The house is very beautiful, the room is comfortable. Blois is a small city, but it's easy to take a train and travel around. The job is easy to learn. Alexander and Nicolas are very nice guys. There is a lovely kind dog, Sidarta. It's a nice place to stay, to improve English. Thank you guys for receive me there. 🌻

Nicolas and Alexander were wonderful hosts—warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable about the city of Blois. They helped me immerse myself into the local community, which made my experience truly special. The work was fair and manageable, and I appreciated the freedom they gave me to explore on my own. Weekends were a highlight, as they introduced me to other parts of France through outings and events. I would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone looking to discover the beauty of France from a countryside perspective. Very grateful for this experience!

My experience at the guest house was very good. Nicolas and Alexander are warm and welcoming people. Bebê, the main host, became a great friend and daily companion. The work is easygoing. I came for a month and a half and extended my stay to almost three months. Without a doubt, I'd love to return in the future.

The guest house is a remarkable place, and it was a privilege to volunteer there. Nicolas and Alexander have poured their hearts into crafting an inviting and beautiful space for their guests, making it an honor to be part of that journey and work there. Nicolas is a welcoming host who encourages you to immerse yourself in the community, whether that be through events or getting together with locals. My experience met the expectations that Nicolas set at the beginning of my stay (and on the volunteer description). Best wishes and continued success to Nicolas, Alexander, and Siddhartha!

It was a very good time at the guest house. The tasks are not heavy and are clearly communicated before the stay. The city is beautiful and there is much to see and do (including walking with Sidharta, the king of the house). I was able to practice my English with a native and a non-native person, which was very good for learning. Thanks to Alexander and Nico for their good disposition, it was a very nice experience.
