Myoko Akakura Ski-In Ski-Out Apartments 3 bedrooms sleeps up to 6 persons 1 private bath 1 private shower

Super central, hard to beat how close it was from everything, which made it really easy to ski in/out, take the kids to ski school, explore, shop, organize ski passes, rentals etc…. All within less than 3min walk. Spacious bedrooms, ability to cook our own meals. Within our budget

Humble amenities, don’t expect the comfort and privacy of hotels but it suited our set up and budget as a family. Pillows and futtons were uncomfortable (bring your own pillow if you can) which was the main downside, as a good night sleep helps enjoy the slopes more. The rumbling and noise of the trucks clearing the streets at 4.30am every night/morning didn’t help getting a restful night, but that’s also because it snowed more than 3.5 meters of snow over the 6 nights we were there…

The location was great for ski on ski off. We had small children so was great to be on the slopes within 20metre. Central to shops, rentals and restaurants.

The toilet was not fixed down and moved every time you sat on it. The furniture was home made out of wood and wooden pallets. The bathroom had no room for toiletries. The kitchen doubled as your bathroom. The room to store our ski gear was downstairs and next to a bar and open to the public so we were concerned about theft.

Mark is helpful when you need something. Location is excellent. Right next to Yodel lift. On the Main street of bars, restaurants and ski rental. Large 3 bedrooms. Nice walk in shower. Public parking right opposite.

1. Not much living area but you can hangout in one of the bedroom if need be. 2. The toilet could be more modern but nothing wrong with current one. 3. Pillows are small and very hard. So I would def upgrade that or bring your own like we did. 4. Room needs curtains as it’s very bright in the morning. 5. No washing machine facility. Closest one is 10 mins drive away.

Location. 20 metres from the lift. Ski hire shop next door.

No drying room. No boot or ski storage facilities. Third floor up narrow staircase. Basic apartment. No bathroom just a shower. No room to sit on the lavatory as wall is 1 foot length away from the wall. No vanity basin. Wash your teeth in the kitchenette sink. Rock hard pillows. Very thin futons to sleep on so very uncomfortable. This is a very basic apartment and not clearly advertised on your site. No pictures of the small kitchenette/ living area. No chairs just a bench and stools.

It was spacious, that’s it. Everything else was terrible

Many things were lacking or below standard - it had no curtains or blinds, no bathroom sink, the toilet was nearly unusable, it had a noisy hot water system servicing both apartments located within our kitchenette, the shower didn’t drain properly and some of the lights buzzed. We lasted for just one of the seven nights that I had prepaid, before moving to other Japanese-run accommodation (which was much more comfortable)

What a great reception from Mark at the train station. The ride in his big red truck won over the boys, even the big one! On arrival Mark helped with showing us the apartment with its facilities. We enjoyed having our own deep bath which took some warming up! Loved the coffee vending across the road! Skied down to our property and plenty of place to store our gear (not heated).

My only critique was that the apartment had really only been set up and still needed some perks like stools for at least 4, which we borrowed one from down stairs. The eastern toilet had been converted but was hard to fit a 6’4 male in!

Space is massive - full bathroom, toilet, dining area, 3x massive rooms. Best location, centre of the action. Unreal spot. Mark the host is a legend, loads of local knowledge, very accommodating helped us out heaps. I also recommend looking into his tours.

Mark was very helpful and answered every question I asked quickly. The location was super central and we got it fairly last minute with a big group so I'm very grateful for that. The property had all the basic necessities.

I'm a bit of a princess & it was my first tatami bed experience - I think I prefer my usual mattress and pillow (if recommend byo pillow). But all in all an amazing holiday and im greatful!
