I definitely hope to return to this hostel soon! Ending my volunteering I cried because part of my heart has already stayed there. Julianna, Talita, Robson, Matheus, CC, Cosme, the volunteers and the entire team are wonderful people who I would like to thank so much for being family to me these past weeks. There was always good communication in the team, a clear division of responsibilities for the day and a lot of support. There was always a great and chill atmosphere in the hostel, good work-life balance and a lot of benefits for volunteers! the hostel have also amazing location!

Amazing place with amazing people. Juliana, Roberta, Mylena, Bruno at the hostel are extremely welcoming and fun and have become like a family in Rio ! The location of the hostel is perfect, so close to the hostel beach, and the work is fun and simple; making great caipirinhas for the guests and having fun meeting other travelers. It literally feels like you are not working ! I would recommend anyone to volunteer here, to experience the amazing city of Rio from the inside, learn to make great caipirinhas, and get a new family in the hostel. Muito Obrigado minha familia the hostel <3

Juliana is incredible. She's super welcoming and just a great host and boss and made sure to always check in to see how I was feeling. The work was fairly standard - and by the end of it I learned how to make an awesome caipirinha very efficiently! The majority of the other staff members and about half the guests spoke primarily Spanish, so it is a good place to practice another language! Would definitely recommend a stay here, there are some great opportunities in an awesome location in Rio.

Mi experiencia en el hostel fue increíble. Juliana y Talita son siempre atentas y con la mejor disposición para ayudar. Las horas de trabajo se respetan, el desayuno es delicioso y el ambiente es súper buena onda. Si hubiera podido me quedaría muchísimo tiempo, es un lugar muy chévere, con buena vibra, gente buena onda y se vive con calma 🫶🏻 Sin duda, un lugar al que volvería una y mil veces. ¡Gracias por todo!
