The staff are wonderful people, reliable, and communicate respectfully. I was one of few non-native Spanish speakers yet I felt welcomed, appreciated, and even helped in improving my Spanish when I made errors. 100% this is well worth your time and the work is fun/not super difficult. The one thing is sometimes the schedule was a little late/some would have to attend meetings on days off, but Dayana is a wonderful manager that was super willing and proactive when I needed scheduling accommodations. If I could I would stay here much longer. To my fellow volunteers as well as all staff thanks!

Love the experience! I had to work at the bar in the evening, so I could visit the city during the day. It was a perfect balance! I immediately felt welcomed by the staff and the other volunteers. It is a small hostel with really familiar wibes. Most importantly, it's in a great and safe position and it's clean. Hope to come back one day :)

I had a great time at the hostel, it's not huge but the vibes are always welcoming and fun. I made great friends with guests and other volunteers, Dayana and the other workers are very helpful and welcoming too. There's a ton to do around the area and the facilities of the hostel are always clean and quite nice. The tasks are very easy and my time was always respected, the only thing that could be improved is communication as the schedules for the week came out around midnight the day before. I would definitely recommend this opportunity if you're looking to spend some time in cdmx

This was a great place to volunteer. If you are looking for a nice, calm place to volunteer at in Mexico City, I'd highly suggest the hostel. The staff is kind, respectful, and fun and the job is easy to understand. It's a great place to meet lots of interesting people. I had a great time here!
