I recommend!💯 It has been the first destination of a 3 months trip with my friend and honestly, we couldnt ask for a better place to start our experience. The host made us feel comfortable, he was available if we needed something, he told us about the city (the places, the people) and everything. Other volunteers were very friendly and kind. The place itself is a big WOW! Its comfy, warm, clean and so beautiful. Also, the little city of Montañita is priceless. We really loved the community! Its a perfect place to enjoy any kind of things and make new friends! 5 stars for Mike, thanks again 😎

The hostel is a very beautiful and cozy place, the cleaning tasks are really simple, Mike is an excellent person, I never had any problems with him, unfortunately I had to leave because I did not agree with how the volunteers' schedules were managed since some volunteers They had more privileges than us, I mentioned this to the host and he will take actions to improve for future volunteers. We hope and so be it. Thanks Mike for listening to our recommendations.

Dear Alejandra,

I was surprised to learn about your concerns, especially since you brought them up on the day of your early departure. Previously, there was no indication that you perceived other volunteers receiving preferential treatment, and it remains unclear which privileges you are specifically referring to. It's worth noting that both you and Juan were provided with funds for your food during your stay. Additionally, it's essential to highlight that you left early without settling the remaining balance.

Best regards,
