The best hostel, with the best host, in one of the best cities in Brazil. The last point might be arguable. The hostel has the best structure I found (up to this day ), Elisa (the hostess, whom I had the luck to meet while in Brazil, as she travels so much hehe) made everything she could to make the experience more comfortable and pleasant. The hostel (to this point) is quite new - with just a few months -, so, granted, there can be a few gaps, but nothing obfuscates its shine.

The weeks I spent at the hostel were very pleasant. Elisa's hostel was extremely clean, I felt very comfortable, I ate very well, the tasks were very easy and well directed. It was a pleasure meeting everyone; I made good friends.

The experience at the hostel was wonderful! The hostel is beautiful, organized and clean. Elisa is one of the best hosts I have ever had; she is very generous and very communicative, if a problem occurs or any doubt, she tries to resolve the situation, she has a gift for that. I learned a lot staying at the hostel, it is Bela Curitiba Hostel's idea, not just to pass but to grow and continue forward. The tasks are well balanced, when divided into 3 days, there is a lot of time to enjoy, study, and work. The location is great, near Jardim, the gym, markets, holidays. Without a doubt I will return!

Always good to return to Curitiba, a city that has already won a place in my heart; the hostel offers excellent infrastructure. People are always gathering to do things together, meals together. This time I had the pleasure of meeting Elisa, who has a rich wealth of cultures and languages, and the volunteer Jeronimo, who was already there when I arrived, always brightening the environment, supporting, and who makes great vegetarian meals. Thank you for having me again.

My experience at the hostel was great. The hostel creates a family-friendly environment, where everyone helps each other. The facilities are always very clean and organized. There are many spaces to share with people and to relax if you need. Elisa and Kazhim (and Bal) are amazing. They help you in many ways, especially with the things you are looking to do. The staff changed over time but was always very nice, collaborative and friendly. I highly recommend volunteering here and getting to know Curitiba and also the nearby national parks!! Thank you very much, everyone ❤️
