It was a nice apartment, location was good, it was a 2 minute walk to Sakka ski lift, love the grocery runs, and free shuttle bus to get around if you don’t have a car. Darren (owner) and Anthony were super nice, picking us up and dropping us off at Hakuba Base Camp, and giving us the ins and outs of the place and places. Would definitely stay here again!
