I loved my experience at the hostel!! The first week of my stay was a lot busier as we helped open Hikers Paradise but other than that the jobs are pretty straightforward and allow for a lot of free time. The location is also incredible so I got to do loads of hiking in the hostel after work and on my free days. The hostel itself feels like home and has the best atmosphere, the hosts are lovely and it was great working with them all! I hope to come back one day ;) Thank you Lisa, Marian and Mato 🤍

It was a great experience! Tasks were simple and as described: mainly making beds, cleaning, helping guests and reception. We had lots of free time to explore the mountains, even on work days. Lisa was lovely, flexible, and made sure everyone was happy and had hiking time. They couldn't pick me up at the station, but the train stops 2 minutes from the hostel. The nature and mountains r stunning, just keep in mind it's a tiny town with one shop and no nightlife. Thanks Lisa, Mato and Marian!!

I really enjoyed my time in Sherpas. The place feels cozy and just like home. I also helped to reconstruct the other hotel nearby. I also went there during the day to clean. The work hours were respected and the work wasn't hard and it was fun. The nature there is beautiful and I spent most of my free time hiking in the hostel. Thank you Marián, Michal and other volunteers!

I really enjoyed my stay in Tatranská Štrba, because it is perfect for hiking and meeting new people in the hostels. The first week of my stay was more challenging bacause they were just opening a new hostel and there were a lot of things that needed to be done, but in the second week the work didnt take much time and we could catch so many trips. Thank you to Marian, Michal and other volunteers.
