I stayed at the hostel for roughly two months and it was a great time! There is a fridge, pantry area and washing machine just for staff to use which is super handy when the hostel is fully booked with guests. The staff are all really friendly and welcoming, and always happy to help with any travel suggestions and generalised support. The work is very fair, with tasks rotating between staff and the work never extends 3 hours per shift. Management is also helpful with creating shift schedule flexibility should you want to explore this. Highly recommended!

The hostel was my first stay in Japan, and I can say it was a grest experience! The hostel is a bit far from center of the city, but there is a metro 5 minutes walking so its no problem. Also, the visitors are calm and wont make much noise, since most of them come to visit OUS. The staff I met there were great, and we had a grest time together! We did alot of stuff together and everyone was very respectful. I definitely recommend staying at this hostel!

I had such an amazing stay at the hostel. It was always a fun time with the staff and the volunteers and I felt welcomed and integrated right from the start. The work is easy and quickly done, leaving a lot of time to explore the region. I 100% recommend it!!

My time in the hostel was perfect! The staff is wonderful, super energetic and cheerful. The hours are 11am-2pm and if we finish earlier we help others until we all finish❤️ The room is nice and location is 5 min away from the station so it's super convenient. You can also borrow the bikes and you can wash your clothes for free. I had a great time and would recommend it for everyone! I really enjoyed my stay, thank you!

I had a pleasant time at the hostel, the environment and staff are very warm and welcoming, the bunks are spacious and feels like you have your own room, the location is a bit out of the way but it is very close to a train station!
