This was my first time volunteering, and I feel like I got so lucky. From the second I got there the staff at the hostel was warm and welcoming. Henry, Karmín, Jared, and the whole rest of the hostel family made me feel at home. They are always friendly, and they know how to have a good time. The working hours were very clear, and they were flexible if I needed time off. I enjoyed hosting all of the events for the guests. I would definitely recommend this volunteer experience to anyone else. :)

I had an amazing experience volunteering at the hostel! The work was easy (mostly socializing with guests inviting them to activity's and then hosting the activity) and I was still able to explore León! Henry was the best host/manager i've ever had! As well as the other staff! They all made sure l was feeling good & explained tasks I needed to do well. The dorms were clean and comfortable. The other volunteers were easy to get along with. I made so many friends being social in the hostel! Overall I had a great time & would recommend the experience to others! I miss everyone there already!

I had a really great time volunteering at the hostel! From the beginning, I felt very welcome and comfortable. The staff were all super friendly, helpful, and easy to get along with! The work was very relaxed and enjoyable. The main tasks were helping with the social activities at the hostel, such as beach trips, cocktail nights, taco nights, and other activities. Each day was a little different, so it never felt repetitive. Overall, I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a fun volunteering experience. Thank you so much for having me!

We had the pleasure of having Damaris & Alexa with us at the hostel.
From the very beginning, they showed great commitment, responsibility, and a fantastic attitude toward every task. They did an amazing job helping with the daily work, but what really stood out was the positive energy they brought to the hostel.
