    Adequate and served the purpose. Value isn't great, but competitive with other accomodations in area

    Liked : Good communal cooking and kitchen facilities available. Close parking. Big entry room available for ski boots, wet clothes and for drying laundry. The host was responsive to questions via WhatsApp.

    Disliked : The kitchen could be better organized. The kitchen and laundry/sink areas were a little messy and not cleaned well by, or after, previous guests. The room was heated with a kerosene heater that gave off some fumes - not bad, but noticeable. Would be nice to have instructions for use the clothes washer.

    Liked : The owners were really nice and friendly, dropping us off at the resorts that we wanted to go to and picking us up after. They also shared some great information on which terrain will be fun to explore. Overall, a pretty pleasant stay.

    Good for people who dont drive in the area

    Liked : Close the station. There are pick up services by the host. Easy to go to ski resort if you are not driving as the host can send you to the resort (15 mins)

    Disliked : There’s no private bathroom.

    Very good

    Liked : I had an amazing stay at Yamaeko. The host is super nice and made everything so easy for us. Every morning he drove us to the ski resort, and in the afternoon there was a ride back to the house — no stress at all about transportation.

    What I really loved was after skiing Every day, once we got back, everyone would sit together in the living room, talking, sharing the day. It felt super natural and comfortable, like get together with friends

    After skiing all day, the host took us to a nearby onsen. I feel super relaxing and exactly what you want after a long ski day
