I spent a month a the hostel Mount the hostel and I had an incredible time. It was my first worldpackers experience and it was such an enjoyable one. The staff here were kind and welcoming. The other volunteers at the time were also super nice and great to be around. The guests too. It was a pretty warm and friendly vibe to be honest. The work was as agreed upon with hours being fair and rostered. Work is split between the Mount the hostel branch and the hostel branch but this is communicated beforehand. It was easygoing and not overly stressful at all. Recommend!

I spent a month here and it was a very interesting and rewarding experience. The atmosphere is relaxed, the place is easy and comfortable to live in, and I had a lot of fun during my stay. I met many kind and interesting people from all over the world, and the staff was always super nice and helpful. The work itself is simple and well-organized, but it does require dedication and attention to detail. That said, the tasks are clear and the team is supportive, so everything runs smoothly. Highly recommend!

I had a really great time at the hostel Mt. the hostel! Most of the staff are absolutely lovely and super welcoming, and I was sad to leave everyone! There was a small difference in terms of the tasks assigned vs the tasks they mention in the ad but when it was brought up the staff were super receptive and resolved to correct the discrepancies. They have two hostels and helpers will work at both during their time there. I stayed at Mt. the hostel and it was a really gorgeous place close to the lake with comfy beds and a huge kitchen!

In general my experience was amazing, I was well treated and respected by everybody, staff members, volunteers and guests, so I leave a bit of my heart in this place! The hostel is cozy and the kotatsu is the best place in the world!! I feel the main thing that could be bettered would be the management and communication, this because the teams of staff can change daily, and this creates different types of leadership. Sometimes you finish early, sometimes at 15pm, independently of the tasks being done or not, the schedule might be important to fulfill. It was a good experience and loved it 🙏

Definitely a great place! The location is good the city is really beautiful. Everything is clean. The work is never more than that you agreed up front and is exactly what you expect. The staff is great as well. Kind, respectful and always there if you need help with anything. Absolutely a place I would recommend if you want a place which is a bit more slow and relaxed.

It is a beautiful place, with large lakes and beautiful mountains. There are many things to do in this more rural japanese place. Everyone is very friendly and the work is easy and quick. It has been a pleasure!

I stayed at the Hostel together with my friend and we had a great time. the Hostel and the staff are great and very friendly. The big kitchen and cozy lounge area is shared with the guests, which gives great opportunities to meet other travelers. The staff and other volunteers were an amazing little group. We often hung out together and somtimes we had little cooking evenings together to share recepies and connect. The Hostel is situated closely to the lake and we often took bicycles to explore the area. And even during the busy days, we never had to work more then agreed upon.
