The owner, the hostel is a very sweet, kind and open-hearted person. I had a lovely time at her guesthouse and i loved working for/with her. She was always very understanding and mindful of me. The central location is also ideal for sightseeing, without having to worry about the last train. I highly recommend her place and hope you'll love working there as much as i did.

Staying at the hostel's Guesthouse was a great time! the hostel, her friends, and the other volunteers too were fun and lovely people. The work itself is nice and leisurely, and the hostel will walk you through it with care, so don't worry. The guests too were great; I got to make some fun new friends here. The atmosphere of the hostel itself is pleasant, and the location is really convenient, with it being essentially a short walk away from areas like Dotonbori and Nipponbashi. If I go back to Osaka, I will definitely visit again!

Guesthouse Mii was one of my favourite volenteering experiences. Mii arranged day trips for us, threw delicious food parties and provides a healthy work environment.

The guests are all really nice and the hostel is very cozy and close to some amazing places to eat
