I had an great time at the Hostel I had a lot of fun and made many new friends. The work was pretty easy and fast to get into, always like agreed upon. The accomodation was very nice and cozy. There is a nice lounge area to sit around and do your own thing, or to meet and interact with the other travelers. The Team was very open and made sure that we felt comfotable and welcomed. Everybody was always nice and respectful. It is a great place if you like to meet many new people and go out and have fun. The staff will also help you with any question and give you great recommendations.

This hostel was amazing! The staff were super chill and friendly, making me feel right at home. They speak really good English and always made everyone feel part of the conversation, making the place super social and cozy. The location was very good and close to the city center. Additionally, the accommodation was very comfortable and had lots of space. The work is pretty easy, but having some hostel cleaning experience helps. They throw you into it, so try to learn and soak up advice from your coworkers in the first few days. Thank you so much to Takuro and the staff working there!

The Staff members were very welcoming, they care about their guests and provide them with an amazing stay. they made me feel like I was part of the team so I tried my best every time I could. The working hours were as agreed and the cleaning tasks too. I'm very grateful for this experience and opportunity.

I had such an amazing time here. The staff is so friendly and lovely, we went out quit a lot together and I will definitly miss them. As for the work it is more than doable and often we finished before the intended working hours. The hostel is really nice, the private rooms are really confortable, equiped with AC and with space for your stuff. It is also well located with almost every necessities within a 5 minutes walk, and even has a bento shop next door ! I highly recommend if you want to discover Osaka and its lively soul !
