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.

After my short stay at the hostel Backpackers, it became obvious why people don't ever want to leave. You'll find a super warm and welcoming vibe. The task are easy, fast and simple. Guests come from all over the world. Many who have finished the French Camino and will happily gift you with interesting stories. Jorge is super sweet and everyone has great taste in music. Would definitely recommend. ^_^

Fantastic experience at the hostel Backpackers Hostel! I felt really welcomed. There was the perfect balance of peaceful times, chilling, and exciting activities and parties. I met really nice and warm people; There are all kinds of guests there, pilgrims, backpackers, or people just visiting the city, each with a different history and pearls of wisdom. It is the perfect spot if you love nature too, it has a beautiful garden, and there are mountain tracks close. I totally recommend it! I'll be back there soon!
