Carol are Simone are a lovely couple. They are hard working and flexible. They also have a very clear of tasks for volunteers so there is no confusion of what to do while working. The amount of work was perfectly fine and doable. I also appreciated the openness to the ideas I brought in to improve the hostel. The place is a dream. Very central and beautifully set up. I loved staying at this hostel and enjoyed meeting so many different beautiful people, locals as well as tourists. Thank you for this wonderful experience!

It was my first time volunteering, you get a lot out of the experience in terms of meeting people and places. In terms of the volunteer work, it wasn't complicated but it could have been a better experience if the owners were more hands on the volunteer work not only the hostel.

Tama Hostel, es un hostel muy cómodo para voluntariar, pero Simone no es una persona cercana con los voluntarios, no se introdujo nunca, ni hubo intención de su parte para acercarse y conocernos. El trabajo en sí no es super fácil y se respetan las tareas, pero se hace bastante poco ameno, debido a la poca amabilidad de Simone, quien en reiteradas ocasiones se enojaba por errores mínimos. Podría ser una muy buena experiencia si hubiese mayor intención de comunicarse y sociabilizar con los voluntarios. Para fines de febrero gran parte de los voluntarios decidieron irse del hostal.
