Help out at a comfortable and homey hostel in Sofia, Bulgaria

A very quiet hostel to work at! Each shift has allocated cleaning tasks, but once those are done you can hang out in the reception area. It's an older building and has its quirks, but is clean and comfortable. Very close to the metro that makes it easy to see Sofia on your time off.

Since it was my first experience, it was good. You can feel very welcome and respected. Asya one of the guest she's always there and you can have fun with her and also helping her cook, she's like the grandma of the hostel. It feels very familiar and you all the time end up having a good relationship with all the volunteers and also with Bartol the supervisor:) you have a lot of free time to do whatever you want around the city or at the hostel. I think if you need to rest a little from all your tiring trips, this is a great option to consider.

My experience at the hostel was great! The volunteers' schedules are well divided and the work is not difficult. The hostel is not in the center of Sofia, but it is easy to get there by metro (there is a station nearby, a 5-minute walk away). They provide basic food items such as bread, eggs, lentils, milk, oats, tea, coffee, etc. If you want something extra, you can buy it at a market close to the hostel. My experience was very peaceful. I recommend! And I leave a special hug for Asya <3

It was a great experience. The tasks are easy and the hours and shifts are very flexible. Bartel and Alex are always available and ready to help. The hostel is very quiet, it is close to the metro station and supermarket. You will have plenty of time to discover and enjoy the city, as well as the nearby mountains. I met great guests and volunteers that became real friends. And I had the pleasure of meeting Asya (the old lady that many people talk about here). She is the sweetest and strongest person I have met in my life and I had many special moments with her that I will remember forever.

Ten the hostel is my first WP experience. This is a good place to get rest and alone time, but not socialize,party or do activities. You have PLENTY of time to visit Sofia during time off. The tasks were VERY simple, but the training at the beginning lacks a lot of communication, so you learn what you should've done or done wrong by making mistakes. You also have this long term guest Asya that often requires your help to cook and she feeds you in exchange, careful though, she can be stubborn/rude with the way she asks for help or if you refuse to help/eat her food.DM if you have questions.

Fue mi primer voluntariado, el hostal es muy tranquilo y está un poco lejos del centro pero hay un metro cerca. El trabajo era sencillo, terminas de limpiar en dos horas máximo y luego te tienes que quedar en recepción donde no hay mucha actividad. Una cosa que no me gusto fue la poca comunicación que hay con los voluntarios sobre temas del hostal. Me costó adaptarme al principio pero al final le pille el truco, hay que ser espabilado y hacerlo a tu manera. Lo bueno es que había comida para voluntarios, alimentos básicos como pasta o leche. Fue una experiencia bonita y la disfruté mucho.

It's the place for who's needing more alone time for a while. I enjoyed my stay a lot; after a long long journey, I took a necessary rest here. If you're more of a partying person who loves a lot of socialising time & various events, I'm sure there're other places in Sofia for you. The hostel is cheap and accepts guests from any background, sometimes you'll need the patience to deal with everything. But all the tasks are doable, Bartel and Alex are very friendly, and, the most important one, there are cats!

My time at the hostel was very chill. The work was as described, but I didn't receive much training and the communication could have been better. It's outside of the city center for feels more residential and isolated. It was a big change of pace. It's not a social hostel so you have a lot of time by yourself.

I had a nice time at the hostel. The work is easy and you are trusted by Alex and Bartel to do it. It's very quiet, but I didn't mind. And the room for the volunteers was always warm. The grandmother of the hostel, Asya is very sweet and takes care of everyone. It's a good place if you're looking for a chill volunteer experience.

My experience at the hostel was very good! The volunteer schedules are well divided and the work is not difficult. The location is not the best, close to the hostel we have a small local shop but the center is 2 metro stations away (which closes at 11pm), the station is a the hostel-minute walk from the hostel. It's a quiet place, if you're looking for a party hostel this isn't the place. The food provided is not always sufficient, sometimes it is necessary to buy some items at the market. I recommend the position, I made good friends here!
