Great location near Lake Towada. The best aspect of this hostel is the flexibility. You are totally free to cook your own food, wash clothes, etc. They have almost everything you can think of for just a small fee of around 100 yen. Everything is self-service which is very nice. They also have 350 yen bath tickets you can purchase for the very nice bath at the hotel right down the road.

Towadako Hostel is affordable price with 24 hrs. accessible facilities. The owners are very nice and caring, there were bikes free for guests which you can ride to the lake and explore around. My booking was the last available room, so it might be the old one with smell of dust. The Hostel area is large with a lot of rooms, and guests. I can see the hint of beauty of the place, but to be honest, it needs big cleaning and renovation and the place would be very nice again.

The dinner is kind of disappointing as all you get is just a pack of curry and a small box of rice that you microwave them yourself. Yet you can enjoy 24 hours breakfast with toasts, jams, orange juice and milk. There is a bug kitchen that you can cook for free with flavorings. Hot water supply is stable but not hot enough. It is a little bit far from the only bus station yet owner will provide shuttle services. On-sen ticket is cheap and seriously good, 350 Yen you can enjoy on-sen in TowadaSo. Owner is very helpful and nice. I feel like home. I will choose to come here again when I visit TowadaKo again. Oirase stream is unbelievably good.

Nice hostel
It's a place to sleep and run by a very nice older Japanese man. There are also cheap tickets to a very fancy onsen nearby. The surrounding area is very beautiful and the free bikes available are helpful to get to the gorge. Look at the weather before you go and pack accordingly.
