Loved this experience, the hosts were absolutely amazing and were amazing and patient at the beginning with my lack of certain Spanish vocabulary but they created a great space and the other volunteers were incredibly sociable as well. I'm happy I went to this host!

I had an amazing stay at the guest house and I am very thankful for how I was greeted and treated here. The cleaning schedule and tasks were clear, but be aware some days are very busy and you need to keep up with the tasks and the busy rythm. Vladimir & Alicia's family were nice to me and helped me with whatever I needed. It's a place I recommend to volunteer if you want to spend some time to get to know Cusco.

The guest house was an unfortunate experience. The manager/owner is a hardworking man but is difficult to work for. He's deceptive, doesn{t serve the clients. Examples: A customer complained that she was cold and wanted another blanket. His response: 'It's not cold' A couple came in for a room they'd reserved, but did not choose to stay. Reason: 'This is not what was advertised.' His response: 'They have to pay.' As a volunteer, i worked 5 +hrs/day. For what? The bed costs $7/nt Food: usually bad, 2 days it was all right. Always cold, waking up, cold. Many keys, all unmarked. frustrating

The guest house was my first volunteering experience, and overall it wa the guest house was my first volunteering experience, and overall it was a very positive and meaningful one. Vladimir and his family are genuinely kind, friendly and welcoming people. A special thank you to Isabel, who prepared delicious lunches for us, and to Alicia, Vladimir's wife, who is such a warm and wonderful person. Since this is a family-run organization, there are no regular employees. Şöyle çok kısa ve doğal olur: “Since there are no employees, the cleaning can be quite tiring.”
