Although the hosts are nice people, the area they live in is extremely unsafe and far from the city center. It's impossible to walk alone on the street or socialize. In addition, the place they live in is in very poor condition — there isn't even a proper table or chair to eat at, and the room they offered for sleeping is very shabby, neglected, and dirty. The hosts constantly play loud music, and after 6 p.m., many people come and go from the house, leaving absolutely no privacy. I barely managed to get through one night there, scared and uncomfortable.

We opened the doors of our home despite being under construction and renovation, a situation she agreed to. We made an effort to prepare a comfortable room for her and adjusted the work for her well-being. Although she seemed warm upon arrival, she only stayed one night and didn't participate in any of the agreed-upon volunteer activities, which is the purpose of this platform. It's disappointing that despite our hospitality, her review reflects ingratitude. We believe that if one can't fulfill

Mi experiencia en el hostel fue totalmente satisfactoria. Luis y Ginna fueron anfitriones excelentes, siempre dispuestos a ayudar, escuchar y acompañar; los horarios de voluntariado se respetan según lo acordado y las tareas son súper sencillas. Destaco demasiado la ubicación y recomiendo mucho si te gustan los michis (los suyos son un amor). Si estás buscando algo sencillo que te permita hacer turismo mientras cumples tareas fáciles y te la pasas bien, este es tu lugar. Definitivamente volvería, el hostel es mi casita en Bogotá. Gracias a los anfitriones por la calidez y experiencia.

Mi experiencia fue excelente. Desde el primer día me sentí muy bien recibido y parte del equipo. El ambiente es tranquilo y acogedor. Los anfitriones son amables, atentos y siempre dispuestos a ayudar. Las tareas son claras y justas, y además hay tiempo para salir y conocer la zona. Sin duda una experiencia que recomendaría a cualquier viajero.
