The experience

Volunteers may be asked to assist with various tasks including breakfast service, cleaning, bartending, cooking, and some maintenance. During your stay, you'll be accommodated in one of our hotel rooms—converted from recycled shipping containers—shared with another volunteer. Each room includes a private bathroom and kitchen for your convenience. We kindly ask our volunteers to take turns covering the night shift, that is staying with the phone.

Activities & Shift

The weekly schedule depends on what’s happening at the hotel—such as occupancy levels, events, and other activities. We create a schedule every week so that everyone knows what their shifts will look like in advance.

Morning shifts usually involve helping with breakfast and cleaning, while afternoon shifts typically include assisting in the kitchen or bar.

The night shift mainly consists of keeping the hotel phone with you in case of emergencies—there’s no need to be at the reception or perform any other duties during that time.

Rules

House Rules:

No smoking inside the rooms.

No drugs are allowed anywhere on the hotel property.

Visitors are not permitted in the rooms. You’re welcome to meet friends at the bar during its opening hours.

Please keep noise to a minimum after 10:00 PM to respect everyone’s rest.

A valid ID and immigration document showing you're in the country on a tourist visa are required. If you're not yet in the country, we’ll request these documents upon arrival.

Please return the room in the same clean and tidy condition as it was given to you.
