Housekeeping/Canteen/Kitchen help in London

The hostel was my first volunteering experience and it was great! The place is more like a guest house, so there isn't a common area and you'll talk more to the other volunteers. That said, my tasks were easy and I didn't have any trouble with that. The receptionists, assist manager and manager were great with me whenever I had some doubt or needed something. The guest are fine in general. There are some that see you as their employee at first, but after some time they smooth 😅 others are extremely kind. I ended up actually meeting and having insightful conversations with a few of them.

I think that this place is the best option to stay in London. I enjoy the job here, easy and not tiring. The food provided by Eugenio and Gigi was good :) Happy to met good person here.

Good experience overall. I found a good team that made a difference. A bit tiring doing the same job for a month but serving dinner to the residents I had no complaints (good job seeing everyone). The room was comfortable, meals included which is a real plus in London! I would like to thank all the hostel team for your welcome and this experience!

As mentioned in a previous review, the place is not a typical backpackers hostel but rather has a lot of long term residents. As such, there are a few long term guests who are disrespectful to both the volunteers and the facilities. One of the male volunteers dorms seems to have a long standing issue with bed bugs which is slightly unsettling. However, Laurent and the team are lovely and it is in a perfect location to be able to see everything. Overall it was a good first experience and I am grateful for my time at the hostel.

I have mixed feelings about it. I was cleaning the showers so I got the best function, I did not had to deal with the rude guests or to talk much. The things are not clear. Laurent and Chaquita are okay at first, but they are very strict, sometimes you feel like you are owing them something and that is not an exchange, one time I heard that they were talking about me, that I haven't worked in my shift, which was a lie, just because I hadn't talked to them in the morning, and I didn't even knew I had to do it. I think I got it easy, I heard a lot of rumours of them being rude to the volunteers

I was feeling alone because there is no sharing place and anybody speak to each other so the mood its a bit boring and its very difficult to have fun there. Also, i slept in sheets where there were fleas that bit me at night... However the food is good, its nice to have a gym place inside the hostel.

My experience in this volunteer was cool, I met several volunteers from this hostel and from another hostel that I will take for life. The work is not difficult and I didn't have any problems with any other volunteer, guest or manager, the manager was always polite and clear with my tasks, but that's my experience. Some residents are ignorant and disrespectful and treat you badly. As a point of improvement, I think that better training should be given, since it is the volunteers who pass the training on to each other and sometimes end up having divergent information.

It's located in a beautiful area, close to subway stations and a park, the facilities are very comfortable

The hostel is great! Good location and plentiful food. I just think that there was not a good training for the new volunteers, I got lost several times with the activities because sometimes a person told me to do the job in a certain way and days later it was other... One more thing that I didn't like at the hostel were some guests and 2 night porters who are extremely rude and troublesome. Anyway, the experience was very good and I recommend it.
