Una experiencia muy enriquecedora, Lautaro y Lara son unas personas muy humildes y agradables, te comunican todo ha detalle desde un inicio, y están para ti sí necesitas algo. También son muy flexibles con los Horarios y te ofrecen hacer diferentes tours gratis. Recomendaría quedarse en este hostel a cualquiera. Muchas gracias por todo muchachos!

El hostel fue mi primer voluntariado y no podría haber sido de otra manera. Lara es una mujer eficiente, rápida, super trabajadora y muy agradable. Desde el primer minuto me atendió super bien, nos mandaba los horarios de la semana para poder organizarnos con tiempo, nos ofrecía muchísimos tours, nos incitaba a crear comunidad con el equipo y siempre esta dispuesta a hablar de sus experiencias para que cojas ideas de cara a tus futuros voluntariados y viajes. Los chicos que trabajan en el hostal son muy agradables, serviciales y te ayudan con todas las dudas que tienes. ✨
