Nice and kind staff. Easy going. Clean. Nice breakfast. I am vegetarian and I was a bit limited but made do. A lot of fish/meat dishes. Skiing: easy free shuttles from the hotel and back. They have cheaper lift tickets for sale at the hotel. Had a nice home cooked meal nearby. The only issue is most of the laundry machines were out of service and the one available took 4 hours and the clothes were still damp. So I would only hope that they fix the laundry.

나이든 한 직원을 제외하고 대부분 친절했다.역으로 픽업 나왔을때나 그분이 프론트 응대시에 불친절한 행동과 말투 때문에 불쾌했다. 만약 성격상 문제라면, 서비스업계가 부적절한 직업이고 적어도 고객이 불편함을 갖지 않도록 노력이라도 해야하는게 아닐까?!

Amazing

The hotel rooms are a little bit dated but it was very spacious and comfortable, especially after a long day on the slopes. The Onsen was beautiful with an outside area to watch the snowfall. It’s a convenient location with only 10 minute walk to all the restaurants and the free snow shuttles stop right outside the door.

不錯的滑雪旅館

很客氣服務很貼心,有台灣人與西方人接待員,和式房間很寬,早餐選擇不太多但是也足夠,用餐環境不錯。提供的滑雪用具乾燥室很好,雪具租借不貴但稍微老舊。溫泉小而美,開放時間僅至晚上11時,因為開放非住戶泡湯,常常太多人,露天風呂上午不開放。旅館地點安靜稍微偏僻,晚餐吃飯不方便,但是位居幾個滑雪場接駁車的首站,可確保有座位。
