I had a nice experience, the hostel has a perfect location right in the heart of the historical center so it's quite easy to walk to all the interesting areas, the hostel is usually perfect and clean, all in the best conditions possible, the dorm is also quite nice and warm (hard to say in a cold city like Quito) sometimes your shift may be confusing but Fher is always up to clear things and explain in detail. It's not a party hostel, not a lot of backpackers either, so if you're a lot into socializing, you may find it boring sometimes, not a lot of activities to get involved either.

Mi experiencia no fue la esperada. Al principio fueron muy amables conmigo. Sin embargo, problemas de comunicación fueron creando inconvenientes en el camino,sentí que no se tomo en cuenta mi opinión en algunas decisiones que me afectaban.La experiencia se reduce a qué tanto puedes hacer en tus horas de trabajo,pero no hay un proceso de acompañamiento ameno en el que las dos partes tengan beneficios de la experiencia de voluntariado. Tuve una caída que me impidió realizar mis tareas con rapidez,trate de que llegáramos a un acuerdo. Decidi retirarme cuando senti que se perdió el respeto

Querida Karen!
La razón principal por la que decidimos prescindir de tu colaboración es porque pusiste en riesgo a nuestro huésped con quien saliste y quien resultó intoxicado con algún tipo de droga y tuvimos que ir a rescatarlo en una estación de policia!
Tuvimos una muy mala experiencia y después de ello suspendimos los voluntariados.
Decidí abstenerme de reportarte para no afectarte pero nos gusta mucho la honestidad y transparencia.
