Run down hostel with false amenities

Hostel was not at the location provided in listing but 1.1 km away from the lake. Self-check in was fin but hostel was run down with many lights not working, cobwebs in hallways. Rooms were booked with private bathrooms but there was no private bathrooms. Bathrooms were communal and there was no shower just sinks with buckets. Sheets were clean but rooms had broken a/c, smelled of fumigation but there were still bugs, broken drawers and lights. It was the worst hostel I have stayed in. We booked three rooms across two reservations and one rooms was so bad that two people ended up sleeping in one room. Said there was free breakfast but it was only toast and coffee/tea. Do not recommend!

Dilapidated hostel that overcharged

Rooms are very basic and a lot of things are damaged and not working. We booked three rooms for three people and one was totally unserviceable so we ended up sharing one of the others. Rooms said they had private bathrooms but that was not the case. All rooms had to share a community toilet and there was only a Japanese washroom with no shower capability. No toiletries and no towels. Also map locations showed hostel along the lake but it was really over a 1km away up a slight hill. Feel this hostel misrepresented the rooms and location and will not be staying here again. There is another hostel called backpackers hostel that I would recommend over this run down option. It is closer to the lake and based on the way this hostel advertised, I actually had thought this hostel was backpackers hostel but it is not. Positives are: It was self checkin and they do offer bikes and moped for free use which is nice. I paid too much ($30) per person expecting private rooms and private bathroom and did not receive this. Lights did not work in two out of the three rooms. A/c was broken in one of the rooms. Power outlets were dangerous.

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.
