Best hostel I volunteered for so far! When you manage the stairs you have a nice view and you got a pool to cool off. Hostel is chill, nice to meet people and still really close to a party hostels or lapa for a night out. Dani and the rest of the team made me feel welcome right away and the work was easy and not a lot. I highly recommend :)

The hostel was a great experience to me as a volunteer! Tasks and working shifts were clear. We always had communication channels with the rest of the team in case of any unexpected situation. The place has a lot of nature, an amazing view of Lapa and the center, a pool, and even some little monkey visitors, it's also very well located. The team is small but very kind people. I could experience Rio Carnival and met amazing people in the hostel!

I had a great volunteering experience at the hostel. The owners and the staff are very welcoming and friendly. I loved working at the bar, the tasks were always perfectly explained and I developed many new skills. I could also improve my portugues, learning a lot of carioca slang :) The hostel is well located and the atmosphere is very relaxed. Thank you to everybody for this amazing time, I hope to be back soon!
