While the hostel is ok, the job is very demanding, almost to the point of being exploitative. The experience did not work for me, so I left after a few shifts after communicating with the owner. The job is far more work (6-7 hours a day, 5 days a week) than any hostel I've worked in with absolutely no benefits other than a small shared room. The job responsibility was cleaning the entire hostel by yourself every day. Far too much work for a volunteer position, and it seemed to me that no one was happy to work there. Everyone waited out their sentence just to explore the island for cheap.
