It was the first place I had a language challenge.English is essential for dealing with guests, but it's not that common in the Balkans. The Hostel housekeeper embraces our mother tongue with a translator. It's a great opportunity to sympathise with another culture.The work is a little repetitive, but it's part of a good cleanness. Alex and Nina are always available to help us, as is the team of volunteers. I'd say if you're emotionally mature for this experience, you'll have a lot of fun, especially exploring the city center (which is so close and accessible) and also taking the Day Trip.

Un nueva y diferente experiencia para mi, en la que pude cumplir una meta personal de enfrentarme a nuevos retos. Alex es una persona muy comprensiva y flexible con los voluntarios, Nina un poco extricta con las tareas pero con gran un corazón. todo es cuestión de saber comunicarse con ella, pude compartir un paseo con ella en la Ciudad y me divertí mucho.

This was my first experience and I really enjoyed it! Alex and Nina are very respectful persons, if you need anything, just ask and they will listen :) if you come here, do visit Vitosha Mountain and Plovdiv! This hostel allowed me to meet some amazing people that for sure we'll meet again somewhere in this earth <3

The outdoor patio was such a vibe and the living room was a great gathering space where I got to know a lot of people staying in the hostel. The owner Alex is very kind but hardly around. His mother Nina is who trains and oversees the hostel. She could communicate her needs in a nicer way in my opinion. Everyone's first day training makes them want to leave, forewarning. She's overly particular, even if you do the job right she strives to find something wrong. I also constantly had to defend myself on other peoples mishaps the entire time I worked there and it was so frustrating.

Usually after a couple of days of training, volunteers understand how to do it, but not in your case. You did not follow the instructions and elementary rules for working with guests, cleaning and so on. For example, every time you could not clean up after your meal until you were reminded of this and YOU WERE RUDE at the same time. So we had to remind you of every outstanding task. We have an instruction that everyone must follow, step by step, there is nothing complicated. The other volunteers did an excellent job with all the tasks. I didn't mean to write you a bad review.

The hostel is very cold because there is no heating system, nevertheless by the passing of time it's getting warmer and warmer because of how Nina (manager's mom) makes you feel, she is a hard worker, strict and straight woman, who's always looking for perfection. You as a volunteer, costumer or visitor will never be able to say this place is not clean. It's the cleanest place I have ever been staying in and that's a very good point.

Fue una linda e interesante experiencia. mis compañeras y Nina me ayudaron mucho para entender como funciona el Hostel. 🌱 estrictes con las reglas. Nina muy buena onda, me ayudó en mi proceso de aprender ruso y ella también está aprendiendo inglés, así que lindo intercambio. Alex siempre presente para evacuar cualquier duda que tuviera.

This is my first volunteer with Worldpackers and it's amazing!!! Alex is great, he adapts to what you need and helps you without problem. And the companions that I have had have helped me a lot in everything, especially with the language, which was fairly regular, but they have supported me at all times. The hostel is central, usually we've cooked for each other, and with the guests quite a good deal is created, so there could not be a better atmosphere! I totally recommend it !!!
