First of all, Mayumi is super kind and accommodating, it was lovely meeting her.
The work itself is clear, easy, and as I was there during the low season, we often would finish early.
The building and room are nice, clean, and the shower room is new.
The location is very convenient, being very close by foot to Dotonbori.
Overall my experience was really good, I would definitely recommend stay at the guesthouse :)

Work is very easy, fast to do, I had only 4 shifts per week 1 bed was under AC, so not comfy. I got lucky I got to move to another room with double bed, but right on top of traffic, and AC not working very well The arrangement of the hostel doen't make it a very social hostel Mayumi is nice & easy going, she made the roster every week and could arrange the days off I wanted, and she was flexible about my beginning and departure dates. She was maybe too cool..? She didn't check other volunteers'work, and it was very dirty... For sure the toilets and showers were not cleaned everyday

I had the best time at Guesthousethe hostel楽 thanks to Mayumi and all the other volunteers (I even extended my stay). I had a room of three very confortable, felt like my own place. The work was easy and varied + the location is great it's a 5mins walk downtown. I would definitely recommend it to anybody! Merci Mayumi!!

This has been my first volunteer experience with Worldpackers and it has been absolutely fantastic. Mayumi is a very kind and fair person to work for. The hours were very reasonable and I felt like I had plenty of free time to explore Osaka and nearby locations. I was working in the shop and hostel. The work has been very easy and Mayumi is very good at providing the work rota in advance. Whenever I needed a specific day off, she was always happy to accommodate this.
The team I've worked with have been so lovely and welcoming. People are also happy to swap shifts where needed. :)

My time at the hostel is a time that I will never forget, I've made so many friends, the work environment was so fun and peaceful, and Mayumi-san is the best boss I've ever had, she is so kind and helpful! Also the location of the hostel is perfect to go anywhere in Osaka! This the hostel feels like family and I would recommend it to anyone!

I had such a great time at Guesthouse the hostel! The host, Mayumi, is very kind and funny, the location is good (near main touristy places like Dotonbori and Namba + well-connected by public transport), and the team was the best!! The tasks are pretty easy, the hours are well-respected, and everyone is quite chill. Moreover, at the hostel you will meet people from all over the world! I will miss my time in Osaka, and everyone that made it so special ;))). Would totally recommend this place if you like to be in the middle of a bustling and vibrant city :)!

My time at Guesthousethe hostelwas amazing, I loved it and couldn't reccomend more. Mayumi-san was the sweetest and the team was the best! 🫶 The work time and tasks is respected, and are quite chill and simple. You have different shifts and sometimes work at the fabrique/antique shop that are not far from the hostel, which is a chill and a different experience. The location is good, close to main points like Namba and Dotonbori. Even tho Osaka can be a bit too much for someone who isn't a big city person, it can also be fun and exciting.
