I wanna say a big thank you to the whole, always super nice team from this hostel! I had a great time in Rijeka and it was a beautiful way to end this years summer. There was not much work to do, so i had plenty of time to just relax and enjoy my time in croatia. The work in the morning with Dunja was easy to understand, never too much and i… read more

I stayed for two weeks and it was really good. The work wasn't too bad and a lot of free time. The breakfast isn't bad and they have occasional dinner which is better. They were always very helpful. Anytime I needed any food from the kitchen they were always ready to grab something for me. The location is also really good with one of the best… read more

I LOVED volunteering at this charming hostel! I stayed for 2 months in September and October of 2023. The staff are so kind, always helping me out when I needed it, and were very flexible about my days off we determined together in advance. The women who work here are fantastic people. I was not staying during tourist season, so there weren’t that… read more

I really enjoyed the two weeks I spent here in July. Staff were welcoming and friendly and the work wasn't too demanding so lots of free time to explore the area. I loved working with Sandra and she taught me lots about the culture and history of the area- also loads of great recommendations of how to spend my time in Croatia! Even got to learn a… read more

We had a good experience at the hostel in August. All staff are very friendly and helpful.
We work five days a week around 3-4 hours a day in the morning. Delicious dinner when they hold big groups.
We have our own room that is very good. The only concern is the noise from the container terminal. For us, it is no problem.

Had a great experience volunteering at the hostel ! All the women who work at the hostel were so lovely and welcoming! Work was easy, you just work mornings and then had the rest of the day to yourself and there are beautiful beaches very close to spend your free time at!

It was so nice to volunteer at this cute hostel. The job was mostly about cleaning the rooms and it was quite simple, it only got a little demanding when big groups were leaving the place and every room had to be fixed, but while I was there in June 2023 it wasn't too crowded so I usually worked for about 3 hours per day only. They offered me a… read more

We loved having Matias in our hostel . He was really sweet and kind, he did all the tasks without any problem, easy to communicate with and we loved having him around. He did all his tasks quickly and precisely, nothing was too hard for him. We wouldn't hesitate to accommodate him again. We strongly recommend him

I stayed for 3 weeks in this incredible hostel and I was so glad to spent my first volunteering there!

Such a nice place! I miss it. I worked there just for a short time, and I would have loved to stay longer. I worked mostly with cleaning the rooms, and had a lot of spare time. But the best thing was to get to know Dunja and Jana. They work really hard, and do it with a lot of humor and love:)) Inspiring women!
