Had a great time staying here in Beppu, thankyou for being so flexible and welcoming:) The work hours were really great, as soon as you do everything you can finish early, sometimes it might only take about an hour so you really have the whole day to yourself still:)

Amazing place, the hosts super friendly and the works was proper easy, had tons of time to explore beppu and Kyushu!! Definitely recommend this place, kitchen was also nice and WiFi is fast. Only thing to be prepared for is: don't expect a luxury room, it's a hostel so the room you will be using is a little run down, (especially the toilets) sometimes you will have an occasional cockroach but they are quite chill and rarely show, don't leave any food in the room and you be golden! Also they provide a mosquito killer plug which helps a ton, there's lots of mosquitos in beppu!

I had a wonderful experience volunteering here! The guesthouse is a bit old but nothing that affected my stay. Being able to use the hostel everyday was definitely a highlight! The staff, the guests and the local community were incredibly kind and welcoming. The workload is also very reasonable, leaving plenty of free time to explore the Beppu and the surrounding area. I would definitely recommend this host to anyone looking for a chill and friendly atmosphere and great balance between volunteering and exploring the Kyushu region!

I truly recommend this place! The environment is chill; The job is easy and fast; There is an onsen to relax everyday; The volunteers' rooms are comfortable and spacious; The location is perfect; The owners are two very nice guys (Masa and Got); The guests are mostly Japanese, so you can practice the language all the time; The city is beautiful, surrounded by mountains and the sea. I'm glad I stayed for such a long time.

I had a wonderful time volunteering here! The hosts as well the regular guests at the hostel were incredibly friendly. The work load was easily manageable and usually takes 1-2.5hrs to finish, giving you time to yourself to explore the city and surrounding area. The volunteers also have their own dorm room away from guests. I would definitely recommend!

This was a really fun volunteer! The place is old and some things could be improved, but having an the hostel is amazing, the location is a 10, the host are really nice and Beppu is a beautiful place. The job is really easy and takes between 1-3 hours, so you can still have the whole day to organize your own thing! 100% recommended❤️🫰🏻

I stayed two weeks in Beppu, the work is very simple and fast so it allows you to have a lot of free time, the hostel is a few minutes away from the city centre and provides bicycles that you can use to move wherever you want between beaches and the hostel, great if you are looking for nature and chilling and relaxing time ! I really enjoyed here! Thank you Got and Masatoshi !

The experience was amazing. Work hours are short and efficient, leaving plenty of time each day to explore. This made a big difference compared to other places with late schedules. I also visited during the Hatto Fire Festival, which was one of the most fun experiences I've had overseas. Beppu feels underrated and has so much to offer, from onsens to the mountains and coast. 'Twas my first time visiting an the hostel, with some hesitation at first, but quickly became comfortable and even made friends there. Masa was an amazing host, very chill and gave great recommendations. Highly recommend!

The whole Beppu experience was amazing! Since the working hours are around 2-3 hours per day, it offers the time to fully explore the local gems, bath in many onsens (and the one in the accommodation itself! :)), hike in the mountains, take a bike alongside the sea (bikes from the accommodation! :)), get to know other volunteers and having fun together.
Got and Masa are very kind and helpful, not just in the terms of work.
Overall the experience was wholesome and I am very thankful for that! I highly recommend :)

The time in Beppu was enjoyable and relaxing. Not only there is an the hostel inside the accommodation but also plenty of beautiful and cheap the hostel around. There is a lot to discover and to do, also some mountains for hiking or taking the free bike from the accommodation to Oita or elsewhere. Everything you need, like supermarkets and restaurants, are close by in a big variety. The other volunteers have been all nice people which was fun to spend time with. Got and Masa, who are running the place, are both kind and helpful. Working hours have been respected, work was easy to do. Thank you!
