We had a brilliant time in Merlo and highly recommend working with Collin and his wonderful friends. They have a great hostel with alot of cool people staying and stopping by to hangout and socialise. The work is very manageable and they maintain a very relaxed atmosphere for both staff and guests. Thanks for everything and hope cross paths again.

Lucas Y flor nos visitaron por 3 semanas. Fue maravilloso tenerlos en nuestro Hostel, sumaron muchas cosas buenas y fueron muy cálidos, amistosos y realmente responsables con todas las tareas que le propusimos. Nos cocinaron rico y enseñaron muchas cosas. Ojala vuelvan, los recomendamos mucho.
