Lara and Lautaro are amazing hosts, they welcomed me in so quickly and by the end of my time I felt like family, I simply couldn't have asked for a better a first volunteer exchange. The hostel is clean and everyone is kind and patient. I'd recommend it anyone who enjoys meeting new people and enjoys immersing in a new culture. Between pizza nights and days spent exploring the little town of La Fortuna, and meeting people from ALL OVER the world, I had a wonderful time and I couldn't say anything negative about the days I spent here. My only regret is I didn't stay longer ;)
