I loved my time at the hostel! The staff were all incredibly kind and made a genuine effort to get to know everyone, which made the experience feel truly welcoming. I met many wonderful people (staff, fellow volunteers, and hostel guests) and thoroughly enjoyed experiencing the local culture in a smaller part of Japan. The work could be a bit challenging at times, mostly because of the heat and the stairs, but everything else about the experience more than made up for it. I'd recommend it to anyone!

I'm so happy I got to stay and work at the hostel. The people are all so friendly and kind. They invited us volunteer to join them for a lot of stuff so we also got to see the local part of Japan. There's literally no pressure with the work as long as u do what should be done. I thought the work was pretty challenging but it was all because of the stairs (there's 5 floors) and working in the heat. I'd recommend anyone to stay here!

I absolutely loved my time here, from going out with the crew to cleaning days or even just chatting with the staff, Chizuru, Maki, Tamae, Hiro, Yasu and everyone were the absolute best! Enjoyed my time with the volunteers and guests too, always going out with new people meeting locals, practicing speaking Japanese, relaxing in the group space or eating Ryo's delicious dinner and everything in between, couldn't ask for a better experience and i will be back! i love the hostel

Volunteering at the hostel was fun! The work could be tiring at times, but the days off made up for it. The staff was friendly, and so were the other volunteers.

Chizuru was an excellent host. Herself and all the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The hours and work expectations were as described and we often finished early if all tasks were complete. The hostel was in a good location and I enjoyed my time in Takamatsu.

I'm going to miss this place! I had an amazing experience and felt right at home. Staff is friendly and social, and I met many wonderful volunteers who have become close friends. The dorm I stayed in was comfy for my long stay.One small point for improvement: I noticed some staff members weren't as productive as the volunteers. During cleaning shifts, I often felt like I had to pick up the slack when paired with certain staff. That said, the workload is manageable, so it wasn't a huge issue for me. With three days off each week, it's a great balance of work and free time.Definitely recommend!

I stayed at the hostel for a month, and it was an amazing experience! Chizuru and the staff are incredibly kind and always ready to help. The well-organized schedule allows you to plan trips easily, and the work is fair, with hours respected (though laundry can sometimes take a bit longer). The dorms are spacious and comfortable, making for a pleasant stay. Plus, Takamatsu is a calm and laid-back city, perfect as a base for exploring the area. I highly recommend this position to anyone!

It was the best volunteer work I've ever done! All the staff were welcoming, polite, cheerful and transparent about the tasks. The tasks were to tidy up the hostel beds and do some general cleaning, and the hours were very flexible. There was plenty of time to explore the city of Takamtsu. Many thanks to Chizuru and all the staff for the happy days we spent together. I will miss you all. I definitely recommend the hostel.

Staying at the hostel was one of the best volunteers places I ever had after travelling the World with Worldpackers and staying in 15 different places. I had really great time there and I will never forget the people and time together. The host Chizuru is very kind and is a lovely person. Also, the hostel is very well located in the city and you can have free time to explore Japan in your days off. I really recommend this place!
