The hostel is the best!!! The staff is welcoming and friendly, the bar space is amazing for relaxing and meeting people, and the location is unbeatable with so many food spots (and Khao San 😂). The hours are well respected, and the accommodation is kept very clean. The bar work is easy to learn and get the hang of, so don't be worried if you don't have previous experience. The center area has a Japanese restaurant and burger store (and now adding a bakery) that we have a discount for! What I'll miss the most are the memories with all the staff and other volunteers I worked with :).

Such a lovely experience! I felt welcomed from the very beginning. It quickly became more than just volunteering; it felt like being part of a wholesome gang squad. I'm so grateful for the memories, the laughter, and all the warmth. The other volunteers made my stay even more special, I couldn't even feel like I was working. It was pure joy! ติดใจมาก…มีอีกแน่นอน! 💛✨
