Great experience with amazing people in such a wonderful little city. Every day feels like you're waking up in a movie and going to sleep in a palace.

I had a lovely experience at the hostel. The volunteers were so kind and welcoming and the staff was communicative. The work was also so manageable and I loved having an actual schedule so I could make plans and do things on days off. I would definitely recommend to volunteer here and had a great experience overall.
