8/10 Very good

Super cute little hostel, though I’m sure it’d be way better in the summertime! We came in what was off-season (early April), so we basically had the place to ourselves. It was quiet, and very cold, and a lot of the businesses in the area weren’t quite open at regular hours yet, but we still enjoyed our time! It is a little far from any cities, so accessibility is slightly difficult without a car (there is one or two buses a day? or every other day I believe?), but we managed to rent a car and get around to other parts of Aomori easily enough. The staff were lovely. Ready to help us during their opening hours. Breakfast was provided and while small, is always appreciated as a traveller! They offer the areas specialty dish for dinner at a very affordable cost as well, we didn’t get the chance to try it but it always looked good when we’d walk by! There is a lovely onsen hotel right down the road that is very affordable, and, while simple, is essentially all you need for some relaxing.

本当に十和田湖が近くにあり、美しい景観でした。この宿に向かう道はどれも山道なので夜には霧が立ち込めますので運転には注意が必要です。

コスパが良い

大人3人、小学生2人、幼児2人の計7人で滞在。 シングルベッド4台でしたが十分でした。 民宿って感じです。建物は古いけど不潔ではないです。 朝食(食パン、ゆで卵、コーンフレーク)も付いて1万円はかなりコスパよし！

素泊まりしたい方には相当コスパが良い。 料理ができる環境もあり、お風呂、シャワー設備もあり。 歩いて数分の旅館の大浴場も大人500円で利用できる。 無料の朝食、パン、ゆで卵、牛乳、コーヒー、シリアルも、食堂でゆっくりといただけます。

出迎えしてくれたおばあさんが話しやすい感じの人で良かった。近くにお店は木村ストアしかなく夜食は到着する前に購入しておいた方が良いです。宿泊料金に対してお得感がとてもありました。

値段がとても安いのが1番の魅力。館内は清潔で、部屋の中も清潔だった。しかし、布団に寝たら、次の日から背中が痒く、赤いつぶも出たので、ダニ対策がないと思う。

老闆熱情和善，略通英文，樂於解決住客的問題，環境整潔。有提供炊具可自炊，也有提供付費晚餐，早上有免費的簡單早餐。女生廁所有四五間，但浴室只有二間。

價格便宜，附近沒有餐廳要宿舍提供，要同其他放客同房，床鋪舒適，廁所有少許臭，近JR巴士總站，這旅館對我來說不錯

方便便宜的好選擇

老闆非常熱情仔細說明，也很率性，除了廚房的廚具不多，碗盤多是塑膠外，其他都很滿意

如果不想入住貴森森的觀光溫泉飯店，那麼背包客棧是選項之一。乾淨、便宜是大優點。只是所包含的早餐只有吐司，沒有其他選擇，晚餐沒有加購，所以無從評價。
