I felt welcome all the time and in general it was a great experience, everyone there is so nice (other volunteers and staff) and there's always something going on so you never get bored. I got the chance to meet many different and unique humans which was interesting. Btw the food is the best. Thanks for everything !! Good luck in life :)

I felt very welcomed at the hostel, the staff is really friendly, and made my experience a great one! The working hours are respected and flexible, and the work is not too hard. The only downside is the size of the rooms, they are quite small and there are no windows. But it was a great place to meet friends, they have fun activities every night for guests so you always have what to do, if you want to. The city is amazing, super safe and cozy, with a lot of beautiful places to explore. I super recommend spending some time there!

The hostel's staff is quite friendly and nice, this was actually the best part of my experience. But the accommodations leave a lot to be desired. There is no staff room, so I had to share very small rooms with at least 6 guests. Also there is no common area where you can do some work or relaxing, the only common space in the hostel is the coffee/bar which is usually very busy so it's not worth it. There is no 1 window on the Hostel, so you feel the lack of fresh air!! The ''meal” they offer isn't good at all, it's just like an entrance so you'll be always hungry at the end of it.

The team is very friendly and the cafe puts on events every night where you can meet people outside of the hostel. There are no windows anywhere, so it gets stuffy but also dry because of the AC. I'd wake up coughing and feeling suffocated. The guests are weird and dirty and made me a bit uncomfortable. Without windows, the bathrooms fill with chemical fumes from cleaning and it feels toxic. One chemical burned our eyes and made it harder to breathe. Good breakfast but only available after 11 & lunch around 3:30-5 (you won't know). Shifts are 12-3 and either 7:30-8:30 or 21:30-22:30.

All the team from TGS is so friendly, they give me a nice welcome. The hostel is a social point in the city so you can meet a lot of people, they have diferents activities everyday. The tasks are not difficult and they respect the times, so is ok. The breakfasts here are awesome, the lunch always late so if you have an schedule to eat on time i recommend to eat outside, also you have discount in food and drinks so you can save a lot of money in food. I was in a female room so was ok, but you need to know that the rooms and the hostel don't have ANY WINDOWS :s they just have AC. Good experience

The entire team at the hostel was friendly and welcoming, questions were easy to ask and readily answered. the team, hostel staff and volunteers alike, were quite helpful in showing/telling me things to do around the city and teaching me anything I asked, which mostly revolved around language. this hostel has a very fun vibe and you should definitely consider staying here.

This was my first experience traveling outside of my country but it was wonderful. The team was super welcoming, friendly and helpful and the hostel is a nice and cozy place to stay, the location is close to the center of the city and there's many things to do in just a walking distance. I really enjoyed my stay and wish to come back in the future!
