Volunteering at the hostel was definitely the best experience I could ever wish for. Not only did the staff totally embrace me and make me feel like home, we have become great friends. I'll miss them all and remember this experience for the rest of my life. 💚

I had an amazing experience at the hostel. My colleagues are the best, they are fun, nice and helpful. I also loved the hostel, you can feel at home. The guests are very satisfied with their stay so it make our work easier. Since it's a small hostel we can have more interaction with the guests and make friendships. It's also super well located, 1 minute walking to the Gloria station from where you can go everywhere. It's also very close to Lapa or Flamenco beach. A big thank you to Myris, Ana, Lais, Fábio, Edina, Felix and Ben, you made my stay at the hostel unforgettable !

Hey there!!! My experience at the hostel was very nice. I could work and enjoy Rio, as I imagined it'd be. The hostel is very nice and clean and the staff members are very polite and cool. It was a very nice period volunteering there!!! Btw, lots of gringos stay at the hostel, so I could learn more about life and also practice English, Spanish and German. I highly recommend to volunteer there. Thank you all

I worked on the hostel suits, because they have a best job and they said that they have disponibility on their hostel, the rooms from voluntariado are good, i had my onw machine to clean my clothes, the work was god and they had breakfest and everybody from the staff and the owner treat me well, unhappy i just stayed with then until 5 of march, because i cant be in brazil for too much time because of the VISA. This situation was not my falt and they didnt liked but in the end they understood what happed. Im thankfull for the oportunitie to work there, thank u so much

Ter estado esses 2 meses no hostel foi incrivel. O ambiente nos faz sentir como uma extensão de nossa casa. As atividades são simples, os benefícios são inúmeros e maravilhosos; e além de tudo, temos uma família por lá. Muito obrigada Myris, Ben e toda equipe por esses dias incríveis. Vcs fazem parte da minha família. 🫂❤️🙏🏻
