I loved my stay at Hotel the hostel, it's very clean, well-equipped, and the room is comfortable with all the necessary amenities. My colleagues were amazing and super friendly, and Joon, the manager, is kind, accommodating, respectful, and understanding. As a volunteer, I felt very well treated, protected, and cared for. It was a real pleasure working there. Thank you to the entire front desk and housekeeping team!

This opportunity is absolutely worthwhile having a try and I recommend it to someone who would like to connect with travelers from different countries. The duty is mainly about the reception and some other related work is involved too. The hours are well respected and the schedule is fixed. The private room is cozy, could meet most of the daily needs. Really happy to be a member of the team during this time! Lucy and Joon are both super nice, always supportive, and the other staff are welcoming and friendly too. The hostel itself is also a good accommodation choice for traveling! 😉

It was my first time volunteering and I absolutely loved it!:) The team was really nice and showed me everything I have to do. The tasks were easy and clear. I could always ask questions if I forgot something. I finished early basically everday, so there is plenty of time to explore Seoul. The location is perfect, since its in the center of Seoul. I can absolutely recommend to volunteer here!:)

I highly recommend volunteering at ARA Hostel! The tasks are clearly described , and hours well respected ,it's basically housekeeping, which leaves you with plenty of free time to explore and enjoy the city. The staff is super friendly and always helpful. accommodation isn't very big but if you get along with your roommate, it works just fine as you only share with other person. The location is also perfect close to everything you might need. And hostel has 2 kitchen that you can use too. Thank you so much, Yun! I really enjoyed the past month and I'm grateful for the experience.
