The host was so friendly and flexible, even though we skipped breakfast to chase the best snow. Before our trip, she called us in Hong Kong to confirm our arrival details and ask if we needed help with things like lift passes, which made a great first impression. We only planned to eat dinner there once but went back for a second meal, one Western and one Japanese. The food was stunning, and you can really feel their love for local produce. Our three-bed room was comfortable, with cozy bedding and a decent amount of space by Japanese standards. The small dry room was enough for our gear. Appi Ski Resort was about a five-minute drive away, so catching the first lifts and coming back for a rest was easy.
