A wonderful experience; the balance of work holidays fills me with fulfillment every day. I met the Korean boss, travelers from various countries, and of course, my colleagues here. We have different cultures but still give each other the greatest love. Working here will improve your English, Korean, social skills, and problem-solving abilities. If you're looking for a volunteer place to stay in Seoul, this is a good option. I assure you this will be an unforgettable journey of my life.

She was not just a staff member here, but truly one of our best family members. Always bright, positive, and easy to be around, she brought good energy into the house every single day. Even during busy or challenging moments, she stayed calm, kind, and supportive to everyone around them.
What stood out the most was her openness — different cultures, different people, different situations, none of that was a problem. She was truly one of our family. : )

My stay at the guest house was one that was initially very mixed but I learned and adapted over time. Shrek was amazing and helped me every step of the way through my stay here. He was a very understanding person and tries his best to make your stay here one you would never forget. I really liked the vibe here, and I got to know a lot of guests and staff here and I made a lot of friends and created a lot of new experiences that I would not have been able to recreate at home. I was able to experience the city of Seoul and explore many monuments during my stay here :)

Best hostel ever!! Staff is friendly, amenities are plentiful, cleanliness is top notch, very convenient location, and I can't forget to mention the heated floors in the deluxe rooms. Can't recommend enough. If you're considering at all, definitely stay here!

I had a good stay at the guest house and wish I could have stayed longer. Unfortunately I already have to leave after 1 month, nevertheless I would recommend this place for people that are looking for a place to stay in Seoul in a pretty good location. Work starts from 10:30 and goes until latest 3pm. But mostly you will finish earlier and the work is really not that hard. Food is also provided, including meat and vegetables, which is quite good.

I wouldn't recommend going there! Me and another volunteer left after 3 weeks. The room is tiny, overcrowded, and poorly maintained, with inconsistent heating and a window that won't close properly. The bathroom is shared, and there's often no hot water. Food is very basic. I was overworked, doing double shifts plus overtime, while guests were often drunk and messy. The boss was dismissive and pressured people into leaving good reviews. When I quit, he insulted me and kicked me out. Working conditions vs how much you get in return are not worth it. Character limit so text me for more details

She only completed the training but never actually worked.
We always strive to create a comfortable environment and atmosphere for everyone.
If anyone would like to speak with our current staff, who are happily working with us, feel free to reach out anytime, and we will gladly introduce you. Thank you. : )
