"Some mold and dust build up in the rooms. Ski-in/ski-out was super convenient. Breakfast was pretty basic might recommend opting out. "

"The hotel was comfortable clean, great view of the mountains. Truly a ski in and out location. Ski lockers on basement floor, you put your skis on and ski down to the family lift, you can get your lift tickets there or online ahead of time. From that lift you can go up to the other lifts. Beginner runs here but with access, to red and black . We loved it would definitely return and recommend. Many of restaurants available in hotel but walking distance. Many rental shops also available nearby. "

"Close to the slopes and offer bus to the lifts. "

"Very clean hotel and staff were great. I stayed in the supreme pods which great but with a few exceptions. My main issue is that the matresses are soo hard, you may as well sleep on the floor. I had to buy a matress topper at DCM which was definitely worth it as it made it more tolerable. The other issue is noise, i could deal with nearby snoring etc but some people would make no effort to stay quiet and the floors are extremely loud. It is literally impossible to walk quietly down the hallway, even just in socks or slippers. Overall though, its definitely a good place to stay considering how much cheaper it is compared to staying in Hirafu, and the shuttles are great. "

"Very small room for 3 people with 3 suitcases, could barely move in the room, bathroom also very small. Cost of breakfast very expensive."

"Ski slope shuttles came every 15min and were great. Breakfast was good. Rooms were well designed for storage and very clean. Huge bonus was heated radiator in room for drying wet ski equipment. Ski equipment storage room for skis and boots was very warm and convenient on ground floor next to bus pickup. "

"Wonderful hotel with excellent, large well provisioned rooms. TVs connected to streaming services. True ski-in and out via magic carpet; helpful ski valet. Nice onsen, although indoor and smaller it was very private and not crowded. No convenience store on site to purchase basics but able to get drinks and make purchases at the bar. "

"The view was fantastic and the layout was perfect for winter sports."

"The room was spotless and spacious. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful. The hotel offered many amenities, including a shuttle to and from the mountain, arranging a ride to the airport, ski lockers and complimentary food upon arrival. Will absolutely book here again for our next holiday! "
