I love volunteering at the hostel I feel like a part of the family, all the staff are super nice and welcoming! The work is fun I got to learn how to make local cocktails. The facilities are great. The food is really good. The atmosphere is a really nice party vibe with lots of activities. I would stay longer if I had more time 🫶

I spent 3 weeks volunteering at the hostel in the hostel and had such a great time. The vibe is super lively and social—there's always something happening. What I appreciated most was the balance between volunteering and free time. I had plenty of opportunities to explore the city, relax, or just hang out with other volunteers and travelers. Liz the reception manager was amazing. The tasks were pretty straightforward and I enjoyed working alongside the reception team and having the opportunity to learn more Spanish.

Had a great time at the hostel working on the bar team. The staff and volunteers at the bar were really friendly and welcoming. My manager Margot was excellent and confirmed my schedule for the duration of my volunteering on arrival. The meals provided were good and the kitchen catered to a vegetarian diet. The hostel is in an excellent location. A great way to experience the hostel!

I loved volunteering at the hostel and it was exactly what I expected from this position. Rocío was very clear about my tasks and the schedule. I mostly worked during the hostel activities in the evening and during the day I had my creative freedom which was super important for me. The team is nice too and I made lots of friends among the other volunteers and staff. The hostel location is top too and I enjoyed exploring the hostel and meeting locals. Don't think twice when applying to this hostel, as you're going to stay even longer than you planned.

Loved the time volunteering at the reception at the hostel in the hostel, it's a great hostel with a perfect location right next to the Kennedy Park and even without volunteering I would have probably booked my stay there. It was a good experience working with the team and I felt welcome from the first day that I got there. The relaxed working atmosphere , the great food you get and the volunteer discounts make this a guaranteed recommendation for me. Applying there was super easy and I got a quick response, especially for my first time volunteering anywhere I was very positively surprised

The hostel is a whole world made of amazing people making their best to give the guests the best experience ever. I worked in the kitchen and the work was quite thought... but I got the possibility to learn a lot about local culture. Overall the experience was excellent.

I had a lot of fun with some amazing volunteers I had the pleasure of meeting on my stay. The hostel is clean, spacious and with everything you need. The location is absolutely amazing. Central, close to everything, but it gets kind of noisy at times. Unfortunately, a couple of the staff there have a passive-aggressive behavior, which does not contribute to a nice environment. It was especially weird that at times some staff felt like if the volunteers were having fun, they were not doing their job. After all, volunteers are also there to enjoy their time. Most people were very nice.

Volunteers are definitely encouraged to enjoy their time here. The exchange is meant to be fun and enriching, but it’s also important to respect the basic rules that help everything run smoothly.

We appreciate your time with us and wish you the best in your future travels.

Definitely loved the team and especially the other volunteers! I would recommend that future volunteers have a basic proficiency in Spanish to communicate with the hostel staff and most of the other volunteers. That being said, I had lots of fun and the team was respectful and accommodating when my phone broke and I got sick :)
