My the hostel experience was indescribable! It was my best volunteering experience to date. Schedules are respected, tasks are simple, and the Staff group is simply incredible, especially Belu, Bruno, Agus, Luca, Luana and Jero! I really felt at home! I highly recommend

My time in the hostel was amazing, since the beginning I felt so welcome by the owners Belu and Mati, and of course by the amazing staff that works there, thank you! The tasks are very simple and I always had fun while working, you can always talk to Belu about the shifts for you to find together what is best for both, the hostel and Mendoza are BEAUTIFUL, this is an amazing place to get to know this incredible city and to meet people from all over the world and also locals (amazing staff from the hostel ❤️)

It was my first volunteering experience, and it was wonderful. All of the staff and the volunteers were great and always very friendly. Belen was very considerate in regards of shifts and days off when needed to do some activities, she recommended me a hostel when I went to San Rafael and it was great! I would recommend this volunteer to everyone who would like to know Mendoza and the Mountains.

The hostel was my first experience as a volunteer and I would recommend it to anyone!! The staff is welcoming and the place is beautiful. The work is mainly helping with cleaning and sometimes random tasks. But overall is very chill and is a great for first time volunteers! You get to meet lots of new people all the time. I had an amazing experience I won't forget the people I met there, thank you to everyone that made my experience so memorable!!
