The hostel was my first volunteer experience, and it was absolutely incredible! San Cris is one of my favorite places I've been and I miss the hostel already. The staff is amazing, the food was great, the work was as described and rarely felt like work, the volunteer group felt like a little family, and I made a lot of really great friends for life. I know I'll be coming back to the hostel in the future, gracias por todo!

My experience at the hostel was wonderful, I already miss the place and the team! The hours are as described, the hostel and volunteer room are so comfortable and well-maintained, the food is amazing, and the staff are the best!! I made great friends during my time there and San Cristobal has to be my favourite part of Mexico so far, which is saying a lot because I loved Mexico! Couldn't recommend more, determined to come back one day! <3

It's a great hostel to volunteer in San Cristobal! The staffs are awesome, guests are nice and the food is great. It's a big and very social hostel and there's lots of things going on and it's fun. I enjoyed the activities, the city is beautiful and the surrounding nature is wonderful.

It was a very good experiencie here, good people to meet and enjoy with. The hostel is very lively, but at the moment it is quieter as it is the low season.

Wow, what a hostel! the hostel really is such a gem and one of the best hostels I've ever stayed at, and it was so lovely to volunteer here. I think the work hours are very fair and the staff always respected when it was the end of my shift. The shifts are organised very well and shared fairly between all the volunteers. The staff were so helpful and welcoming and fun! Work hardly even felt like work because everybody was so kind and lovely to spend time with. The hostel offers a lot (free breakfast and dinner plus daily activities) which made it super social! All my love and thanks!!
