The hostel was such a great experience, I got to meet/interact with different people. I felt comfortable and safe where I stayed at. Erin/josh make plans/throws out ideas for everyone in the hostel staff to get to know/explore Colorado. They have bikes and e-bikes so you can get around and there's bus transportation that can get you around Colorado Springs. I would suggest to bring your own car if you want to go to Denver and or other places around. the hostel has their own mascot named Romeo, he's a good boy. Overall the experience is something Ill never forget, I will miss my the hostel family.🫶

The hostel was a fun and easy going environment where you learn to love those you volunteer with. There's always passion for going on hikes, participating in local events, and having great conversations.

The owner, Erin, brings the spirit of European hostels to America. She's a very generous and active person who does a lot for her staff. There are always something fun to do: day trips, nice hikings, game nights, bonfire, and plenty others activities. The work and hours are exactly as said here and the accommodations are very nice and comfortable. Colorado Springs has a lot to offer for people who like the outdoors. Due to personal issues I couldn't stay longer but I definitely recommend the hostel for a cool place to volunteer and experience the beautiful Colorado and the American Culture!!!

I had a great experience during winter at RAD Hostel, so I couldn't imagine how wonderful it would be to volunteer at this place during summer given its amazing nature in the surrounding areas of the hostel. Huge thanks to the great team Erin, Mo, Joshua for making it an even better experience. They probably compete to have one of the best volunteer experiences out there. Oh, and you will even get to know a little crazy / cute puppy, Romeo. So go applyy 🎉🐶
