The Experience

La tarea principal es la recepción, recibiendo, haciendo cobros y ubicando a los viajeros en las habitaciones, tambien dandoles una charla de las actividades que pueden hacer en La Fortuna. En los momentos en los que no hay check in te pediremos que mantengas el orden de las areas comunes y que nos ayudes doblando sabanas.

My time at the hostel was very chill. The hostel is super comfy and clean, and through my work at the reception I could connect with other travellers easily. The tasks were simple and explained well. Anytime there was a problem, Ana was usually there to help, although once there was an unusual situation that I didn't know how to handle bc she didn't explain it in advance. Only downside: You can't do that much in La Fortuna without having to pay quite a bit for the tours. So it's really nice that volunteers get discounts, but it still adds up if you want to da lot of things.

I really enjoyed each day of staying in La Fortuna. The work and tasks are easy to accomplish throughout the shift. Ana is so kind and understanding, she helped me with the hundreds of questions I always had. She'll always be available for any situation that may come up. There's a lot of time to explore and walk through the center of the town and the discounts you get as a volunteer for tours are really nice as well! The fans and curtains on each bed are very much appreciated and it makes you feel like you have a lot of privacy. I'll always remember my time here and the buenas vibras, thank u!

I had a great time at the hostel! The tasks were simple and easy - mainly reception, folding sheets, and cleaning up the common kitchen. You have a lottttt of free time. Ana is an amazing host! She answered any questions and was accommodating! Thank you Ana!

Working at the hostel with Ana was a pleasure! The tasks were super clear (and even written down!) and I even had the chance to have a shift that allowed me to do lots of different things during the day:) Ana was also always there if I had any questions or issues. Overall, it's a really well organized place, with a cleaning lady coming everyday, big kitchen with lots of storage and with access to a variety of cooking tools, clean room… My friend and I had the chance to see a variety of things, we truly loved the experience and the bound with Ana;)

I had a great time at the hostel. There are many tours, hikes, and activities easily accessible from the hostel. The work is not difficult and leaves you with time to do other activities. Also Ana the host is willing to help you coordinate anything you need.
