The volunteering experience was super comfortable. The work was just like in any other place—work. The food was amazing, I loved everything. The managers are very kind. I loved Korea and I hope to come back soon.

I stayed at the hostel jongro for over a month and honestly I loved the experience. The vibe was friendly, the cleaning tasks were clear, as agreed and easy to follow, teamwork is important and the key for an easy work so communication was always smooth. Now the important part, the team is really the best, they are always willing to help, and the place has such a warm, welcoming energy. I learned a lot, met AMAZING people, and left feeling really happy and with a full heart. Thanks again Manager for being the best, im already looking forward to go back to the best hostel!! ❤️

The location is great, in the middle of Myeongdong. The hostel is comfortable, I was lucky to stay in the guests room. The manager HyeonDu is one of the kindest, sweetest, and most caring people I've met. The work is fine, usually one or two hours a day. Breakfast is simple, but they help you to get something extra. I'd definitely recommend it!

I had a great time during my time at the hostel hotel in myeongdong, everything was amazing and thanks to Hyeon Du, the manager, i felt home, super welcomed and as if we were all family! I'm missing everything about it :'( Can't wait to see you again hehe. As for the work everything was veeery easy, nothing complicated at all and Hyeon Du is always available if you need anything be it related to work or personal stuff. We had to change the beds, clean the kitchen&lobby and clean the bathrooms, it took us just 2h then we would be free for the day. Deffo recommend this host as a 1st experience!

I can't put into words what this experience meant to me!The work was as described in the position, always done as a team, well-organized schedule, great food and accommodation. But what truly made it special were the people.I worked at Jongno branch (great loc btw), King Kong is a sweet manager, attentive, funny and taugth me Korean. Tati and Fatima are two amazing leaders, full of motivation, always caring, supportive, inspiring me with their strength and kindness.They became family to me.I'm leaving SK with a full heart, grateful for every moment, connection, and all the growth I've gained❤

You really worked hard in everything and cleaned everything with responsibility. There was a huge impact on the hotel, and your positive energy affected everyone. Unfortunately, you have to leave, but we will not forget you. Of course, if you want to work in a hotel again, we will always wait for you. Thank you so much and I hope everything you do is full of happy things. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. It is an honor for me to meet you.
