Tokyo is big but the hostel is the hostel. I befriended so many locals and internationals here. LJ itself is a simple place, but it is a convenient home with amazing staff and guests, sat within the biggest city in the world. If you can make a good time of that, then come to LJ. Work is standard, well organised and very well communicated. I became more comfortable and motivated with Japanese (and tidbits of every other language, it seemed). I encourage you to come spend a few months here.

I had a good experience volunteering at the hostel. The location is great, the staff is kind and welcoming, and the working hours are exactly as described. The tasks are simple and easy to handle. I recommend the hostel for volunteering. Arigatou gozaimasu!!!

The hostel has been a very fun experience:) the work is easy and you will end your shift very fast, even though sometimes it can be a the hostel bit physical. I didn't stayed in the hostel, but in a sharehouse the owner has 20 minutes away from LJ, and it was really good. The volunteers I met were great people and we had some much fun. The local staff is also very nice, even though we didn't hanged out many times. The owner wasn't around a lot and sometimes communicating with him could be tough, but he was nice. Also, now there's a manager, Yusuke, who's really kind! Overall I had a good time!

I really enjoyed my experience in the hostel ! I like this neighbourhood easy access to asakusa , Ueno , Akihabara . I was in sharehouse 15 min walk, a good way to learn about the Japanese culture. You got free meal or you can cook so you can save some money . (Sometime it's not possible because the kitchen is rented) tasks are easy , usually from 9-3pm but possible to finish earlier sometimes . If there too many bed an other staff will help. If you want to visit an other city you may have to swap shift if you want 3 days straight. I recommend if you wanna stay in Tokyo

I had a great time at the hostel. Location is perfect, I met some cool people, the food/drinks was also a pro. The sharehouse (which contains a women-only dorm) is about a 10 minute walk away. Staff consists of ~4 international and ~10 Japanese volunteers For cleaning staff, the hours are either 9-3 or 10-1, and it is a lot if you do it properly. Some of the staff members like to do things together on their days/evenings off, so it's nice because you can make some friends. It's a the hostel difficult if you're vegetarian, the pre cooked meals contain meat.
