I LOVE THIS HOSTEL! The staff and owner, Sirce, are absolutely incredible. My world packing experience was focused on working on the hostel's social media and update the website. Sirce gave me full flexibility to create my own schedule, which is perfect for this type of work and was super open to learning so that she can continue the work once I left. The vibe is the hostel is really great, they make you feel like family. <3 Puerto Varas is an awesome town to visit and would recommend this place to anyone.

This was my first experience traveling with Worlspackers. I loved the days I spent at the Vermont hostel, the people working at the hostel are very nice and caring, Sirce is a fantastic person! About the city of Puerto Varas, it is small so in a few days it is possible to know all the cool points that travelers are looking for, I believe that one week is enough.

Solo tengo palabras de agradecimiento para Sirce, Manuel, Elkin y Andrea. Son personas extremadamente divertidas y relajadas para trabajar; aprendí muchísimo sobre cómo funciona un hostal y cómo trabajar de forma dinámica. ¡Voy a extrañar mucho el hostal y a las personas que hicieron que mis días ahí fueran realmente especiales! Gracias por todo, ¡los llevaré por siempre en mi corazón!❤️
