Rotterdam is the second-largest city in the Netherlands and one of the largest ports in the world. Rotterdam is currently going through a sort of renaissance, with some urban architecture projects, a nightlife, and many summer festivals celebrating the city's multicultural population and identity, such as the Caribbean-inspired "Summer Carnival", the Dance Parade, Rotterdam 666, the Metropolis pop festival and the World Port days.

Vom Workawayer (David) für Host

I arrived at this Hostel at the start of August, my original plan being to stay until October before moving on to another workaway project - fast forward four and a half months and I found myself reluctantly leaving on a train, clutching a photo book of memories and sobbing into a packet of stroop waffles - Rain droplets make tracks on the window,… read more Hurt by Johnny Cash plays on repeat.

This is the best hostel I've stayed in. Danielle & Joyce have created a backpackers haven, it's the perfect mixture of vintage and contemporary - it looks stylish and feels homely. The atmosphere is laid-back and you'll meet plenty of interesting people.

I felt welcome from the day I arrived. To set the scene I pulled into Rotterdam station after a 20 hour Megabus journey, and made my way to the hostel running on 2 hours sleep and egg sandwich from a French petrol station - I was greeted by a cheering crowd of travellers in the back garden (thanks Amin) and quickly offered a glass of wine and a bowl of noodles.

In terms of work, my job was primarily the breakfast and night shift - the former included setting up and replenishing the breakfast/coffee, guiding the guests through it, ensuring the breakfast area was clean, a couple of trips to the laundry and re-stocking the drink fridges.
The main focus of the night shift was to keep watch over the hostel, additional tasks included helping with any late check-ins, solving any problems for the guests, ensuring the communal area was clean and tidy for the next day and washing/folding sheets and guest laundry.

The work was genuinely rewarding and enjoyable, Dan and Joyce are the perfect bosses, they're patient, laid-back and really care about both the staff and guests.

A lot of the time it's hard to drag yourself away from the hostel because there's always something going on. During the summer there was concerts and an open air movie event in the back garden, during the winter there was table tennis, movie nights and a delicious communal meal almost everyday.
But away from the hostel Rotterdam is also a beautiful city, small enough to explore by bike but big enough that you'll always find something to do. It's a must for any architecture enthusiasts (you'll be given daily tours), and there are tons of live music venues and open air events in the summer.

I can't recommend this place highly enough, I miss you all. Dan & Joyce - thanks again for the opportunity, and thanks to all the staff for everything, I'll remember it all - the tours, the selfies, the graaaham crackers, the giraffes, the waves, the milo, the jolenes (ha!), the "so anyway, I was at this really cool party"s, the Adele playlists, the obscure art-house nudity movie nights, the fifi, the kapsalons, the Argentinian hipsters, the countryfield, the blondies, etc etc etc.

Such a place.
