If you're looking to volunteer in CDMX, this is the spot for you. The work is as agreed to and the staff is amazing. Shoutout Cassandra, Oscar, and Eduardo.

I absolutely loved my time at the the hostel. The staff and volunteers were so friendly and lovely, and I felt welcomed and at home even as I was adjusting to my new surroundings. The hours of work were exactly as expected and I befriended so many young travelers staying at the hostel. Everyone was accommodating and inclusive and saying my goodbyes at the end was painful and sad. I highly recommend this experience to any person. ily and imy Fleur, Hamlet, Ashley, Oscar, Eduardo and Cass <33

This is a great hostel in a great location with a great group of staff and guests. I initially arranged a month here, but then extended it for another month. The shifts are relaxed and in line with what's agreed with Esther on the initial call, and they are usually in the morning or evening so you have lots of time during the days to go out and do things. There's a sociable breakfast on the roof-top terrace for staff and guests where people often meet and make plans for the day, plus there are a few days each week with a small social event.

Absolutely have loved my time here at the hostel. Cassandra, Lalo, and José all impacted me in such a beautiful way! I am so thankful to have made friends from around the world here. Esther is extremely accommodating in terms of arranging your schedule so that you're able to explore on your days off! I would love to come back, and could not recommend this experience enough :)

Esther was incredibly kind and understanding! I hurt my foot during my stay and could barely walk and the team let me take the time to care for it (Btw the hostel is up 4 flights of stairs). I would recommend this hostel and I'd love to come again!
