◆About our hostel
Guest house waya
“Starting new adventure”
Guest House Waya is a place where travelers from all over the world and locals can interact and connect. New encounters will make your journey richer and more enjoyable.
We aspire to be a lodging facility for travelers where the number of “people you want to meet again” increases.
◆When?
After 1st of April 2026
◆For how long?
Anywhere from 2 weeks to one month, minimum is two weeks, let us know if you would want to stay longer.
◆For what compensation?
We offer a place to sleep, a part of lunch fee each working day and plenty of Japanese practice.
Living room, kitchen, and shower spaces to be shared with guests。
◆Working schedule
11:00-16:00 (4.5hours, 30-min break): help for cleaning the hostel.
2 days off per week.
We will ask you to do the cleaning on days of guest checkouts. You will for sure have at least two days off a week, perhaps more. On days you do not work, we just ask you to clean the spaces you have used. Cleaning only takes a few hours in the morning, and you are free the rest of the day!
◆Other information
We accept Working Holiday Visas ONLY!
Unfortunately, even other visas that allow for some work cannot be accepted. This is due to the strict laws in Sapporo.
All staff can speak English so if you cannot speak Japanese, do not worry! We will be happy to help you improve your Japanese and share our culture with you if you wish. There are a lot of foreigners at our hostel so you can meet many people from all over the world and make new, amazing friends.
You can have a part time job outside of the hostel if you want.
