Primeira experiência foi ótima, comunicação muito aberta com os outros voluntários, todas as tarefas são bem fáceis, o Hostel em si é bem pequeno e por isso as tarefas fáceis, mas infelizmente o quarto dos voluntários é bem pequeno e peca apenas por ter uma padaria em baixo onde começam os trabalhos às 4:00 da manhã e fazem muito barulho, fora isso recomendo muito.Aprendi muito com todos que passaram no hostel o tempo que fiquei lá, infelizmente o anfitrião não conheci ele, apenas na entrevista, mas agradeço pela oportunidade e recomendo muito pra quem quiser fazer uma primeira experiência.

Gracias por todo la casa y equipo. Me llevo un mes de mucho aprendizaje. Gracias por permitirme ser parte. Recomiendo mucho si buscas un lugar tranquilo y ameno. Reynaldo y Thiago siempre atentos a todo, me senti como en casa. Ame Rio de Janeiro. Vuelvo pronto sin dudas!🙏❤️

O lugar é tranquilo, pequeno e as tarefas são tranquilas também. Porém, não tem convivência com os anfitriões, só pelo wpp e uma vez por semana quando um deles vai lá, no mais os voluntários ficam sozinhos no hostel o que é complicado. O lugar é bem quente e tem poucos ventiladores e o quarto de voluntários é beeeeem pequeno cabe apenas 2 pessoas. Vale a pena a estádia, mas não por muito tempo.

Fue mi primer experiencia como voluntario y me encantó. El hostel es tranquilo y el trabajo se divide con los otros voluntarios. Buen lugar para alguien que quiere visitar Rio de Janeiro y mantenerse en un lugar tranquilo. El hostel tiene todo cerca y el metro a unos 15 min caminando.

A experiência foi incrível! Fiz muitas conexões. O ambiente é limpo e organizado, igual nas fts, fui bem acolhida pelos voluntários que me auxiliaram em tudo, viramos uma família. As tarefas são simples, mas achei muito 8h de turno. A localização é boa, segura, vários comércios e metrô. A ressalva é a falta de comunicação e socialização dos donos com os voluntários, não há nenhum interesse em se relacionar por parte deles e quando precisamos entrar em contato, a resposta é demorada. Penso que deveriam rever o check in remoto, pois éramos surpreendidas com hóspedes de madrugada sem nos avisarem
