My stay at the hostel was really nice. Michael is a very friendly person that was always kind even though I made a few mistakes during my first shift. The Hotel is lokated perfectly to discover San pedro and the other cities around the lake, which i did in my free time before my shifts. I always worked the evening shift, from 3 - 8 pm at reception, which was pretty chill. Really enjoyed my time there.

This was a really nice experience, the work was very mixed. It ranged from helping in the restaurant to doing gardening and construction work. Sometimes it would be busy and sometimes quiet so there was an entertaining mix of things to do. The people were so nice and welcoming, they were amazing. It was a bonus being in a place that was a bit out of the centre and had a nice chill vibe about it. I would recommend!

A experiência no hostel foi ótima :) minhas tarefas foram bem variadas, ajudei no restaurante, na jardinagem e na pintura de um mural com outros voluntários, o que tornou o trabalho muito versátil e nada entediante! A área das barracas é ok, no período em que estive não havia chuveiro com água quente. Michael é compreensivo e flexível, a comunicação sempre foi clara e positiva. Tive a oportunidade de me conectar com pessoas incríveis durante meu voluntariado. Muito muito grata pelo que vivi no hostel!

Mí experiencia en el hostel fue de mucho aprendizaje, la ubicación es excelente un lugar con salida al lago. Una vista que te alegra el día. Infelizmente llegué en temporada de lluvia, lo que hizo que las instalaciones dificiluntaran un poco mí estadía, ya que no había agua caliente. Tuve algunas inquietudes que Michael aceptó con respeto y agradezco mucho. Conocí personas que me llevo en el corazón. Flori me ayudó y enseño mucho también. Les deseo todo el éxito para sus proyectos!❤️✨🫂 Gracias por abrirme las puertas de ese hermoso lugar. 🤍🍃
