Unfortunately I had to leave early, due to personal reasons, therefore I just have a short insight. But if I could, I would have definitely stayed longer! The work was very relaxed and enjoyable, the team is friendly and the town is nice with a beach in walking distance. Despite that, the highlight has to be the building, with public and private the hostel as well as beautiful traditional Japanese architecture and a peaceful atmosphere. This is one of the nicest places one coud volunteer at!

I spent 3 months here and it was an amazing experience. The house is absolutely beautiful and has such a calm, peaceful atmosphere. The terrace and river view made every morning special. Ito is a small town, but it has everything you need and is perfect for people looking to slow down and enjoy a quieter lifestyle. Working hours were always respected and we often finished earlier than expected. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, even when I was bothering them at reception during their shifts (ごめん 😅). I felt very comfortable here and would highly recommend this place to anyone!

My experience at the hostel was absolutely fantastic. It's a wonderful place where you get the opportunity to truly slow down and really feel the quiet life in Japan. In addition, you have the chance to meet a number of truly amazing people.

The one-month stay at the hostel was a fantastic experience. It was truly unique to live and work in a 100-year-old bathhouse. Yukio and the rest of the staff are all very friendly and welcoming, and I feel honored to have been part of such a great team. The work is relatively simple once you get the hang of it, and you learn it quickly. The city of Ito is a very cozy and charming hot spring town with a beautiful view of the sea. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves quiet and peaceful surroundings and smaller towns.
