Little Japan has been a very fun experience:) the work is easy and you will end your shift very fast, even though sometimes it can be a little bit physical. I didn't stayed in the hostel, but in a sharehouse the owner has 20 minutes away from LJ, and it was really good. The volunteers I met were great people and we had some much fun. The local staff is also very nice, even though we didn't hanged out many times. The owner wasn't around a lot and sometimes communicating with him could be tough, but he was nice. Also, now there's a manager, Yusuke, who's really kind! Overall I had a good time!

Bad..I was supposed to live 10 min walk from Little Japan. Before arrival they sent me the location of a place that was 30min away. No one knew I was coming either. The 3 meals are only allowed to eat at Little Japan. Makes it impossible to have if you live 30min away and only work 4 days a week. The boss doesn’t communicate well and doesn’t solve problems. After I asked to move to the 10min walk sharehouse and let him know that I am not happy with the situation, he started getting upset with me and made up reasons for why I’m a bad worker. It became very uncomfortable so I left by emergency.

What she wrote is not true. Other reviews show that we have always followed the stated conditions. Accommodation and meals are confirmed only after prior explanation and consent. There are two houses, 10 minutes apart by bicycle or on foot. After learning she couldn’t ride a bike, we offered the closer house, but she chose to stay. She ignored rules, skipped shifts without notice, and left earlier than agreed, which caused trouble for the team. Please see our review of her for the main issues.

I really enjoyed my experience in Little Japan !
I like this neighbourhood easy access to asakusa , Ueno , Akihabara . I was in sharehouse 15 min walk, a good way to learn about the Japanese culture.
You got free meal or you can cook so you can save some money . (Sometime it’s not possible because the kitchen is rented)
tasks are easy , usually from 9-3pm but possible to finish earlier sometimes . If there too many bed an other staff will help.
If you want to visit an other city you may have to swap shift if you want 3 days straight.
I recommend if you wanna stay in Tokyo

Little Japan is a really nice place. Asakusabashi is probably one of the best zones in Tokyo, it is a quiet and peaceful place while also being in the center of Tokyo.

The best part would be meeting othe staff, they were very friendly, funny and welcoming!

If you are a guy you are going to sleep in the 5th floor of the hostel, a small room with four beds that feels a bit small and dirty, the whole hostel is a bit dusty.

The work is nice and not too demanding, if you do a good job and work fast you will probably finish earlier!

Having food is the winning point of this hostel!

I had a great time at Little Japan. Location is perfect, I met some cool people, the food/drinks was also a pro. The sharehouse (which contains a women-only dorm) is about a 10 minute walk away. Staff consists of ~4 international and ~10 Japanese volunteers

For cleaning staff, the hours are either 9-3 or 10-1, and it is a lot if you do it properly. Some of the staff members like to do things together on their days/evenings off, so it’s nice because you can make some friends.

It’s a little difficult if you’re vegetarian, the pre cooked meals contain meat.
