I had an amazing time in the hostel ! I was traveling alone for the first time and it felt like I was being part of a new family. Everyone is here to make sure everything is good for you. The work at the bar is really chill and the schedule lets you have a lot of time to explore Rio. A huge thanks to Carola, Leandro and Silas who made this stay really exceptional. I highly recommend this experience !

The hostel has been my best experience as a volunteer. You really get there and feel part of the family. It's organized, clean. The volunteers room is big and comfortable. Thank you Fernanda, Carola and Leandro for the opportunity to work with you in the hostel.

I spent two amazing months at the hostel, working the nightshifts at the reception. Fernanda, the host is super welcoming and she immediately makes you feel part of the family. The rest of the stuff and other volunteers were also really friendly and you can have a lot of fun with them. The hostel has a very familiar ambiance, it is tranquil (definitely not a party hostel, which I was grateful for), cozy and clean. In case you needed help with something or had any questions, Fernanda was always happy to help.
