Most people have the impression that Japan is expensive. But with a little investigation you can get around for a very reasonable amount of money.
Instead of staying at the big hotels (For $200-$300 a night) The first few days in Tokyo we stayed at Hotel Trettio. The price was great (around $75.00 a night). Although, it was tough to find since it was tucked away behind several alleyways! (There are very few street signs in Japan so you have to get around via landmarks)
To get there you have to find this temple:

Then you make a right down a little alley:
Follow this alley around a few turns like this:
The staircase to the hotel: (we climbed a LOT of stairs carrying our luggage)(Had to steal this photo from the web cuz i forgot to take a pic of this myself!)
Here's the hotel. It is really does seem out of place here if you compare to the other photos above:
(Stole this photo too!)
Inside things were really old fashioned. Take a look at the Key that they gave us. Apparently this was the only key, because we had to return it to the front desk everytime we stepped out:
Each room came with a toothbrush and a Razor. I couldn't help but laugh at the caption below. "Have a good shaving for your fresh life!". My life is much freshened after using this razor!

I wouldn't feel comfortable giving them my room key everytime I left. What if they go into your room and take your stuff? Or worst...dance in your underwear and put them back. Eewww!
Were the rooms clean? I'd really like to know how that razor would make my legs and bikini line feel...FRESH??? mmmmmm!!!
Hey 'Nessa - you know that at all hotels they have another key they use to get into your room to clean it and stuff right?
The only difference here is that they dont have the spare key so you have to return your key.
Lolllllll, dance in your underwear and put them back HAHhahahah oh the image of that....
Flat coke - The rooms are immaculately clean. The Japanese are very serious with the quality of things, and you'll see that in some of the other things i'll post.
Hmmmm..... Fresh Bikini Lines..........
This is great info to know.
