NóIS DE CASA HOSTEL &SUITES
Enjoy a spacious, quiet house, a place to feel at home. Exchange experiences, get information about the city, and share good moments.
We are me and my mother, we love hosting people! Our goal is that everyone in the house feels as comfortable as possible, where relationships are healthy and friendly, always respecting the shared space. Be a good person, we'll connect good energies!! Unfortunately, the evaluation here on Worldpackers does not reflect reality; in the negative reviews you can see inconsistencies, but Worldpackers says they do not violate their policy. We have a 9.7 rating on Booking and 5 stars on Airbnb, I am a Superhost. And even reviews that were not 10 spoke very well of me and my mother. So, I hope you trust statistics and come contribute to this beautiful work we do in this welcoming house!!

About the experience in: Belo Horizonte, Brazil
Colombia
This was my first volunteering experience and it was an incredible and quite enriching experience; I am Colombian and I had the opportunity to travel to this beautiful country and meet extraordinary people. The house is a quiet, warm place and I found all the support I needed with Ed and Mrs. Elena.

My experience at the house was very special and enriching. ❤️ I had the opportunity to meet amazing people, share moments, learn things and experience a very beautiful cultural exchange. The coexistence, the friendship and the affection I received made this experience even more meaningful. I am very grateful for the welcome, for the trust and for everything I lived during these days. It was an experience I will carry with me with great affection and that left fond memories in my heart.

Overall, the experience was okay. Maria Helena is very strict about cleanliness, and the house is really spotless. I understand that she has her standard, but, on my last day, she said that she would ask her son, Ed, the host, not to evaluate me for considering that I was a bad volunteer.
I recognize that I don't have the same standard of cleanliness as her, but I never did tasks with ill will and I always tried to follow the guidelines. I wouldn't come back, but I also don't think it was a bad experience. I believe Ed and Maria Helena could review the dynamic with the volunteers and better align their expectations

Rita, I believe life will teach you many things. In our home, we offer as much as we can to everyone; we welcome people warmly, we only expect a fair exchange. We don't believe we have to renegotiate; the volunteering workload is minimal. We expect commitment, responsibility, and respect. I think asking for a task to be done more than once and, in the end, it being done anyway, is a lack of respect. Cooking and not keeping the kitchen clean is a lack of care for everyone's space.

Volunteering at Nóis de Casa was an incredible experience! The tasks and schedules were always well coordinated and respected. A light routine, I could balance everything. The hostel is well located, with easy access to buses, the subway, supermarkets, and a bakery almost next door – which has a really good cheese bread! The volunteers' room is spacious and the bed is comfortable. Dona Helena's coffee is great and Ed also grills, hehe :). I am immensely grateful to Ed and Dona Helena for all the kindness, the conversations and exchanges we had during this time. I would recommend 100% and would definitely come back! Gratitude for everything!

My experience at Hostel Nós a casa was very good!. I was warmly welcomed and received by everyone. The host was receptive and respected the agreed times and tasks. The tasks were fairly light and the routine was very pleasant.
I highly recommend the hostel for accommodation, a charming, pleasant, and well-organized place, and it is well located in a quiet residential neighborhood near downtown BH. And I would definitely come back again as a volunteer or guest. Gratitude!
