Absolute gem of a place owned by some of the greatest people! Shift expectations were clear and super manageable. Thank you the host and the host for taking care of me so well while giving me the opportunity to explore Sydney :)

My best friend and I volunteered here together, and we had the best time. Dynn and Dan were so welcoming and supportive. The atmosphere at the hostel is incredibly relaxed and friendly, making it easy to connect with guests and fellow volunteers. The location is perfect for exploring the area, and the whole experience was filled with laughter, good vibes, and amazing memories. We can't wait to come back!

I had an amazing time volunteering at BatnBall! Dynn and Dan, the hosts, are incredibly welcoming and always ensure you're well taken care of. They're available whenever you need help and regularly check in. The fact that many guests keep extending their stays speaks volumes about the place! The vibe is super chill, like living in a shared apartment with friends. The volunteer tasks are simple and organized, and there's a clear handbook to guide you. If you're considering applying, I highly recommend it! It's a great experience and a wonderful place to be. ✨☺️

My first experience as a volunteer couldn't have been better. The hostel feels like home, super clean, the rooms are comfortable, and the common spaces are really nice, perfect for meeting amazing people. On top of that, having the pub downstairs and a pool is just the best. In two weeks, I made so many friends. The environment and vibe of the host and the host are just amazing. Dan and Dynn, the owners, are great people. Always caring and present for any suggestions or questions we had. I'd definitely come back.
