After waiting and waiting and hoping someone would request books from me, 2 people have! Go me! I now just need to pack them up and I can mail them out. :D I'm rather pleased because once they've been received I can request 2 more books.

I'm still waiting for all of my books, I have 3 outstanding requests, one of which is a book for [livejournal.com profile] yanchamonkey.

So thankfully, I'm now pretty much settled for hotels. I'm going to be trying several new places so wish me luck. One of the places in Tokyo comes highly recommended from [livejournal.com profile] muscatlove. I also decided to splurge and try the Hibiya Park, because I like its Shimbashi location and the rooms look extraordinarily large for rooms in Japan. For those who have never been to Japan before and think hotels are outrageously expensive, well it all depends on where you are from. My most expensive night is $100 at the Ariake, which is a 5 minute walk from Tokyo Big Sight, which makes the price worth it. Most of the other hotels are closer to about $80 a night. All of them are within 6 minutes of a station, all are western style and have private bathrooms and I believe LAN sockets so I can have internet. While I like sleeping on futons, I get to do that when visiting friends, so I don't need to at a hotel as well. I'm also trying some place new in Osaka which again was picked for its location and is near a Midousuji subway stop. I'd have stayed in the same hotel I used last time in Osaka but the beds are doubles.
