Absolutely amazing host (Yoka) which made sure I had a great time in Oaxaca and helped me practice my Spanish and learn about Mexico and specifically Oaxacan culture. The hostel is well located and has a social environment where I was able to exchange many stories with people all around the world.

My first volunteer experience, and I couldn't have asked for a better place. A wonderful space with wonderful people. It's been home for a whole month, and it will always feel like home here in Oaxaca. Thanks to Yoka, Mari and Flor for keeping the place running, clean and shining. I'll be back <3

As soon as I arrived at the hostel, I felt right at home. For my first ever hostel volunteer experience, the beds were super comfortable and daily tasks on reception and bar were minimal. Yoka is a fantastic host, taking into account your preferred shifts and days off upon request so you can explore Oaxaca/work remotely. Special shout-out to the other volunteers who made my experience so special during the Día de los Muertos celebrations and to Yoka, Laurens, Jos, Flor and Marie ❤️ A home away from home, I can't wait to return soon!

The hostel was truly an unforgettable experience. I learned new things, got to know Oaxaca more deeply, and made friends both locally and from all over the world. I have so many special memories thanks to the hostel. If you're considering doing a volunteering experience, the hostel is and will always be the best option in Oaxaca—I 100% recommend it. Yoka and Laurens are excellent hosts and are always willing to help! Gracias por todo the hostel
