Hi! Thank you so much for always watching my videos! Yes, I definitely agree with you! Itoshima is a good place to explore as it offers a variety of things to enjoy. And it is very near Fukuoka so it is really a good option for a day trip. I hope you are enjoying your weekend! :)

Hi Mishu! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, yes, you can just choose any vacant locker for your luggage. You can also choose which type you want - the manual lock and key type, or the one where you can use your IC card to lock and unlock it. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Hi! Thank you for watching my videos! With regards to your query, as mentioned in your other post, I personally found the bed in this hotel comfortable enough. It may not be the best but I had a good sleep and I didn't find the bed hard or difficult to sleep on. But yeah, it all boils down to one's personal preference too. Some may find the beds firm, but others may see them as good enough. Hope this information helps. :)

Hi! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, I think it is just a matter of personal preference. Some may see the beds as firm but others may find them comfortable enough. Based from my own experiences in several APA hotels across Japan, the beds are comfortable enough and comparable to beds of other business hotels. I also know a lot of friends (and family) who are regular guests of APA hotels and I have never heard of any complaints from them pertaining to the beds. So yeah, as I have said, I guess it is really just a matter of personal preference. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! :)

Hi Alyce! Thank you for watching my video and for giving such positive feedback! I really appreciate it! With regards to your query, yes, the hotel has washers and dryers where you could do your laundry. Hotel guests can use them, with a minimal fee per load. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! Have a great weekend! :)

Hi Carol! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your queries, Nankai Namba station is just a 3-min walk from the hotel. It is just almost diagonally across the hotel so you would have no problems in walking to the hotel even with luggages. You can take the Rapi:t Limited Express train from Kansai Airport to Nankai Namba station. There are elevators and escalators there so it would just be easy even with luggages. As for the rooms, the size of the room would depend on the type of room you have booked. It may be tight but I think you can still open a 28-inch luggage by the doorway. You just have to make some adjustments in your movements, like if the luggage is open, then naturally, you cannot use the door to go in and out of the room. You can also open your luggage with one side resting on the wall (L-shape) to save some floor space. I hope I was able to answer your queries and help you in my own small way. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Tq for your informations. Ya, I have subscribed your channel

Hi Bungfai! Thank you for watching my video! And thank you for the information on low-cost buses. I actually have 2 videos on low-cost buses which you may also want to check out. Here are the links for your easy reference. ua-cam.com/video/Xed5NsMS34g/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/uZGs4oAwn0Q/v-deo.html For more useful travel videos, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel in case you haven't.

Hi! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, I am not sure how much their monthly rate is, but I guess they should have discounted rates if you are going to stay for like a month or so. You may email them directly indicating the possible dates you plan to stay, as rates are also dependent on the dates/season. For easy reference, here is their email address: reservations.osaka@frasershospitality.com As for other serviced apartments, you may want to check Hotel Mystays, Mimaru Apartment Hotel or Citadines Namba Osaka, although I haven't tried staying in them yet. I hope I was able to help you in my own small way. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again!

Hi Yats! Thank you for watching my video and for giving such positive feedback! I am happy to know that my video is helping you plan your trip to Japan. With regards to your query, yes, the amenities are provided to hotel guests at no extra cost. You may get as many as you need during your stay. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Hi Anders! Thank you so much for watching my video and for giving such positive feedback! I really appreciate it! Yes, I definitely enjoyed my 2-night stay in the hotel. If money was not a concern, I would have wanted to stay longer. I loved the room, the facilities, the breakfast, and the overall luxurious feel of the whole hotel. But yes, reading your comment, you are probably right too to a certain extent with regards to the vibe of the room. Or maybe it was the way I took the videos? Or would a soft background music probably helped? But just the same, I am happy to know that you still liked my video.

@@wheretonext1190 I have stayed in many 5 Star hotels in Asia and elsewhere (and in a few not so good hotels as well🙂) The room is only one aspect of the experience. Staff, spa, pool, lounge, eating opportunities, location, the ability of the hotel to deal with unexpected "bumps" and problems..are also important. But hey, despite my remarks. This looked great👍.

Hi again Anders! Yes, I definitely agree with you. More than the room itself, I actually find the kind of service offered by the hotel staff more important. Not that the quality of the room is secondary of course, but it really makes a lot of difference if you are treated well during your stay. The reviews on service and location have always been my top considerations. But yeah, thank you so much again for your very kind words. I don't really consider myself as a "professional youtuber" as I only started my channel more to document my personal travel experiences. But reading most of the comments, I feel really happy now that I am able to help fellow travelers in my own small way. Thank you for your support! :)

Hi! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, I am guessing that you are referring to Dotonbori Hotel. Personally, during our stay, the hotel's cleanliness was satisfactory. I just figured that it could still be improved because some parts of the carpets were stained, and some hidden corners of the room were dusty. For guests who are not so particular with such details, I guess it should be ok. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Hi! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, 100 yen shops like Daiso, Seria and even 3 Coins, Threeppy and Standard Products have branches all over Japan. In fact, in major cities like Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto, you can often find them close to each other in shopping districts, shopping streets and residential areas. For this particular video, I went to Ginza in Tokyo. The building of Uniqlo Ginza located in Marronnier Gate Ginza 2 has branches of Daiso, Threepy and Standard Products in one floor. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

@wheretonext1190 I love Seria, Daiso & 3 Coins

Same here! So many useful finds!

Hi Cecil! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, unfortunately no, the hotel does not have a 12-hr stay. You can still check-in early morning though. To be sure, just email and inform the hotel in advance that you are checking-in the next day already. The cost would still be for a one-night stay though. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! I hope you are having a nice day! :)

Hi Chris! Thank you for watching my video! I hope you also enjoy your stay in this hotel in November. For more hotel and other useful travel videos, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel in case you haven't. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Hi Linda! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, I think you can try Swissotel Nankai Osaka. I haven't stayed in that hotel but I know that they have an indoor pool and a gym as well. The location is also great as it sits right in Namba station. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Hi Amirna! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your queries, hotel guests can use the microwave oven and iron for free. For the iron, you just need to return it back after using. As for the free drinks, there are plastic cups available which you can bring back to your room. For the breakfast, I am not really sure if it is Muslim friendly, but I am sure you can find dishes there that you can eat. Unfortunately though, I don't think the hotel allows using personal food containers for refills. I hope I was able to answer your queries. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Hi Tammy! Thank you for watching my video and for giving such positive feedback! I really appreciate it! With regards to your query, I did not use the hotel's luggage shipping system or Taqbin during our stay in this particular Sotetsu Fresa Inn hotel, but I have used it several times in other hotels and other Sotetsu Fresa Inns. Most hotels in Japan offer this kind of shipping service and so I am sure that this Sotetsu Fresa Inn Osaka-Namba has it as well. You just need to email both the originating hotel and the receiving hotel to confirm that they are able to ship/receive your luggage and that they will receive your payment as well when they ship. This is so because I had one experience where the hotel was willing to ship my luggage but they don't receive payments and so I had to make the payment via 7-11. Incidentally, most convenience stores like 7-11, Family Mart and Lawson can also ship luggages within Japan. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Thank you for your support as always! 😊

Thank you so much Mark! I really appreciate your support! 😊

Same here! Yum! 😋

Hi Ely! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, unfortunately no, they don't have fees for other services like extra luggage. But if you want, you can try and explain your case at the ticket counter and maybe, just maybe, they could allow you to have 2 bags stored under the bus, especially if the bus is not full. I have heard cases like that where they were kind enough to accommodate such requests, and so you might probably be able to do that as well. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! Have fun in Japan! :)

@@wheretonext1190 thank you <3

they are increading a lot and most probably will be at their peak for at least many months in 2025 (Osaka Expo)...

Hi Shawn! Nice to hear from you again! I hope you are doing well. And thank you for watching one of my videos again. With regards to your query, summer is actually a lean season when it comes to tourists visiting Japan, so hotel rates should ideally be slightly lower during summer. That being said though, and considering the drop of Japanese yen against USD, yes, hotel rates seem to be increasing. Gone are the days when you can easily find $70 rooms in good areas. I guess the demand plays a big factor too, with the recent influx of tourists. But yeah, if you are basing it on the value of USD these days vs JPY, things can still be really cheap in Japan.

@@wheretonext1190 Thank you! And I hope you are doing well. I like your videos but I hope the over tourism passes and the yen gets better for Japan. I am concerned about life for the Japanese. Best to you always.

Thank you so much Shawn for the very kind words. Yes, I am doing well and I am happy to know that you like my videos. And I also agree with you with the over tourism. I guess this is still a post-pandemic effect where tourists are still trying to make up for the lost travel time during covid. But it is heartwarming to hear about your concern for the Japanese. I wish you the best as well. :)

Hi Axios! Nice to hear from you again! I hope you are doing well! Thank you for watching my video again and for giving such positive feedback! With regards to finding an $82 room, I remember staying there on a Monday night which is probably why the rate was slightly cheaper. As you know, room rates really vary depending on the day you are staying. Weekend rates can be very expensive, sometimes even more than double the normal rate. Reading your comment, I tried to randomly check the room rates of this hotel via Agoda and I found $85 rooms for 30-31July and 5-6Aug. For 14-15Aug, I found an $89 room. I guess it pretty much depends on luck as well, wishing that your travel dates fall on weekdays with lower rates. It also helps to book way ahead while rates are still relatively low and just choose one with a free cancellation option so that you can just easily cancel if and when you find a better option. Hope this helps Axios! Thanks again! :)

Hi Linda! Thank you for watching my video and for appreciating my work! I am happy to know that my video is helping you plan your trip to Tokyo. With regards to your query, for Japanese onsens or hot springs, you cannot actually wear anything. Japanese onsens are enjoyed naked. Swimsuits or underwear are not allowed. There are separate facilities for men and women if this helps. They also have lockers to store your clothes. If you feel conscious, especially for first-timers, you may cover yourself with the small onsen towel provided, before entering the water. Just place the small towel nearby so that when you get out of the water, you can still cover yourself if you still feel conscious. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Hi RJ! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, yes, you can bring with you a backpack or small bag (no wheels) inside the bus. The 2 checked-in pieces refer to the big luggages you can store under the bus. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

@@wheretonext1190 yep, answered perfectly, was the information i was hoping to hear

@@wheretonext1190 sorry to bother you with another question but i should be ready to leave the airport at 20:00 do they still run the airport limosuines at that hour?

Hi again RJ! The airport limousine buses from Narita airport actually have several routes. It all depends on your final destination in Shinjuku. For limousine buses going to the Kabukicho area, the last bus departs Narita Airport Terminal 3 at 7:30pm. However, if your final destination is another area in Shinjuku, you can still take the limousine bus which runs up to 10:55pm. Here is the link of the timetable for your easy reference. Hope this helps in planning your trip. www.limousinebus.co.jp/guide/en/timetable/

Hi! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, most onsens or public baths in Japan do now allow people with tattoos. The Japanese taboo toward tattoos stems from their association with members of Japanese organized crime. Gangsters in Japan are typically heavily tattooed and so this is the reason why the Japanese, mostly the older ones, do not want to be "associated" with tattooed guests. But in the recent years, more and more public baths are already allowing tattooed guests to use their onsen. For those with smaller tattoos, some even cover them with bandage strips so as not to attract attention. But yes, if you have bigger tattoos and want to use the public baths, you can just probably search for public baths or private hotels which allow tattooed guests. Or better yet, if you have the extra budget, there are also hotel rooms and Japanese inns (ryokan) with private hot spring baths. I hope I was able to answer your query.

Hi! Thank you so much for watching my video and for giving such valuable insights! I really appreciate it! I am sure other travellers would find your feedback very useful too! Yes, I agree with you. Most rooms in budget business hotels in Japan are really small where even opening a big luggage would be a challenge. But yeah, as you said, it is still a good option for those travelling on a budget. The location is really nice especially if you want to be in the center of Shinjuku's happening place. There are a lot of food options and many shops to explore too. And as you said, there are other hotel options in the area which are more spacious and would be suited for travellers who have a bigger budget. For more useful travel videos, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel in case you haven't. Thank you so much again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Hi Suzy! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, unfortunately, there is no low-cost bus running from Narita airport to Kawaguchiko, but bus companies like Willer have scheduled trips running that route.

Hi Jean! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, we were at Shibuya Sky then a bit early, I think around 3pm, because that was the only time slot available closest to the sunset, when we booked our tickets. Usually, people want to be there before sunset to see the beautiful Tokyo skyline in the evening. Tickets for those time slots are the first to be sold out though, and so if you also want to see the sunset and want to come late afternoon, you need to book your tickets online much, much earlier. Otherwise, you can also book an earlier slot like what we did, when there were also less people still, and then just wait there until sunset, when more people begin to arrive. I hope I was able to answer your query. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Hi Rachel! Thank you for watching my video!

Hi Zhanna! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, as far as I know, you can find this vending machine only in 2 locations in Osaka, both in the Shinsaibashi area. It's been almost 2 years since I have tried the cake so I am not sure if the vending machine is still there. But just the same, you may want to check their website for the exact locations of their vending machines. I really hope they are still there so you can try them.

Hi Amichi! Thank you for watching my video and for sharing your insights on Novotel! Yes, I agree with you! The hotel needs some improvement in certain areas. It is a very old hotel after all, and although it was already renovated, some areas still need improvement. I think its best asset is its location. It is very close to Siam BTS station, Siam Center and Siam Paragon. Even CentralWorld is just a short walk away. I have a few more videos on Bangkok hotels in the coming weeks, so in case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel so that you don't miss them. Thanks again! I hope you are enjoying your day! :)

Hi again! Yes, I agree with you! The location of this hotel is its best asset. Very convenient for shopping and trying Thai food! :)

Hi! Nice to hear from you again! Thank you so much for your support as always! :)

Hi Sheela! Thank you for watching my video and for appreciating my work! With regards to your query, it actually depends on your itinerary in Tokyo and which tourist spots you plan to visit. Personally, I would want my hotel to be in the area where I plan to visit the most tourist spots. That way, I can maximize the 3-4 days I have in Tokyo. But if you really have to stay in the Tokyo Bay area, of course it is still ok with the efficient train and bus systems of Tokyo. Just be aware that travel time from the Tokyo Bay area to the usual Tokyo tourist spots may take about an hour or more, depending on where you want to go. In a sense, that would take a bit of time from your 3-4 days, which could translate to lesser time to see the tourist spots. In any case, I am sure it would still work out if you have planned your itinerary well. I hope I was able to answer your query and help you in my own small way. In case you haven't, I hope you can also consider subscribing to my channel for more useful travel videos. Thanks again! Enjoy your trip to Japan! :)
