Great chill and comfy hostel in Centro Historico in Arequipa! The owners Erick and Manuel made me feel very comfortable and welcome from day 1, The tasks are very easy to do and the hostel permits plenty of time to get to know the city, enjoy the local tours and make friends with other travelers. Carla and Victor at the front desk were also great!!!

Erick and Manuel are amazing! From the moment I started they made me feel like a part of the family. They listened to my inquiries and treated me with love and respect. as my first volunteering experience I can't say how lucky I feel to have been a part of this team. I hope to see you guys one day again! þangað til næst!

Um bom hostel, bem tranquilo. A maioria dos viajantes é da europa, então o inglês é mais usado. Donos e funcionários legais e nada de regras absurdas. Só ficar ligado sobre os tours. Pros: -Boa estrutura. -Perto da plaza de armas. -trabalho tranqui. -bom café da manhã. Contra: -os descontos dos tours no hostel n são bons.
