The Experience

Nuestro hostal está cerca de Sierra Madre en México, con paisajes increíbles y cerca de la naturaleza. Necesitamos a una persona que nos pueda apoyar a estar presente cuando la encargada del hotel esta descansando. Debe estar en el hotel después de las 6 de la tarde y los días mas importantes son lunes y jueves. El worldpacker nos ayudaría a entregar llaves a huespedes y mostrarles su cuarto a huespedes que lleguen en este horario.

I stayed at the hostel for one month and I would definitely recommend volunteering here if you are in the area. The town itself is very pretty and it's a good place to connect with the locals and improve your Spanish. The work hours were more than fair and the tasks were not difficult. I had many days off which left me with plenty of time to explore the area. Muchas gracias Armando!

The hostel colorés is a chill place to stay but maybe too chill and boring if you don't have a car or any other project on your own. The tasks are exactly like the description, which is really good. So I would recommend it if you are not alone, if you have a project to work on and/or if you have a car.

The location isn't too busy and during the weekdays it really slows down so it gives you the opportunity to explore around.
