I had a great time working at the hostel Suits! Everyone was super nice including the owner, other volunteers and guests, and work was good too. Carlos explained everything very well and you could always ask him or Meche if you have any questions or need anything. I had a great time there and can only recommend it to other travelers!

The hostel was my first Worldpackers experience. I stayed 2 weeks and I think I made an amazing start! :) Tasks were easy and Carlos was very flexible with the schedule. During your free time, you can easily explore Cancun. The other volunteers were also super sweet. I worked at the reception and since the hostel is usually quite full, I got to meet so many great people - it was such a fun experience! Meche is super helpful and an amazing person. I'm sure you'll love her too! She's cheerful and wonderful to talk. Everything was great overall!!

I stayed at the hostel Cancun for one month. I was very well received by Carlos and Meche, as well as all the volunteers. We had free time, which allowed us to visit the surrounding area, and Carlos was flexible with my schedule so I could go on excursions. I loved the experience and the opportunity to meet travelers from all over the world!

I wanted to be a volunteer in the hostel because for many times I was a guest here, my favorite hostal. So now that I finish my first period (one month – cus I extend my volunteer) I confirm my beliefs but even it exceeded my own expectations! Thanks Carlos and all team there!

This was by far the best thing that could have happened to us. The Hostel as well as all other employees and volunteers were a blessing. Right on the first day we felt like a family and knew it would be hard to leave after the month. The working hours as well as our free time were perfect scheduled, so we definitely had enough time to explore Cancun and it's surroundings and also go partying whenever we felt like it. We can absolutely recommend that experience for everybody and also long -term wise!!! It was such a pleasure meeting everyone and we can say we will definitely be back!!!
