Otaru was a cool town and a cool place to visit and ski vs the normal Niseko visits.
Felt really cramped. Rooms had no space to lay out luggage or hang up anything. Several just had a bed wall to wall. Beds were hard as a rock and there was no way to access the house with a car. We had to park a ways away and haul our bags and gear through the snow. Also had to pay for offsite parking which they told us the day we checked in.
