I can only say positive things about the hostel! It's an amazing place to stay! The team is so friendly and the accommodation is great (close to the beach too). The rooms and facilities are cleaned multiple times a day but the best part are the people who are so welcoming and give great energy that you immediately feel like part of the family. The job is flexible and the manager is very understanding. It's a great way to meet people and explore the city! Highly recommend!

The hostel is fun, very social, and a great place to meet people from all over the world. The guests are lovely, the accommodation is good, and the other volunteers really made the experience worthwhile. However, I think communication and organization could be improved, particularly regarding the relationship between volunteers and the kitchen/cleaning staff. Also having rules that are consistently followed by everyone. Overall, I enjoyed my time here, my job and the people I met. It's definitely a party hostel, so be prepared!

It was a nice experience overall. There are a few things to improve like the volunteers' accommodation but the team made up for it with their warmth and flexibility, especially Dalia, the manager, who was super helpful with a big smile on her face.

I've stayed in many different hostels in Rio and the hostel is undoubtedly one of the best. The location is ideal, on the edge of a granite cliff in a quiet corner of central Copacabana. The bar/patio where I worked are even built into the natural landscape. It's really cool. The facility is well equipped for volunteers and travelers, everyday staff put a lot of attention into keeping things smooth. One of the main reasons i returned to this hostel after staying there as a guest is because of the atmosphere and people it draws, always positive, always energetic. and always good.Check it out!👍

The people were mostly very nice and accommodating. My only complaint was about the room provided for stay. Not very comfortable . As well, it would be nice if they helped to resolve issues and confusions related to the work.

Maybe wasn't the best experience in terms of volunteering, be a Worldpaker means exchang skills for an accommodation, during high season we had some problems with that, but we fixed it; As well I think they should be a little bit more flexible with volunteers hours, just giving some extra days off or a free extra hours when they don't needs us, to let us visiting and join better the city; But afterwards the time spent there was incredibly amazing , I met extraordinary people, we had such a great time as a team. THANKS everyone! owners, managers, staff & WP! ALL OF U ARE JUST AMAZING

Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
