My time at the hostel was really great! Everyone was very friendly and kind, and I met a lot of nice people. The work was always a team effort, and everyone helped each other out, so we usually got everything done quite quickly. I also really liked the atmosphere at the guesthouse and felt very comfortable there. I had a really good time and enjoyed my stay. I would definitely recommend the hostel to others and would be happy to come back if I visit Korea again!

I had a great time at the hostel!! I met very nice people and made some good friends. Most of the time we finished about an hour earlier and if it was a lot of work David, the host, ordered drinks or food for us which was very nice. My work was mostly making the beds. At first you have to get used to it but it gets easier with time. All in all I had a great experience and would definitely come again ☺️

I had a really good time here ! The work was most of the time 2 hours/day and the place is so well located, u have easily transport anytime in the day and night ! The girls were very nice and I was glad to meet ppl in the same situation as me when I arrived. We are a room of 4 women, it is very tiny, without window , at the beginning I was afraid to feel uncomfortable but I was outside most of the time during the day so it was okay. If I had one “bad point” to say it's that the work is hard ! David is VERY conscientious about the work we are doing and it can be hard to handle it mentally

This was my first volunteering experience and I enjoyed it a lot! The schedule and the work are great, David the host is very nice, even when sometimes I had difficulties doing something he was always willing to help! You will have a shared bedroom and also some food and fresh water. The work is like 2-3 hours in the morning and then you have plenty of time to explore the city. It was a great experience, I recommend it
