I spent a wonderful month in Lisbon and I highly recommend it! The hostel was in perfect location: central, safe and close to the city's main attractions, which allowed me to enjoy both the highlights and more authentic spots. The people I met were kind and welcoming. This experience gave me the chance to connect with locals and other travelers, learn about new cultures and share moments. The team was amazing which made the social aspects even better. Overall it was an incredible experience that help me grow, practice English and truly enjoy lisbon. I definitely recommend the hostel!!

This was my first Worldpackers experience and I couldn't recommend this work exchange enough!! I had so much fun during my time in Lisbon, all thanks to João and the other volunteers. The work is easy, and you have plenty of time to explore Portugal! João is super accommodating and makes you feel very welcomed. I would come back again! 😊

I loved my stay in this hostel! It had a great location in Lisbon, the hours were exactly what it says they will be and the job is very easy and chill to do. It left me a lot of free time to get to know Lisbon. Joao always replies to the messages and the communication and organization is in general very good. The permanent staff of the hostel is very nice as well. The other volunteers and environment overall was great! I would definitely recommend this place :)

I've had a wonderful experience here! The other volunteers were amazing and funny and we had a great time together! The hostel is in the most touristic part of Lisbon so is very easy to move and go exploring. About the tasks and the hours everything was great, there's a very good organisation and you can always ask if you have a question so I couldn't recommend more to come here, thank you to all the team and Joao :)

I truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. The place felt like home very quickly, and I had an amazing time with the other girls :) The work itself was really chill and fun, leaving plenty of time to do other things, like exploring Lisbon - especially since the hostel is located right in the city centre. Also, João was always there for us and made sure we had everything we needed. All in all, I'm really grateful for the time I spent at the hostel and would recommend it to anyone!
