Luisa was amazing! Fluent in Spanish and Portuguese, she is also pretty good in English.
Good at cleaning, reception, gathering the guests for an outing. I will miss her hard work for sure!!
Voluntariar en el hostel fue una de mis mejores experiências de voluntariado! Adela, Dave y toda la gente fue muy amable y siempre mi respectaram mucho. Las instalaciones del hostel son muy buenas, con cocina, buenas duchas y la ubicacion es perfecta. los horarios y dias libres son respectados y ademas es posible disfrutar de la ciudad en tus dias libres y en el shift donde lleva los huespedes a hacer tour. Recomendo el hostel a todos!
An excellent, hardworking person, always attentive and willing to help at all times.
Thank you for choosing our hostel to have this experience; we hope to see you soon.
Alex, Óscar & Nala.
Minha experiência no hostel foi incrível. Alex e Oscar são anfitriões muito bons. Ao chegar, Alex me explicou as tarefas detalhamente, sem deixar dúvidas. Os horários foram respeitados e as tarefas são leves. Além disso pude treinar inglês e espanhol o tempo todo. no hostel você se sente em casa! Super recomendo
The hostel is very good, good location close to market, bars and public transport and has great facilities. The hostel has a lot of rooms so there's plenty to do during shift. And everything you need there is in the hostel, a large kitchen, TV room, reading and place to work online, if you need it. I have always been well treated and respected here. Is a good place in San Diego.
