Volunteering at the hostel has been amazing! The hosts make you feel comfortable and welcomed, helping you out with whatever you need. It's a super sociable place where you'll meet tons of people from all over the world. The work you have to do isn't complicated, and you've got loads of free time to do whatever you want . The location is spot on, with plenty of metro stations nearby and easy access . Huge thanks to all the Staff, would definitely do it again! 😊😊

My experience here was amazing! Takuro-san is such a kind person, and the staff made me feel cozy and welcome all the time. I also made a lot of friends during my stay. I'm really going to miss the whole team. Maika, Hayato, Shusuke, and Catalina. Thank you all for everything! ❤️

Great Hostel, staff is super friendly, and it really is the most social hostel of Osaka 👍 Hours are fair, and work is easy. Very recommended, as you can also choose the dates that you want to have off!

Being my first volunteering experience I didn't know what to expect, but as of now I can confidently say that its the best choice I've ever made. Since the very first day I was welcomed by the staff and fellow volunteers that made the whole experience something I'll never forget. The work and tasks are simple and straightforward and the working hours are fair and not too much. I've had so much fun during my time here and I can confidently say that this hostel is one of the most social out there. I'm grateful to everyone I met during this experience and will most likely come back 🙌💯.
