chance. Thank you the hostel Thamiside team!
