One of the most economic ways for backpackers to travel in Japan is to sleep in a capsule hotel. It cost only 4,000 yen which is around US$32. Each individual sleeps in a coffin-like capsule, which contains a bed and a TV. Bathrooms? Share one! After all, all you need is a place to sleep!

This kind of capsule hotels was formally men only. But as it grows more popular, now there are areas open for women only.

Don’t worry about getting separated with your girlfriend, there are plenty more hotels for other purposes in Japan.

Take a look at one of the capsule inn. I’d visit Akihabara if I got the chance to visit Japan. It’s a place full of gadgets and techie stuffs.
