Why we need deposit Unfortunately some of staffs breaks the items in guest house . Some of them can’t work and leave without arranging job schedule. If the above case happens, we need to consider that staff can start here. But don’t worry, 99% staff are no problem! And staff can get the money before leaving here. Thank you!

I had a very good experience during my volunteer placement; the volunteers are very well received. The rooms are comfortable, and the work isn't difficult. I highly recommend this volunteer opportunity. The hotel is very well located in Osaka.

I loved being part of Osaka Guest House. I met some wonderful people and had amazing experiences. Thanks Takeo and Madoka who is a lovely person; she even bought me a birthday cake! The work is simple and well organized. Ojalá repetir muchas veces este mes en Osaka, por más viajes al Donki juntos 💕

This is my third time coming back here, and it's clearly because of the people. Madoka and Takeo truly care about you and make you feel like part of the family. I'll miss them ❤️ and I promise I'll be back again! The showers work great, the beds are super comfortable with curtains for privacy, and the work is simple and well explained! plenty of time to explore the city and surroundings. Highly recommend!

My experience at the guest house was truly memorable. My friend and I stayed for a long time and met a lot of great volunteers. The tasks were very simple and could easily be done in the stated time, so we always had free afternoons to explore the city. Free days were always respected and schedule was given a month in advance in case any changes needed to be made (they are flexible with that too) Madokaさん and Takeoさん were always very kind with us. They made meals for us, invited us to baseball matches and other events. I really felt appreciated and learned a lot!! ほんとにありがとうございます。

The experience at the guest house was wonderful. Obviously, you have to work hard, but they are flexible if you need anything and do their best to help you. Takeo and Madoka are very nice people. For example, Madoka-san cooked delicious food for us. We also did lots of fun activities and are now big fans of the Hanshin Tigers. However, I must also say that the experience also depends in part on the volunteers you share your stay with, and we were lucky that the majority of them were super friendly. Thanks to all of them. It was a very comfortable place to stay. Thanks for welcoming us.
