The Experience
Night shift area feared, but they are important. Someone who keep the house safe at night, and who can help cleaning so the guests can wake up to a clean nice house are very important. The tasks are house keeping and some reception duties like check ins and outs. Good to learn a language.

Alejandra and i stayed at the hostel! Hostel for over two months and loved the experience. The team were great and we were like one big family. Our role was to ensure guests had a good time - Rio's nightlife and outdoor activities during the day. The location was perfect, in a safe area of Botafogo, with the metro station just a 5 minute walk away. We were also just a couple of blocks from Arnaldo Quintela which is an iconic area of Rio for nightlife. The hostel was just 2 months old when we arrived and it was a pleasure to see it grow. Great experience over and would recommend to anybody!

What a great experience. Short but sweet. Cute little hostel with alot of potential. It's new and I'm exited to see them grow. Staff is great, work is chilled. Will definitely visit again. I wish them only the best for the future.

El hostel se volvió en mi casita y el equipo se volvió una pequeña familia. El hostel es nuevo y se siente tan familiar que varios huéspedes regresan para quedarse más tiempo. Como en todo lugar, puede tener algunos detalles, pero en general todo siempre funciona bien. Los horarios se cumplen y también dependerá de los demás voluntarios y miembros del equipo. Muy agradecida con este lugar tan bonito de Rio de Janeiro

Foi uma experiência INCRÍVEL! O lugar é extremamente organizado e novo. O Anfitrião bem compreensivo e flexível, sempre conversando pra ver o melhor pra todos. A localização é ótima, fica perto de muitos estabelecimentos e de barzinhos pra curtir a noite, fora que é super seguro. O trabalho é muuuito tranquilo, não tem nada pesado. Recomendo a experiência para todos! ❤️
