Working at the hostel has been great. In the role of maintenance assistant I learned new useful reparing and maintaining skills such as gardening, changing gutters, applying sillicone, fixing stuff, unclogging and much more. Unexpected events to handle with the House Technician can be fun too. I am thankful to the manager for being clear, straight and doing the best to accomodate the worldpackers in the house, I felt comfortable and well reiceived by the working team at the stay. There are also kitchen, bar and housekeeping shifts with different schedules. I can recommend this host.

I spent two and a half months volunteering at the hostel and it was an incredible experience. The work was fair and the flexible schedule gave me lots of time to explore Berlin. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and I met amazing people who felt like family. Lisa, the host, was super kind and supportive throughout my stay. The hostel was always clean and had a great vibe—like a real home away from home. I'm so grateful for this experience and would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking to volunteer in Berlin.

Best experience I've had with Worldpackers. People are great, leadership is outstanding, the place went beyond my expectations. I'm really thankful for the chance to immerse myself in the local and international culture through the hostel and for all the things I've learned along the way. 10/10

It was a wonderful experience. It's a very beautiful place, with people willing to teach and help you. Everything was very organized and based on respect. I met incredible people with whom we were able to share cultural experiences and enjoy this wonderful city, Berlin. The room was very nice and comfortable, and the food was delicious. Lisa is very kind. I'm so grateful to her for giving us this incredible opportunity. This is my third volunteer placement, and I can assure they truly capture the essence of what volunteering is all about.

This was my first Worldpackers experience but it was absolutely amazing! The shifts were flexible and fun to do! It is a bit further from the city but public transport is very accessible and rides throughout the night as well. What made the trip really worth it were all the people I met at the hostel, the workers and other volunteers were so welcoming and nice, it was very easy to make friends. I would definitely recommend this to other Worldpackers!!
