I highly recommend volunteering at La Fortuna in the hostel. I only have positive things to mention about Mr. Alex and his team, as he was always very respectful, helpful and kind. In addition, he always respected work schedules. The hostel is super clean, tidy, and the patio is super beautiful as the hostel River flows by and you can hear the water falling and connect with nature.
