I had such a great time here, I was sad to leave haha. The host did a really good job at making sure the work was manageable, providing a comfortable to stay, and is a very kind person in general! The area is also full of cafes, restaurants, and things to do. I always had a new place to explore. ๐Ÿ˜„

We had an excellent experience with Dongwon. The work was very easy, and the longest we ever worked was about 1 hour and 30 minutes. My boyfriend Javier and I stayed together, and he allowed us to work as a team so we could finish faster and have more time to explore Seoul. We also felt welcome from the very first minute :) This was our first volunteering experience, and we couldn't have chosen a better place, we absolutely loved it. The room was heated and we had our own space, which we really appreciated as well. Thank you so much, Dongwon! We hope to see you again soon ๐Ÿ˜

I really enjoyed my experience with Won, the host. Everything was straightforward and organized. The most I worked in a day was about 3 hours, which left plenty of time to explore. The location is amazing three huge malls around the corner also close to amazing restaurants plus lots of food and shops. Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone considering it.

Working at the hostel was a great experience overall. Having a space to myself was a really big plus, and the work was fairly easy if you like cleaning, or at least bear it lol. The amount of work can vary from about 1-3 hours daily, with the rest of the time to yourself. The job is pretty straightforward as well, and you can get the hang of it fairly quick. The location of the inn is nice as well since it's a short walk from Yeongdeungpo Station which can connect you a great deal of Seoul. The area has some good restaurants and things to do as well, plus being next to a huge mall.
