After spending 3 weeks at the hostel, i can understand why people are crazy for this hostel. The place is beautiful, the energy is amazing, people are nice and theres always activities happening. The food is good, they are always happy to help, the hostel is always very clean. The parties are awesome and you end up meeting a lot of people. The only thing i can "complain" is that the volunteers room is the only one close to the bar, so we hear loud music until 3am on most days. At least it works as an excuse to party all night. Would love to comeback.

I had the time of my life in the hostel, it was my first time volunteering and it couldn't have been better! What was supposed to be only 3 weeks turned into two months, which went by in a blink of an eye. Everybody (from the Reception to the Experience, Bar<3, Kitchen, Cleaning crew, etc...) welcome me with their arms open and made me feel right at home. To the hostel family: with all my heart, I thank everyone of you for making my time there so special. I truly loved every moment lived with you guys, and hopefully I can return soon so we can live more! Los amo y los extraño mucho!! XO

My experience at the hostel in Lima was honestly amazing. It was my first volunteer experience in South America, and it couldn't have been better. I met so many incredible people, the team was extremely kind, supportive and always willing to help. From the very beginning I felt welcomed. The atmosphere in the hostel is very social and positive. I truly enjoyed every moment of my time there, I'm leaving this place with a lot of beautiful memories and honestly with a bit of sadness. I will definitely miss it and hope to come back one day.

I had an amazing time volunteering at the hostel. It was a great way to connect with local culture and meet people from all over the world. I could practice my languages and learn more about the history of the area. The rooms and common spaces are always clean and organized, and Kamu, the hostel's pet, is absolutely adorable. Highly recommended!

It was a very enriching experience of learning and cultural exchange. Shift schedules were very well respected and any adjustments to requests were accommodated, and I was very well received by everyone. What a pleasure to meet everyone, especially the kitchen and bar staff. Whether it's the night or morning shift, the shifts are a lot of fun and the time flies by, plus it's a great opportunity to practice languages, learn about gastronomy, make drinks, and sample food and beverages. Thank you, the hostel family.

It was a very pleasant month and I am sad to leave this place. I've met some really cool people and was glad to immerse myself in the local work culture. However it was frustrating to find out that the description of the bartending tasks didn't align with the reality. If you're looking for a bartending opportunity to practise your mixology skills this is not the place. You don't really get to do the interesting tasks like mixing drinks or cooking food but rather do those annoying little tasks the staff doesn't want to do. Still a great experience

Had a good time at the hostel Lima hours were respected and the team was very flexible with my schedule since I was going to Spanish school in the mornings. The bartenders will do there best to make you feel comfortable and include you in things.

The hostel was a great experience! The staff was very welcoming, I barely know any Spanish and they were very helpful and kind, I felt comfortable. I met so many great people, and im gonna miss my work friends! The work itself in the bar was fun, and what I expected. The location is great for artistic inspiration, lots of activities to do nearby, great food, and Cusco is only a 1.5h flight! Highly recommend this experience.

This was a really fun place to volunteer. The staff are all lovely and the hours are kept really well. They're also flexible with the schedule which is great if you want to do day trips whilst staying in Lima. Great way to meet locals and practice Spanish as well as meeting lots of people staying at the hostel, which is beautiful and an amazing area to stay in.
