Akari-san is really nice and chill. All the tasks are equally organized for each shift and you have plenty of time to go out and tour. The hostel vibe is the best! also has a great location 2 min away from metro station. This was my first time in Japan and it was unforgettable thanks to the people I met here and the free time I had. Would totally recommend and can't wait to come back! Saludos desde Chile🇨🇱

My experience at the hostel, was amazing! Everyone welcomed me every well! I volunteered at the hostel a few months ago, and unfortunately I noticed this bad review... if you wanna go to the hostel and are worried, know that I volunteered with the guy who left a bad review, and I worked alone for SEVERAL days while he was at the hostel, and I saw him leaving the hostel countless times, while he was working, leaving the shift unsupervised.(ps: on his first day of volunteering, he left his partner WORKING ALONE while he was PLAYING CARDS with his friends) His review is extremely unfair and dishonest!
