I mean, Osaka staying at an hotel.

It's pretty popular chain here in Japan.

And I can actually access everybody's room from this balcony right here.

Yeah, I stayed here for the last three days before I give my thoughts on the room and the experience and whether it's worth it all that Let's go back to day one so I could give you a peek at the room itself.

Right?

First, begin the room.

Let's take a look around.

G goes in here and always gonna be a really quick room tour looking.

This is like the tiniest room ever.

And the TV turns on when you have me.

And I guess this is terrible.

For 50 bucks a night, I've stayed in worse places.

Okay, let's Seaver can't box off a tour in I don't know.

30 seconds.

We got this guy hanging out right by the entrance.

Get a little fridge, which is off right now, and empty slippers down there.

Hello, mirror.

We'll check the bathroom in a second, and this is pretty much the entire room right here.

My biggest concern is like if I'm even gonna fit on that bed or not, I guess we'll find it.

Got a little workspace.

Here it is.

Apparently goes back enough with, of course, the standard yukata that comes in most Japanese hotels.

And it's got a little paper crane.

Hi.

Yet light control right here.

Room.

Brag it.

Boom!

There we go.

I have noticed that some of the wallpaper around the edges here is peeling.

But if that's the worst problem you have in a hotel, you're still have a pretty good day.

Check of the washer.

Fairly standard unit bath style washroom.

They're all just kind of built in.

You shower and bathe right there.

Also, in case you didn't know a lot of Japanese hotels or even businesses just like to fold their total labor in a neat little triangle to welcome you.

I gotta say, I'm actually impressed with the humanities here.

I stayed at the Intercontinental in Times Square a while back, and while the really good rooms had great amenities, the cheap brooms, which were still fairly expensive, had like nothing.

So that's that's not bad for again $50 room.

I think that's I think that's all tour.

Check the view way, have a balcony downside and everybody has this bell connect and literally access any of the other rooms by going down there, which means they can.

I keep this window locked and the curtains clothe.

I feel better.

So I guess this is my home base of operations.

For the next three nights, I guess I'll check back in like, three days.

Cool.

Close that window and we go.

So over the last year, I have stated a whole bunch of different hotels.

I have stayed at a nice hotel, which are right by gorgeous beaches, tiny little hotels up in Hokkaido.

But coming down to Osaka, I realized I had never booked any of the like chain hotels.

I can up a hotel for those of you familiar with Japanese business hotels there very much, I guess a very plain and simple up a hotel really kind of falls into that category.

They're looking no frills, super basic hotel.

You've seen it for the most part of the room is fairly clean.

I had no problems with that.

Amenities were great.

You can pay like an extra, like 13 bucks for breakfast, but there's a convenience store right around the corner.

Hello, Japanese convenience stores.

My biggest issue, more than anything came in when it came to the security of the room.

But I'm talking about the balcony access to all the rooms.

I think you're gonna find that in a lot of different hotels.

The other day, when I left the room, I left the key right there in the slut.

You're supposed to take it with you.

Obviously, when I came back and I need to get a new key.

I talked them to the front desk and they're like, You could do so for 1000 yen.

If you find the other key will return your 1000 yet.

But at that time, all they asked me was my room number.

I gave them my room number, Got out my i d expecting them to, you know, want to check my idea.

And they're like, Oh, so you're Norm and I'm like, Yes, I am.

And they're like, OK, here's your new card.

And while the argument probably can be made that I'm not Japanese and there's probably not that many norms staying at this hotel, that still seems like a huge lapse in security.

Also, this pillow I don't even know what this is this is This is by far the single least comfortable pillow that I have ever used in my life.

My blanket was thicker than this, but that was just a terrible pillow.

Just Apple Hotel.

If you ever end up watching this, do something about those pillows that that was garbage.

It's also really common in rooms like this to not have that many plugs about things in.

I think there's a three in this room.

A little bit of a hack that I love to share.

Hotel related videos is there's almost always USB plugs behind the TV.

Actually, I've got my wife, I my GoPro, charging right now, and I almost forgot to mention they do have a free public bath that any guests in the hotel can use, and they've got a whole bunch of other small amenities.

As for my personal verdict on the hotel, it's it's not terrible.

I've stayed in worse places, but again, I've stayed in better places for cheaper that there was a nice little Airbnb around the corner from here for like, $10 less per night.

Maybe next time, all check that I've yet to stay at an Airbnb in Japan had a bit of a regulation issue of their babies for a while, so it became kind of a risky thing to book them.

Seems like a lot of that has been sorted out.

The caution remain, and these upper hotels are everywhere.

By the way, everywhere you we will find these.

They're all over the place.

But as I said, there's such a great variety of places stay in Japan.

So in the end of the decision is up to you.

But now you know what an Apple Hotel is like at the very end of this video, I'm going to link a playlist of short videos just like this designed to give value to your trip in Japan.

I I think there were a couple bloopers in this video, so I'm gonna roll those and I will see you guys again.

Rail soon.

Hey, guys.

Tripped.

Not a great start, literally like the first meeting of the video rivals ball.

All right, It's a fun fact about shooting this scene.

It turns out that they actually deactivate the other car.

And when I left to shoot this scene, I left the rial card in here again.

And then she had to go down and have them reactivated.
