While the hostel is ok, the job is very demanding, almost to the point of being exploitative. The experience did not work for me, so I left after a few shifts after communicating with the owner. The job is far more work (6-7 hours a day, 5 days a week) than any hostel I've worked in with absolutely no benefits other than a small shared room. The job responsibility was cleaning the entire hostel by yourself every day. Far too much work for a volunteer position, and it seemed to me that no one was happy to work there. Everyone waited out their sentence just to explore the island for cheap.

Muchas gracias Brinn!! Teniendo en cuenta que fuiste irresponsable desde el primer momento y ahora nos haces quedar mal a nosotros. ¿Por que eso no lo estas escribiendo? ¿Recuerdas que habías confirmado por 2 meses pero ni bien llegaste sin siquiera saber que tareas tendrías que hacer dijiste que podías quedarte solo 2 semanas? Y todo esto sin previo aviso tampoco simplemente lo has hecho lo cual ha dejado a otras personas que si tenían ganas de ser parte del proyecto sin un lugar. Saludos (:

I really love this experience working in such a great, energetic environment. I had the pleasure to meet so many different fun individuals. The team works in a good harmony so that I really felt welcome since the beginning. It's a place where you can be yourself. Besides that I was doing my best to ensure every client got the most pleasant stay. Good Communication with the guests was very important to me. I was helping as good as I can using all my 5 languages in order to communicate with guests of different nationalities as well helping my team members with german guests. Beautiful place:)

I had a good time as a volunteer and am very thankful for the experiences I made and the people I met. Working at the hostel was in general a good experience. The agreed upon hours are respected and at times the manager would even cover a shift so that we could do something together as the volunteers. There are two hostels and there are three volunteers in each one taking turns with the shifts. Just know that volunteering at this location, you will always be working alone and the work is almost exclusively cleaning, but you will definitely be practicing a lot of Spanish.

For being my first volunteer was a very experience, I met wonderful people who taught me to live better and believe in my dreams. I practiced my spanish and english although at the beginning it was not easy to adapt. Thank uu!

What an Experience! Giovanni is an absolutely fantastic person, who truly treats us like family. He took great care of the volunteers and his love for his hostel is beautiful. I 100% recommend this place as I already miss it (and I left yesterday). Thank you for everything!

The owner and the workers are extremely welcoming and friendly people, I miss them already! The work is very fair and the environment they create makes the work fun. Although it wasn't too busy in the hostel when I was there it was still a great place to be and always someone to talk to and have some fun with :)

It was my first time volunteering and the experience was fantastic. In this hostel you feel as if you were at home, I had never felt that in the other ones where I have been. The crew is very accessible and there is always an atmosphere of confidentiality. Working hours and the agreement of what they offer are respected. The city of the hostel is perfect if you are looking for a quiet place for a while, everything is close to the Hostel and if you like walking you can arive wherever you want by feet 🤠✨

Estuve un poco más de un mes voluntariando en este hostel y fue una muy buena experiencia. Ezequiel siempre fue claro y cumplió con lo acordado: horarios, días y tareas bien organizadas. Se armó un grupo de voluntarios con muy buena onda y un ambiente cómodo para el día a día. Además, el voluntariado deja mucho tiempo libre, ideal para recorrer la isla y conocer lugares increíbles. Me voy con muy buenos recuerdos.

Mi primera experiencia viajando sola tan lejos, y solo puedo agradecerle a Ezequiel por hacerme sentir protegida y como parte de su familia en todo momento. Su apoyo y dedicación hicieron que esta aventura fuera aún más especial. Súper recomendado el voluntariado en el hostel. Sin duda volveré. <3
