My experience was great! Gustavo is very friendly and made us feel super comfortable at the hostal, plus he served really good meals. We received the weekly work schedule in advance, which really helps with time management, and the working hours are fully respected! The tasks are easygoing: basic cleaning and room organization, setting up the breakfast tables, and doing the dishes. I highly recommend this experience!

I had a wonderful time volunteering at Haikén Hostal. Gustavo is a lovely host, along with his two dogs, Nala and Thor. I shared a room with other volunteers and was grateful for the delicious meals Gustavo provided three times per day. I also had free access to laundry. Expectations were clear and I appreciated receiving my schedule at the start of each week. Morning/afternoon shifts included cleaning guest rooms, bathrooms, common spaces, and the kitchen. Afternoon/evening shifts usually included laundry, checking in guests, and setting up breakfast for the next morning.

Mi experiencia en el hostel fue increíble. Durante el tiempo que estuve allí, todas las tareas fueron bien organizadas y respetadas, así como los plazos y horarios establecidos. Fue una oportunidad hermosa de conectar con otros viajeros, intercambiar historias y practicar un poco más mi español en un ambiente acolhedor y tranquilo. Mi anfitrión es una persona excelente, muy respetuosa, comunicativa y sempre dispuesta a ayudar. Me voy con el corazón lleno de gratitud por todo lo que viví y aprendí aquí. ¡Gracias por esta experiencia tan enriquecedora!

Gus es el mejor jefe de jefes, un gran anfitrión con un gran sentido del humor y excelente cocinero. Se puede llegar acuerdos con él, hay buena comunicación y una buena convivencia. Las actividades y la organización del hostal te permiten salir a conocer los atractivos que tiene Punta Arenas. Recomiendo este hermoso proyecto 10 de 10. Gus, nuevamente muchas gracias por el recibimiento y el apoyo, me sumó demasiado.

Mi estadía en el hostel fue agradable y tranquila. Las tareas estaban claras, y antes de realizarlas, me enseñó cómo hacerlas. Creo que fue más claro que en otra experiencia con voluntarios. Las tres comidas estaban muy ricas y saludables. Gracias Gustavo por darme la oportunidad. Además, la ubicación del hostal está cerca de todo. También hay un parque nacional para hacer trekking con otros voluntarios. Me gustó Punta Arenas.
