Help our hostel in Beppu, hot spring city!

The manager was kind as other reviews say. However, a few issues made me uncomfortable and I left after one day. A man stared at me, later entered my locked private room, when momentarily opened, and followed me to the kitchen. The manager was apologetic and understanding during our talk but since the man was a regular customer, he just asked him to apologise which didn't feel reassuring for me. No locked showers only public baths. Cleanliness observations: - small bugs & used tissues under my bed - Pillowcases used to clean bathroom sinks - blanket covers not changed - toilet smells

It was an easy to do list and very straigh forward voluntering which could be done in couple of hours a day, which made a lot free time to explore the city of Beppu. Very near station, social spots, convinence store etc.

Got and Masatoshi were great and fair hosts. The work was really easy, usually just a few hours, so you have time to explore and visit all you want. The rooms and facilities were ok, but would very much benefit from a bit of renovation. Depending on your style and expectations, a few weeks might be quite enough to explore all the major attractions nearby. the hostel isn't amazing but it's very nice to just have it at your disposal at any time, and it might be absolutely wonderful during winter. During hot summer days, maybe not so much.

We really enjoyed our time here, Beppu and the Oita Prefecture in general is so beautiful. Beppu offered a chill vibe with lots of the hostel and lovely restaurants. Masatoshi-san and Got-san were both lovely and gave us great recommendations of places to go and things to do. The workings days were over in less than 2 hours pretty much every shift and the work was easy. Overall we had an amazing time here and met some great people, however we would say the only downside is the general cleanliness of the hostel some shared areas especially bathrooms weren't the cleanest, but nothing too major.

Beppu was a lovely place to slow down. Got-san gave some awsome suggestions for some forest the hostel in the mountains. And all the work was simple and easily finished.

Beppu was a nice small quiet town with still lots to do around! The place is quite rundown and u shouldn't be to picky with hygiene. the hostel is nice and u can easily use it without meeting other people. The managers are really nice and friendly! The work is not much so that's very nice. If ure lucky u might get ur own room while ur staying here.

I really enjoyed my time here, Masa-san and Got-san were always super nice to me and helpful anytime i needed. 🙏 Work was fair and as described, most of the times we would finnish a bit early which gave us a lot of time to explore the city (we started at 10am). You have a free the hostel (and for me, most of the times privat), which was amazing. I think the place could be a bit better cleaned in general, something's are just from the age of the building tho. Was in a room with one or two other volunteers, which gives you more privacy and freedom. 🙏 Also, lots of hiking, the hostel's and stuff to do.

It was ok . Like the work was easy and done before 2h but the cleaning standards really need to be improve. The hostel was not that clean and the facilities ( kintchen included) weren't that good at all. But there were free bikes and the deal was kind of respected! But there is still a lot to improve !

We stayed for nearly two weeks and had a fantastic time with the other volunteers. The work was simple and typically took less than two hours to complete, leaving us plenty of free time to explore Beppu (and Oita) or relax in the many local onsens. Bikes were available, which made getting around even easier! The only downside was that some common areas (which were not our responsibility to clean) were not well-maintained.
