My review is of the Kokusai chair lift areas. Very disappointed and not pleasant. Not a place to sit down or take shelter if it’s snowing, barely a place to put your ski on a rack. You have to walk up a hills to drop kids off for ski school then the beginner chair lifts are 500m walk away in deep snow to Sakka chair lift. No lockers here, have to walk in ski boots! Very hard w kids.
