Volunteering here is the best ! Kumi and Chris are super nice and everyone from the staff at the cafe downsatir are super lovely as well so you should defo go hang out there :) Work is as presented - you'll do reception which is great to connect with travellers and also practice your japanese with the japanese guests. Matsumoto is a great city and a good base if you like to hike. I would recommend it without hesitation if I could, I would volunteer here again.

The guest house was an amazing stay! Chris and Kumi are both incredibly friendly, I felt welcomed from the moment I arrived. All the cafe staff are absolutely lovely as well, and they make delicious drinks so definitely take the time to visit the cafe! The staff accommodation is separate from guest accommodation so you have privacy, and the beds are super comfortable. The location is convenient to everything and really close to Matsumoto castle. I highly recommend volunteering here, I would absolutely stay here again!

I stayed at the guest house in May. The work is really easy and fun. People are easy to get along with and sharing experiences is always a must ! The Guesthouse is so beautiful and clean. There are a lot of things to do in Matsumoto. Everything is easy to access (by train, bus or by bike). Chris and his family were really kind with me and always around if you encounter difficulties during work. We did a lot of nice things together (going to the restaurant, barbecue or playing Mario kart) Thanks for this great experience ! It was a real pleasure to come and meet everyone !

An amazing experience for me! Chris and Kumi are incredibly welcoming, kind, and caring, and the same goes for the cafe staff! I had a wonderful stay in Matsumoto and I highly recommend staying at the guest house, whether as a guest or a volunteer. The work is easy and gives you the chance to meet new people. If you enjoy mountains, jazz concerts, meeting new people, and sipping delicious drinks, this is the place to be!
