This was truly one of the most amazing volunteer jobs ever! From the working shifts to the people all over the world also staying there. Kaz the boss was also very cool with throwing parties so many times. At those there were free pizzas and drinks for free 🤩 The working hours were very very reasonable and you had so much time to explore Tokyo and all other places around, because you could also take the train into the other direction to Yokohama, Kamakura and many other beautiful places. Really recommend staying in the guest house 🏡 Best regards from Germany, An-Nam :)

My stay at Komae was great! The tasks are easy to handle and most of them are done much quicket than you might expect. You can easily connect with other international travellers in the lounge and at the partys. It is only half an hour from Shinjuku Station by train and you can explore Tokyo flexibly due to the flexible working times. I can't emphasize enough how fair the deal actually is! I had a lot of fun at Komae, thank you :)

I had a great time at the guest house. The Managers are nice and fun to be around at and Kaz is a really caring host. The international and national guests at the guest house are great as well and I had a great time with them. The work is straigh foward and also not too much and the pizza partys, hostet by Kaz are a great opportunity to connect with locals and to just have fun with everyone, especialy with Kaz's dog Balu!

I had a great time at Komae! Everyone is really nice and welcoming. Kaz always plans some events for everyone to join, so it's really easy to connect with other people. The work is really fair, and I had plenty of time to explore Tokyo. I would definitely recommend Komae!
