My experience at Athens Hawk the hostel was great! - The hostel team and volunteers were all welcoming and friendly. - Tasks are simple and match what was agreed upon: morning and afternoon shifts consist of washing the dishes at the kitchen and evening/night shifts at the bar you also have smaller simple tasks such as getting ice, making change, locking up at the end, etc. - The schedule is sent weekly so you can plan visits to other islands on your days off. - Room is super comfortable, and you can use the gym and all other facilities. - Location is close to metro but in a quiet neighborhood.

Such a good experience!! The social life was 10/10, meeting so many people every day and the rooftop bar made this place alive!!! You can walk to anywhere from the hostel and has great connections:)

My stay at the hostel was very pleasant, the rooms are great and clean, the tasks are simple and I made friends that I will keep for life. I want to give a special thanks to the chefs and Nikiforos who were super kind and helpful.

I am very grateful to have had the hostel host me for my first volunteer experience. The tasks are exactly as listed, simple jobs helping behind the bar or in the breakfast area. Communication regarding what exactly is expected of the volunteers could be a bit better, but I had no issue figuring it out by the end of my first shift. The hostel itself is very lively, an amazing place to meet new people. I've made some lifelong friends on my trip and will definitely be visiting again!

My time at the hostel was amazing, the hostel itself is great, clean, spacious rooms, and well located. The work is chill, and the staff are such lovely people, super friendly, and I'll really miss them. The hostel is very social, and it's easy to make friends with both other volunteers and guests. You also get access to the gym and facilities at the other hostel if you want. On your days off, it's easy to visit the islands too. The city became one of my favorites, I was completely enchanted. I 1000% recommend it!!!
