The hostel is located in a nice area. It's a short walking distance to the grocery store. There's an area not far from the hostel where you can ride your bike, jog and exercise. My experience at the hostel was good! Every list of duties I was giving were easy and God bless Dona Sonia for not over working me. I fixed a few things here and there. I got along with the volunteers and the guess. Sometimes I went out with them to restaurants and night clubs. I had an issue when my cash being stolen from my bag and I reported to the owner (Bruno). Aside from that my time at the hostel has been good.

The team at the hostel are very nice and friendly. I stayed 2 weeks and chose to have the night shift which was pretty quiet and there's always someone to help you out in case needed. I had my days off as agreed beforehand. It's near the hostel Stadium and you have the supermarkets close by. It's mostly quiet, generally clean but needs some renovation. They turn on the AC together with the fan all night in the dorm so bring some warm stuff in case you get cold plus some repellent and detergent to wash your clothes. Im very thankful for the opportunity for having stayed with them!

A experiência no hostel foi extremamente boa. Eu cheguei próximo ao final da libertadores e o Hostel fica basicamente no canto do hostel, então tinham muitos hóspedes para ir pro jogo, depois tiveram shows e mais hospedes. Isso cria um clima no ambiente de animosidade e diversão porque você se contagia com a energia do local, era comum por exemplo, o hostel está cheio. Também tem muitos hospedes fixos, o que prova que é um bom local. Sobre o trabalho, acredito ter sido um dos mais tranquilos que já fiz em toda a minha trajetória, foi realmente gratificante. Irei retornar em dezembr

Quando cheguei no hostel, de cara ja notei um espaço muito legal tem até saco de pancada, aulas de capoeira e jiu jitsu, achei engraçado o Bruno pergunta o que mais faltava para melhorar rsrs o quarto tem um espaço confortavel e uma area comum espaçosa e dinamica. Fui muito bem recebido, o Bruno e a Helloá São pessoas que realmente dão sentido as palavras empatia e humanização. Sou grato por viver isso e para mim, estar aqui me trouxe uma senssação de segurança e tranquilidade.

Minha experiência foi sensacional, foi o meu primeiro voluntariado e não poderia ter escolhido um lugar melhor, sem dúvidas a experiência foi excelente por conta dos outros voluntários (que agora já são funcionários fixos do local ) no qual me receberam muito bem, me senti extremamente em casa embora as instalações do Hostel sejam bem humildes. O Bruno e a Eloa que são os donos são extremamente flexíveis e as tarefas a serem realizadas são bem tranquilas, única coisa que poderia ser um pouquinho melhor é a comunicação com o voluntário, mas de resto foi sensacional, recomendo muito o rj !!!!
