I am very happy that this was my first experience. The tasks were exactly as stated in the job description and the schedule is flexible. Unfortunately, the problem with bedbugs in the guest rooms is real (I understand that this is a problem in Europe as a whole), but this was the only thing that made me uncomfortable. In general, I felt very welcome and even though I had several questions, the host was always available to help. A special thanks to Thilanka and Hashan for their care and support throughout this month.

I had a great time volunteering in Palermo. A big thank you to the staff for being so kind and welcoming. Palermo is a beautiful city, and the hostel's location made it easy to explore other parts of Sicily. The workload was as described, and I appreciated the grocery money. I definitely recommend it!

The hostel is very good located, close to the central station and the centre, the staff is very welcoming from the beginning and the shifts are very manageable and flexible. It is very easy to meet new people and make friends from a lot of different places. It was my first worldpackers experience and for me time went by very fast so it couldn't have been better :)

It was definitely a good choice. The hostel has a great location (close to the central station, night life and public transport) and shifts are always respected (either housekeeping, reception, bar or kitchen closure). It was an enriching experience, both culturally and personally. Thank you to all of the staff for their warmth and friendliness :)

This was my first Worldpackers experience and I really had a great time! The staff is very welcoming and flexible, the tasks are easy and as described and the location is excellent, close to the centre and nightlife in Palermo. We had a common kitchen with statement ingredients to cook and you are provided with 20€ per week for the meals. The volunteers share a room and it was easy to make friends with the other volunteers and guests,you will quickly feel at home in the hostel. I would recommend this experience if you like big cities, want to practice languages and meet different people :)

I've had so much fun volunteering at the hostel! The staff are welcoming and friendly, the shifts were fun and simple and the hostel and facilities are great. The hostel is in a great location and there's so much to do in Palermo! I feel grateful to have had the opportunity to be here. Massimo is a great boss and has done a lot for me while I've been here! I definitely recommend this place 😊

The hostel is very nice and its location is good, and the cleaning tasks were simple. At reception it was very complicated at times and there was no one to help us solve any problems that might arise. I suggest someone help the volunteer team with the training. The hostel managers are amazing. Thilanka and Hassan are always ready to help you and listen to you if you need anything.

Dear Micaela
reception work is really easy and need only some attentions, for any help as you know, we have a 24h chat where you can ask, you never ask something and now complain when you went away?? maybe the problem was your poor attention and capacity to do simple work that 99% of the volunteers do without problems.

The hostel facilities were great and the tasks were straightforward and did not take long. There was little training in reception and often there wasn't anyone to help with issues. I had a situation where I didn't feel safe with a guest however, again there was no one to help. There were a few problems during my stay due to lack of communication and miscommunication between the team. Thilanka and Hassan, were absolutely amazing and always made sure we were welcomed and happy.

Dear Claudia
we have cameras on common areas to keep safe all the hostel and a chat with the staff 24h to help with any issues, your words are not correct, the only problem was you back several times drunk at deep night and your poor respect for the basic rules of the hostel.
