Working at the guest house was my first experience as a Workawayer, and I couldn't imagine a better start to my adventure! Thanks to the kind people who work there and the relaxed and peaceful atmosphere at the hostel, I felt very welcome. Even though I only speak beginner Spanish, it wasn't a problem because the whole team was very patient and understanding. The workload isn't very heavy and the hostel is in a great location, so working there really gives you the opportunity to get to know the city.

This was my first worldpackers volunteer experience and I am very thankful for how welcoming the staff were! Especially the receptionists, they were very flexible with swapping shifts or staying late if needed so that the volunteers could have the best possible experience in Valparaiso. I was here for a month and the expected tasks were very reasonable and simple. They didn't require too many hours for work so I had most of the daytime free to explore Valparaiso and surrounding cities. the guest house is a very quiet and peaceful the guest house in the heart of the city, nice place to return to after touring.

Hostel is really amazing place. the system is different , but i used to get and i really enjoyed to be volunteering in there, im totally would love to come back there in some case you cannot use the kitchen in the morning because its the workers are preparing a breakfast but when is not busy totally fine. A room where i stayed , just for 2 people , its kinda comfortable . mostly shifts was at evening . so you can enjoy the city a lot . or you can combine your online study /works . just one time in the weekends i needed help with rooms at morning Perfect place to stay in Valpo. I was happy

At first it was a very good experience, but later there was a change of owners; the staff are very loving and make you feel at home, but regarding the schedules, they are not respected and they constantly ask you to work overtime. It has a good location but too much work with the current owner; guests disturb outside of hours and the pantry is very small. It has a very good location and the hostel is very beautiful; I suggest that if you go you make arrangements with the activities you will do, you will love it ❤️

This was my first volunteering experience; the responsibilities are clear and simple. We volunteered two days on, two days off, and we worked 3 hours in the morning doing light cleaning: sweeping and cleaning the shared bathrooms. The location is wonderful, safe, and close to all the main sights, so I would definitely recommend it.
