The Experience

We are a calm and cozy hostel located in Busan, the second biggest city in Korea. It takes only 7 minutes on foot to reach Haeundae Beach, one of the most famous beaches in the country. Our hostel can host around 80 guests and has great access to public transportation (bus and subway). We are run by Danny (owner) and Chung-In (manager), plus a few staff members and usually 2–6 volunteers.

I had a very good experience with the hostel! The work was explained well and divided between volunteers well so you never felt too overwhelmed even on really busy days. The hostel was a nice environment and staff and volunteers really got on, they were very friendly. Getting to hang out in the lounge area with the other volunteers and guests was always fun. The other cleaners really helped organise and explain tasks. Overall it was a nice atmosphere with friendly people and access to the best beach in Busan :)

The host provided many things such as slippers, hairdryer, towels, shampoo,conditioner and body wash. Work was reasonable and we sometimes ended early

Volunteering at the hostel was amazing! The hostel is very pretty and the staff is really friendly & fun. The tasks are very easy (either houskeeping or breakfast shift). You have plenty of time to explore Busan:) I can highly recommend volunteering here!!!:)

I completely fell in love with Busan, it's such an incredible city! I'm honestly quite sad to be leaving. The volunteer experience here was amazing; the host team is super kind, the work is easy to learn, and the hours are totally fair. The hostel itself is cozy, stylish, and feels like home. The breakfast is great and sometimes there is some left which we can have for lunch or even dinner which helps a lot if you are on a budget, I'd love to come back one day, and I truly recommend this place to anyone!
