Thank you so much for this amazing opportunity! I really enjoyed my 4 weeks here and had such a great experience. I'm really glad I decided to do it, and I'm very grateful for everything. Definitely a great experience that I would recommend!

I stayed at the guest house for a month, and it was an incredibly memorable and joyful experience. I would highly recommend this place. It's located right in the heart of Seoul, making it very convenient to explore the city. Our host OG is kind, patient and caring. I can't find a better host. He prepared lots of food for us and took us to many great‑tasting restaurants. Daily work was really easy: tasks like vacuuming, mopping floors, and cleaning toilets and shower rooms could be finished quickly. The other partners I met were also very friendly. I really hope to come back again！

My 3 weeks volunteering at Jogno Stay really flew by. OG is a very kind and generous host, he even occasionally bought us breakfast even though it wasn't listed on WP. The work is very easy as well, consisting mainly of cleaning or reception duties for around 1–2 hours a day, and sometimes OG would help with the cleaning too. The dorm was cozy and never noisy. A great place to explore Seoul!🤩

This month flew by! Let's start with OG.
You won't find a kinder, more hardworking person. He's always there to help with any questions you might have.
The work: I was the only volunteer and worked between one and two hours per day. You vacuum, mop, and make sure everything is clean and tidy in the bathrooms & common area.
The room: you share a room with guests (women only), but it's comfy and never loud like a party hostel, so you can sleep peacefully.
I volunteered in many places in Seoul, but this is hands down the best one.
Thanks, OG, for the opportunity!

I love to stay here in the guest house, the owner OG is a very kind person. The work here is easier and calm. If you looking for a place cossy and in the center of Seoul, this place is perfect, you can go to everywhere and OG can help you with orientation about emblematic places. Thank you OG for everything 🙏🏻

It was my first experience with worldpackers. Og is nice and will help you with some task. You will not work more than 1.5/2 hours a day so it's not much and you will have all afternoon free. You will only work from 11 am till 12.30/1 pm. The hostel is nice with lots of place for your luggages. There is also a common place where you can watch tv and eat and chat with other travellers. If you have some questions you can ask me :)

This was my first worldpackers experience and I couldn't have been more lucky. OG is kind, caring, and overall a great person. No matter what I needed, he was there for me and would help me out. I felt comfortable from the very first minute. The hostel is really nice and has everything you need, and I especially liked the curtains in front of every bed for privacy. The work was manageable, and OG teaches you with a lot of patience and helps out when needed. I had a great time at Jongno Stay and would definitely recommend it:).

Very sociable and lovely lady Mayra. She is bringing happiness and smile. You can not understand what I mean but Mayra makes people get smile, too. I love her smile and I learn from her how to. I hope to meet her again. Lovely Mayra, be happy! See you later!

My experience working at this guesthouse was a very positive one, straight away I felt welcomed and the accommodation was very clean and organised. The work there is quite easy, after OG shows you what to do, you can go at your own pace and make your own routine with the cleaning. Any questions that I had were quickly answered by OG, he's always fast and happy to help whether that's with the cleaning work or with guests that come to you with questions and you are unsure about the answer. Although I worked by myself for the majority of my stay, I felt welcomed and comfortable overall!

Sorry for late comment. Saffron is a lovely and perfect person. Saff and I didn't go out together too much but she had her own schedule. I respect her style and I didn't want to interrupt her time. Anyway saff is very good person and I want to meet her again. She must be good person anywhere. Saff is the best!
Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
