Volunteering at the hostel was absolutely wonderful. In exchange for completing simple tasks a few hours a week, I gained such valuable experience and incredible memories. Jorge, Paula and others create a welcoming environment making it easy to be away from home. I actually ended up staying an extra week to close out the hostels working season. I highly recommend volunteering with the hostel.

My stay at the hostel was wonderful. Jorge and Paula are such naturally warm people that you immediately feel at home. The guests are also super open and inspiring, and it's very easy to connect with them. The room was spacious and comfortable. The shifts are in the evening, which gives you lots of time to explore the city and its surroundings. Santiago is a charming and lively city. There are plenty of traditional events that let you embrace Galician culture. Moreover, there are endless possibilities for hikes and excursions outside Santiago. I definitely recommend! ❤️

The hostel is an amazing place. It is an extremely social hostel, and it was so fun being able to talk to travelers from all over the world. The vibes are always good, and Jorge and Paula work hard to ensure everyone is having a good time. They welcomed me into their space and made me feel at home immediately. It is very easy to meet new people and go out for a coffee or beer with them. The accommodations for volunteers are good and pretty private.

I loved my stay at the hostel. The staff were very welcoming and the tasks were quite simple. There was a great atmosphere at the hostel and I had the opportunity to meet travellers from all over the world. Santiago is a great city and the location of the hostel is great, very near the centre.

Santiago is an amazing city and the hostel is the best host in town. The staff is amazing, very understanding and kind. The work is easy and the vibes are chill. The hostel itself is also great with everything you need and a cat (Jueves). To sum it up, it was a wonderful stay and hope to come back soon and do the camino for real.
