Good communication at the start so that I would know what my job would be like, always treated with kindness and respect, my days at the hostel were very satisfying and added a lot of value to the tasks I carried out. The location of the space is wonderful and its entire setup.

Com certeza, o melhor hostel de Ouro Preto. Em momento algum a infraestrutura deixou a desejar. Itallo e Hudson são super atenciosos e nos dão total liberdade de fazer nossas atividades no nosso ritmo. O hostel estava passando por uma fase de reestruturação e por isso os anfitriões não estavam muito presentes, o que dava a liberdade para funcionários tratarem os voluntários de forma menos cordial. Mas isso foi observado pelos anfitriões, que inclusive me deram liberdade de expor esses pontos e se demonstraram interesse em resolver essa questão. Por isso, super indico a experiência!!!

My best experience so far on the platform. Hudson, Itallo and the team are very receptive. The hostel is in a great location. The cleanliness and the comfort of the hostel are differentiating features. I recommend it to all travelers.. Oh and Ouro Preto is sensational.
