Fine if you are happy to basically do the job that the owners doesn't want to do. For example cutting redundant pipes and making good work that hasn't been completed correctly in the first place. When I told the host I didn't think I would stay for the duration I was then greeted with looks and treated poorly from her colleague who sits and stares at you and cleaner. For accommodation and 1 piece of chicken and rice in the evening this really isn't worth it. Basically working for free for the benefits of the hostel.

Dear Greg

We appreciate your honesty when you said you don't know about the things to do that you apply for in this program which was repairing and painting...

I absolutely loved staying in the hostel, Fernanda is a lovely person and the place is beautiful. I spend a great time at the hostel. The kitchen is also very good, with a great view of the city and there's a lot of spaces to chill at the hostel. I recommend a lot the experience. I hope I can come back to Quito and spend some more time here. <3

I had a nice experience, the hostel has a perfect location right in the heart of the historical center so it's quite easy to walk to all the interesting areas, the hostel is usually perfect and clean, all in the best conditions possible, the dorm is also quite nice and warm (hard to say in a cold city like Quito) sometimes your shift may be confusing but Fher is always up to clear things and explain in detail. It's not a party hostel, not a lot of backpackers either, so if you're a lot into socializing, you may find it boring sometimes, not a lot of activities to get involved either.

Este ha sido de los mejores voluntariados que he hecho. Desde el primer día Fernanda me hizo sentir en casa; es una anfitriona increíble, muy atenta y siempre pendiente de que uno esté a gusto. Me ayudó mucho con consejos para conocer Quito y Ecuador, estoy muy agradecido con ella. Durante mi estancia colaboré pintando una pared y siempre tuve los materiales necesarios. La comunicación es excelente y respetan los horarios. El hostal está cerca de todo y es ideal para practicar inglés porque llega gente de todo el mundo. ¡Fue una experiencia increíble y me sentí muy bien acogido! 🙌
