The hostel provides a great opportunity to be located in the historic center of Bogota and to meet international travelers and locals alike. Expect to work often and have late hours, but to have fun while doing it. The staff and other volunteers are very warm and welcoming, and if you are looking to have a great time while exploring the culturally bountiful and beautiful city of Bogota, the hostel is the perfect place to do so. I will never forget my time and the people I met here.

The the hostel has a fun and amazing staff. It isa great location that allows you to really get to know and explore Bogotá. You are constantly meeting international travelers and have lots of time to interact with everyone! Hours are a little more than I prefer (30 hrs/week) but definitely manageable

Volunteering at the hostel was an amazing experience, where I was able to both enjoy my time working my shift and enjoy using my free time to experience the city of Bogota. During my time, I met many kind and helpful people who made me feel welcome and who made my time at this hostal so valuable. Specifically, other volunteers, guests of the hostel and members of staff, many of whom I am lucky enough to consider them friends. The hours were always stuck-to, the work is taught very clearly and communication was always available so there were never any issues. I would definitely recommend the hostel!

The location as well as the colleagues are amazing. The hostel is perhaps one of a kind and the work you settle in quite easily. Definitly recommendable

Hostel R-10 is a beautiful old colonial building located in la candelaria (the cultural neighborhood in Bogotá) so there is a lot of things to do and explore by foot. The team was such nice people and we became a small family and Im really grateful for this experience! I was at reception and the tasks are pretty straightforward, the only thing is that is a 24 hour hostel so sometimes you work at night and the shifts are 8 hours long but you have 3 days off so it compensates and allows you to do long daytrips to the surrounding areas of Bogotá

Hello, my Name is Julia and I worked in the hostel for 1 1/2 months. The building of the hostel is very cool and you will have a lot of space to be. Everybody who is working here will give you tips what you should do here and where you have to go in Colombia. I got here with a spanish who was ok and I improved a lot so now it is good. I was here with a lot of other Voulenteerers and together we had a lot of fun. Everybody alway helped me with every question I had. Thanks a lot for my experience here.

I had a phenomenal experience with the hostel, 10/10 would recommend. The staff culture is really tight and the people are so great. I think it's different than other hostels because the (overwhelmingly international) guests are primarily just there for a day or two so you don't get to know them so well, but I think maybe because of that the staff is really tight-knit. Also virtually all of the staff is a volunteer, so I think that helps make connections. Reception work is really interesting and varied. Camilo is really respectful of your time and will give you the hours you want so you can travel :)

I was bartending in the hostel for a month and it definitely was one of the best months of my trip. I felt there like home, all the staff members are amazing people. It's one of the best hostels I've ever been to, the building is beautiful. Definitely recommend volunteering here, especially as a bartender!
