When I worked there, there were two volunteers including myself, and both of us had our own private rooms. On weekends, the host bought us meals, and the work only took about two hours a day. The location is very good, and you can meet a variety of travelers, not just Koreans. The tasks mostly consisted of changing duvet covers, cleaning the floors, and cleaning the bathrooms. For tougher tasks like unclogging toilets, the host took care of them.

I had a really great experience here. The work was very easy — only about 2 hours per day, with 2 days off each week, which gave me plenty of free time to relax and explore. The host was always attentive, helpful, and easy to talk to. They made sure everyone felt comfortable and supported. There were also events at the restaurant, which created nice opportunities to connect with people and enjoy the atmosphere. If you stay long enough, there is even the possibility of getting a private room, which is a big plus. I recommend this place for sure !

Best place in Korea for volunteering! I highly, highly recommend staying here. The owner is incredibly warm-hearted, kind, and always caring. The work is super light — only about 2 hours a day, and most days we finish even earlier. On some days, if there's no check-in or check-out, we even get an extra day off! He also orders food for us every weekend, which makes it feel even more like home. The location is perfect. It's in Itaewon, but not in the crowded or noisy area — it's in a calm, chill part of the neighborhood, so you get the best of both worlds. I loved my time in here !
