I spent 2 weeks in Hamayu Nagi and it was my first work experience! It was soo good. The managers were amazing and helpful and I made amazing friendships with my coworkers. I miss my beppu family but i'm sure anyone would love them just as much.

My experience here was amazing! I loved staying in beppu for a month and I would do it again in a heartbeat. The other workers are amazing as well and I made some great friendships. The work is easy and straightforward leaving you plenty of time to explore around.

I had a great time during my stay a this hostel! Work was super easy and you only worked a few hours a week which gives you a lot of free time to explore the town. The two managers we really nice and helpful if you had any questions:) The best part was all the new friends I got:) The other volunteer staff from around the world were so nice and we used to hang out, go out for dinner or explore the town together. Beppu is a great town if you love nature! You can do lots of hikes in the area, explore small villages around Beppu try different onsens, go fo r a bike ride or go to the beach:)

I stayed for a couple of months, and had a really good time. When I was asked for my preference of days off I asked to have multiple days in a row if possible. For the most part I was able to get this, which allowed me to visit every prefecture in Kyushu and even a couple of days in Ehime. In the kitchen I was also able to chat to travellers, including the other volunteers which there are usually about 5 of at a time. I also enjoyed taking a bath in the hostel before breakfast anytime I had work.

I really enjoyed my time at Onesenyado hamayu! I spent 3 weeks here and it was the perfect amount of time to explore what Beppu has to offer and some of Kyushu. Masatoshi and Got are both a pleasure to work with and I met some lovely people working here. I would say that because it is only 9 hours a week, it does take longer to meet people and it might seem a bit quiet in the beginning.

I enjoyed Beppu City by spending time before and after my 10am till 1pm shift exploring nature and visiting nearby malls and restaurants. I would use the communal bicycles, (The bicycles are surprisingly small for someone 5'10") and had a punctured tire during my first long ride. Masa didn't hesitate to make sure I received a replacement bike so I could continue riding that day. I feel the hosts cared about my well-being and were accommodating of my requests if I asked for any additional work supplies. Room 205 needs a lot of work to be livable, but thankfully, I only stayed in it short term.

The hours were respected and the work was as described. The host Masatoshi-san drove us to Usa-Jingu, which was really nice! However, parts of the guesthouse are in need of renovation and I felt uncomfortable with the standard of cleanliness. Together with other worldpackers I did my best to clean beyond the minimum requirements, but getting a worldpacker to help with renovation might be good. It was nice to have a private room (with air conditioner) and the hostel water was great. Overall, I don't recommend the experience for long term stay, as Beppu just doesn't have that much to offer.

Do you want to hang out with friends from all over the world and experience local culture as well? Then Hamayu is the perfect place for you Obviously, Beppu is the famous area for the hostel. I explored lots of great onsens here, including a secret the hostel located outside in nature. Also I met nice friends and we often went out together to do something fun here And both managers, Masa and Got, are super helpful and kind. The workload is not hard, which means you can have lots of time to do whatever you want. Having private room also great too. I appreciate all the experiences while I'm here

I had a good experience with Got and Masa-san at Hamayu the hostel. Weekly hours are respected and you have a lot of free time to do what you want, although the city does not offer many options. I had a single, comfortable room, so I could enjoy my time there. I thank the other volunteers who helped make that time really enjoyable 😄
