Definitely a great crew overall. They were going through a bit of a transition period with staff & organizational structure, so I'll give them a pass for now on that. I was never met with any work beyond expectations, but I will say that working a 7.5 hour shift over night can be pretty brutal no matter how jacked up your sleep schedule is😂

This is one of the best places I've volunteered at. Shanice, Dean and the team have been welcoming since day one. The management is efficient and easy to work with. The work isn't tough, the hours are reasonable and the facilities here are very good. I've met so many great people from different countries and it's been a great experience overall! Highly recommended :)

I had a really good experience volunteering here. The hostel has a welcoming atmosphere and the staff were always kind and supportive. The tasks were clear and manageable, and I also learned a lot about working in a hostel environment. The location was convenient, and I got to meet amazing travelers from all over the world. It was a great opportunity not only to contribute but also to grow personally and make new friends!!

It's strange to write this as a volunteer who decided to stay! Love the hostel team. I felt welcomed right away, the beds are comfortable, and the management is really sound. The hostel is close to public transit and plenty of cheap and delicious food options nearby. Unfortunately, the poverty and addiction in the surrounding area is apparent, but this did not significantly affect my stay. I think the work asked in exchange for accommodation is very fair. The nature close by is lovely, especially the beach and Tambourine Mountain. This place changed my life. 1000/10 reccomend.
