The Freshwater

來二世谷滑雪挑了這間公寓式酒店，接待的員工非常熱情，以及退房時也樂於助我寄雪具袋至東京，並且安排接駁車帶我們到俱知安車站。雖然不是ski in&out，但是旁邊就有免費接駁車也是很方便！另外陽台就是天然冰箱很棒！最後這邊員工基本上都是說英文，不會英文的話可能會比較不方便一點哦！

Great location, close to restaurants, ski rental and ski area. Easy walk up for the station, would not be great with the ski equipment. Clean apartment and well supplied with all that you may need for a short or long stay. Easy check-in and check-out. Well recommended.

Great room, lots of space. Provide almost all necessity and appliance required. Right beside lawson. Right by the main road and center of hirafu. 10/10 will come again. Jordy is very friendly, recommended food places to us, and even provided transport service for us!

Place was clean, spacious and has plenty amenities like microwave, toaster, refrigerator etc. two towels per room. Price was reasonable too. The shared area has a nice TV and sofa to hang out. There’s also a TV in each room.

Stayed for a week in February in the Studio Apartment. Just right for a couple, small kitchen with microwave/oven, sink, fridge and appliances (no cooktop). OK for breakfast or food truck meals, but a bit small for cooking dinner. I would not expect to entertain guests here :) That’s OK since many restaurant choices around, but don’t forget to make reservations. Large locker for ski gear and washer/dryer/shower on the ground floor. Conveniently located, clean new-ish construction with elevator. Ski shops, restaurants, convenience stores and food trucks nearby. There was always parking space since most renters did not have a car. Walkable to the Hirafu lifts, although would be a bit long uphill if wearing ski boots. If you don’t have a car, inquire about the shuttle service. There is also a bus stop nearby to get you to Hanazono, Niseko Vil. and An’nupiri ski areas. Whether the staff at the front desk at The Maples or the maintenance/cleaning staff, very courteous and helpful.

Can’t say enough good things about this property. We rented an apartment and it gave us ample room to spread out and enjoy our time there for the week. The location was absolutely perfect. Close to grocery stores, restaurants, bars, onsens and the Grand hirafu ski resort. I would recommend reserving restaurants in advance of your stay otherwise you may not get in anywhere. Happened to us a few times.
