The month I spent at the hostel was one of the best experiences I've ever had. From the moment I arrived I felt very included by both volunteers and staff and was able to settle and feel comfortable immediately. There is good communication by Tim to the volunteers which I really appreciated. Haarlem is a quaint yet vibrant city and I really enjoyed using the volunteer bikes to explore its surroundings. I made some really cool friends during my stay which made it super hard to leave but I will cherish my time at the hostel forever 💕🤘

Amazing experience!! I decided to do this kind of experience because I wanted to improve my english and in netherland I found what I was looking for! Everybody speaks a fluent english. About the experience I have to thank Tim because from the first moment I had arrived at the hostel he was very kind and helpful. Even if you work you have a lot of free time and Haarlem is nice city to visit.

That's really amazing experience for me to stay in there, I met a amazing helpers, coworkers in there . It's hard for me to describe how amazing it is cuz you have to experience of it. the hostel is always a home for me. I' m from Asian, that's my first work experience place in Europe and also it was the first place to make me feel safe, home and also make me feel calm. But I will suggest that let helpers know what exactly hours they have to do cuz sometimes is more than it supposed to be. I think that's it and I LOVE the hostel. Thanks Tim help me to meet my fate, I love you. :)

The experience at the hostel was fantastic, the hostel itself has a unique energy that embraces all people, even if they're an employee, a volunteer, or guests. I had a warm welcome and stay. I could feel at home being way far from my home! Regarding the work, the schedule is fair and the days off are respected, the only shift that is more difficult than the rest is the “night watch”, which takes more working hours, but everything was very clear and we were able to talk and discuss everything with Tim - he's responsible for the volunteers - Thanks Tim! Thanks my group, I miss you!

This was an amazing first time experience, and I wish I could have stayed for longer! Tim was a great communicator, and the hostel has a great social atmosphere and vintage vibes. The work is fair, and enjoyable with other volunteers! The location is perfect to explore a wide variety of activities. The best part of the experience is interacting with the other volunteers and making day trips with them. It's a very safe place, I would see people regularly leaving their belongings in the public areas of the hostel. You can cycle to anywhere, which is very convenient. Overall a great experience!!

It`s this amazing hostel and the staff can only be described as AWESOME, they are very patient with new volunteers/helpers, so friendly and welcoming as well! The other volunteers were amazing and I definitely have made some friendships here that I know I`ll take with me for the rest of my life. The work gets pretty easy as soon as you get the hang of it. When you are not working, you are free to explore the beautiful city of Haarlem with a bike provided by the hostel for free and usually, by the end of the day, volunteers and staff share a wonderful meal together!! So worth the experience!!!

The hostel very grateful for the opportunity to volunteer at “the hostel” in Haarlem, the hostel is one of the most “gezellig” (dutch word for “coziness” & "fun") places I have ever been to. The best part of this volunteering that made this an amazing volunteering experience for me, were all the volunteers and staff members that were always there to help you and cheer you up. Regarding the work, you will be taught how to everything by others, so you are never alone. Thank you to Tim and to all the volunteers for making me feel so at home and welcomed at the hostel!

This experience certainly exceeded my expectations. Haarlem is one of the most amazing cities I've ever visited, super safe and with very friendly, kind and helpful people. The hostel staff is the best I've ever met, everyone is wonderful and I loved working with them. From the beginning I felt very welcome and at home. The work itself is not difficult and is fun to do together with the other volunteers. Do yourself a favor and come here!!!! Special thanks to Tim for being the best host I could ask for. Thank you so much for all the love & attention.
