    1. Thank for your inquire.

      The most popular areas in Tokyo are Shibuya, Shinjuku, Asakusa.

      For other cheap accommodation in Tokyo, a capsule hotel is recommended.

      Please do not hesitate to ask anything else!

  1. I’m sorry.
    If you participate in this Oita prefecture event
    There are many cheap hotels around Oita station.

    I searched now and it seems that the hotel here is the cheapest.

    It is still possible for you to reserve on March 2, 2019.

    It seems cheap here.

    However, I think Oita station is a bit far from the venue so you need to leave early in the morning.

    The start of the full marathon starts at 10:00.

    If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to ask me.

    I wish you a wonderful event for you.

  2. of course like your web site however you need to check the
    spelling on quite a few of your posts. A number of them are rife
    with spelling problems and I find it very bothersome to tell the reality however I will
    surely come again again.
