I had a great time at the hostel. I got to experience Bogotá's nightlife and had plenty of free time to explore the city on my own as well. Maria, Mau and the rest of the team at the hostel made it unforgettable. If you're looking for a party hostel where you go out nearly every night, I couldn't recommend it enough

Had a great time volunteering in the hostel. You have to be aware that you going to party a lot and that you have to be a the hostel person. But if you like that, then it's amazing. Tasks were clear and Maria tried to help out where she can. It's a lot of work, but worth the experiences.

Maria is a welcoming person and flexible regarding work. If your role is partying host, I highly recommend that you be someone who *really* enjoys partying and nightlife, as that's the hostel's main focus. The daily "initiation" also requires you to be outgoing and have an intermediate/advanced level of English, and it's a good opportunity to improve your English as well. They provide breakfast and vegetarian dinner (almost) daily. The hostel is well located, right in the historic center of Bogotá (La Candelaria), and you can do everything on foot.

My experience at the hostel was good overall. It's a party hostel, so it can be chaotic and get messy easily. Shifts can be long and split (around 9 hours), so you spend most of your day at the hostel and free party access comes with a few easy responsibilities. The parties were fun and the staff and guests were amazing, it's a very the hostel place. When I got sick, the managers were understanding and Maria was especially empathetic and flexible. The volunteers' dorm is quite small, but the location in La Candelaria is excellent. Parties are good, though sometimes they could be better organized.

I applied as a Content Creator but ended up doing reception and some of the guides' work while the pay guides were partied. While the Manager was kind and flexible, the Admin was rude and dismissive to me and four other volunteers but I know she tried her best. The final straw was being charged for dinner as a guest on my last day, despite my free labor and barely using the facilities. It's exploitation and offensive to the job that I did To other volunteers: Please leave honest reviews. Don't stay silent to avoid conflict; our work has value and others deserve to know the truth

Juliana, we explained that all volunteers are cross trained in reception. That’s part of our program structure so everyone support guests when needed. On the party bus, serving free alcohol has always been a volunteer task not a guide task. They are buys keeping the crowd organised. Regarding the dinner, you chose to end your volunteering three weeks earlier than agreed. Once the volunteering ends, the benefits end as well. The 20,000 COP charged was the normal guest contribution.

We volunteered for three weeks and had an amazing experience. The team was supportive and made us feel at home from day one. The work was fun with a lot of drinking games and inviting people from other hostels to the party and promoting the hostel's parties. The hostel was the hostel and perfect for meeting travelers from all over the world. We learned a lot and left with only good vibes. Emanuela & Simona

Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
