I enjoyed my time at the hostel very much. In stead of 1 week, I stayed three! The people are nice, and the work is not very hard. I did the nightshift at the reception, including some cleaning tasks. The location is very well located, and the communication is clear! I didn't regret my time at the hostel, thanks for the very nice experience!!

I stayed for one month at the B&B of Ernesto and Sandra. What a wonderful people they are! They treath me as a family member, and I couldn't wish for a better and warmer place to stay! The work was very easy, cleaning the pool, help in the garden and sometimes the kitchen. The meals where perfect, you never get hungry here! There was enough time … read more
