Volunteering at the hostel was honestly amazing!! The work was fair and well organized, the food was great, and there was lots of free time to explore León. I really loved getting to experience the local culture and ended up making friends for life, even without speaking Spanish. I had some of the wildest party experiences ever and felt safe the whole time. The facilities were clean, and everyone really went out of their way to make sure volunteers had the best time. Thanks for such an unforgettable experience! Let's go volcano boardinggggg 🧡

Come to the hostel if you want to party and explore nature! The workers and volunteers here treat you like family right off the bat. It's ALWAYS a good time and you'll meet people from all around the world. Hours are respected and the food is great. Your job is literally just talk to people majority of the time so it never feels like you're working. If you're extroverted you'll love this volunteer position. You also have lots of down time since most shifts don't start till 6pm. I loved this because I helped me recharge my social battery. I would come back here in a heartbeat. the hostel forever 💛

JUST GO!! I had the best time at the hostel. I met the most wonderful people, from the volunteers and staff to the guests. It was an amazing experience. You're going to meet lots of locals and make so many friendships. the hostel truly is one big family! The work is great, and your job is literally to have fun. I can't recommend it enough. I already want to go back. “Welcome Home” really isn't just their slogan, it's exactly how it feels!
