Ryota is truly an amazing host, to say the least. I originally stayed at his hostel as I was travelling through new places in Japan and came across his guesthouse as I went to Okinawa. I was most lucky to have made that choice, and I was instantly moved by how nice and simple he was with all of his guests. His location is musician-oriented, so as a guitar player myself, I made many jam sessions with him and other people enjoying time at his place. The workload is not demanding in any way, breakfast is included, every day is an opportunity to make a great acquaintance. どうもありがとうごいました！

Ryota is one of my favourite people in Japan and the hostel has to be the best hostel in the country. If you're a musician, this place is paradise, and even if you're not, the vives here are fantastic, the guests are all super kind and the environment makes socializing very easy! Ryota's hospitality is on another level and he makes everyone immediately feel like they're at a home away from home. The work is light and flexible, and easy to do even if you are sick or injured like I was for most of my stay on Okinawa. All in all, would very highly recommend!

I really enjoyed my stay at Ryota-san's hostel!! The work was easy and I always finished in time. The hostel itself was so cozy and it felt like we all were a big family. It was also a really fun environment to work in since everyone was so talented in musics so people would be singing and playing instruments The owner Ryota was really kind and helped me improve my japanese! He also made the best breakfasts!! Sadly I had to leave earlier than expected but I'd love to come back in the future and visit the hostel, and I really recommend it to everyone!!!

I had the absolute best time at the hostel! Ryota was the best host I could've possibly wished for and treated everyone with such kindness! It felt like a home away from home seriously! And his breakfast is absolutely amazing! If you're a musician, this hostel is the place to go as a volunteer! We had such a blast making the hostel and had so many jam sessions with a bunch of different guests and as a singer I loved it! If you're looking for a place with authenticity, fun and kindness, this is the place to go, I can guarantee you!!
