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!

I stayed around one month here , Takamatsu is a very calm and small city but you can find whatever you want, I enjoyed here , I used sometimes the kitchen, the kitchen has everything to cook and there is a big Market , I was cooking mostly so I felt like my house and also the chef's foods were very nice. Chizuru and other Japanese worker were really polite and kind , that's why I get very comfortable : I recommend here , I am happy with here :)

I had a great time at the hostel! Chizuru is an amazing host and it was really fun to go out with her. Work hours are well respected and the staff are really nice and always help with questions. We couldn't use the kitchen from 6-10 am and in the evenings, but that wasn't a problem for me as I had a simple breakfast and in the evening we got a great discount on the chef's dinner if we did the dishes afterwards. The only downside is, that it can sometimes take quite a while to do the dishes if there are many guests. But the food is amazing, I would definitely recommend it. Thanks Ryo and Chizuru!

I highly recommend the hostel to other prospective volunteers! It's the perfect place to practice Japanese, eat local food, and meet other travellers. But above all, it's the 思いやり from all the people here that really makes this place special. Thank you Chizuru-san, Ryo-san, and everyone else! Pro tip: Read 'Kafka on the Shore' by Haruki Murakami while you're here, it's largely set in Takamatsu!

This is my fourth World Packers, and I really really enjoyed my stay here! To be honest, if your looking for one of those World Packers where you try to hit a ton of tourist spots, and do crazy hikes in the morning or party's in the afternoon…you may find sleep and chillin downstairs as a closer option. But if you look you'll find some cool things, experiencing a realer life in Japan and meeting amazing people. The hosts are super kind and the system around their work is really good too.

I enjoyed a lot my volunteering in the hostel. All the staff is very kind. You can feel a family atmosphere once you come in. Chizurusan is the nicest, helpful and perfect host. She is always including you in the hostel's parties, introducing you to Japanese culture, giving you tips to explore Takamatsu and many more things. She makes your stay easy and unforgettable. The work is pretty easy. Basically is cleaning the hostel (making beds, laundry, cleaning bathrooms…). Everything is well explained. Have plenty of free time. Thank you for everything, you have a friend and home in Spain.

The hostel was great! Friendly and fun staff and other volunteers. The schedule is nice for exploring the surrounding area, 4 days on, 3 in a row off. There's lots to do close to takamatsu, but Takamatsu is pretty quiet. All the staff were fun and kind! They took us volunteers out to the local sites and had wonderful suggestions. It's a 60 bed hostel so it can be busy —bed making, washroom cleaning, laundry, and other cleaning tasks. Single volunteers shared a 4 person bed bed room. They accept couples and they would receive their own private room. Dinner was oishii and available at a discount.
