I had an awesome time working at this hostal. The owner, Paul is the nicest guy, always has a positive attitude and passionate about his hostal. The assistant, Michael is a local with insight in the community who is as equally eager to share his knowledge as the guests are to learn. His positive aura is contagious effortlessly transforming even… read more

Vikki y Beth fueron unas excelentes workawayers. Las extrañamos mucho en el hostal. Creamos un lazo especialmente el último tiempo y pasamos muy buenos momentos.

Sé que donde vayan llenarán el ambiente con alegría, además de que son responsables y ordenadas. Unas voluntarias que de seguro no olvidaremos.

Con cariño,

Michael

Taylor volunteered at the hostel for one month and we are happy she enjoyed it. We had very funny moments playing cards and hanging around. She was an easy-going, mature and smart girl. She always tried to make an effort to get Spanish language and to explain things to guests in Spanish even when it was difficult for her. Thanks Taylor and keep… read more

I had a great experience at this hostel! Valparaiso is a lovely city and the hostel itself has amazing art and a calm, but social atmosphere. The work involved doing some light clean-up around the hostel, making beds, and interacting with guests (you should definitely know some spanish for that part.) Paul, the hostel owner, was a great person to… read more

The girls volunteered at the hostel for one month and we had an amazing time. We become friends and they were always so nice and funny.
They were very nice to guests and responsible with their shifts. It was so good to have them here and we still miss them a lot.

Neus y Emma han sido de las mejores voluntarias que hemos tenido. Llevan un mes en el hostal y queremos que se queden 2 meses más ya que se han encargado del hostal de una forma fabulosa.

Son muy simpáticas, responsables y ordenadas. Sé que cuando deban marcharse las extrañaremos mucho.

Eszter is one of those people you know once in life. She is so especial and we had an amazing time at the hostel. We got very good friends and shared the best moments ever.
She was always nice with guests and made efforts to make people feel comfortable.

Hope to see you soon, wherever it is. We will be friends forever.

Un abrazo grande!

Well, Lucy was the best. She was very insterested in trying new things for the hostel. She was always nice to people and always available when you asked her something to do.
We also had a lot of fun at the hostel or going out sometimes.

Lucy arrived speaking no Spanish and when she left she had improved a lot and was able to have some… read more

I had the best time working at this Hostal and staying in this beautiful city. Paul is a great host, super friendly and happy to welcome you into his life in Valparaiso. The work was easy enough and I met some really interesting people during my time at the hostal. I arrived speaking hardly any Spanish at all, but I left with enough to make… read more
