Yes Japan is great. I just wish I could receive the R5 II I ordered last month sooner than February. Especially since Canon is located right here in Japan. Nice video.

this is a very informative vlog thank you

Thanks for the video. Only one thing that interest me. I am 196 cm tall. How long are the beds?

It seems like a very nice budget option!! Happy new year Gordon

Nice! Happy new year Gordon!

amazng

nice

Hi what month did you visit nikko?

I just put a booking in for this exact hotel a little bit ago! I'm going to japan next week and it'll be my first time out of North America as an adult Very helpful video and I'm much less anxious about my hotel, thank you!!

This is something that could only exist in Japan; in America most Super 8s/Motel 6s etc aren't anywhere as nice haha

Subbed! 1:21 Love that scene change! 4:00 Careful not to scratch your insteps with that door.. I did it few times before, and it is painful for some days. 9:00 Oddly the power outlet, maybe just me who bothers, most of them doesn't accept extra prong for Grounding contact. (Longer left slit is Neutral, BTW)

This train looks like it is going lightning fast, without it even moving.

What another great video. We dont need much brainstorming for best of travel, just follow your footsteps. Thanks!

One for the list.... Thanks :)

Cool! :)

These travel videos are wonderful! Subscribed and I look forward to watching more. - A long-time fan of your camera reviews :)

Only 175mph....

Hi Gordon! I haven't been to a TJ's in years. I think the nearest one is more than 100 miles away. I remember I always likes their dark chocolate bars and my sons always snagged a bag of licorice bits (bites?). Sometimes they had maple sugar cookies too! Thanks. I look forward to more travel vids.

Going in a few weeks. Thanks for the tips in this video.

Excellent advice! Sadly, I don't know how to ski. ((

I see - I need a new packing technique for my luggage to be able to live out of my suitcase for a whole trip to Japan. Thank you for the room tour to give an impression what it could look like in a budget hotel.

Thanks for the great video! Visiting Japan for the first time ever in a couple days so the info is much appreciated!

WoW! That's Absolutely Awesome And Breathtaking! I Loved it!

Thank you Gordon - loved ur vid- I will be staying in Asakusa and will be going to NIkko , so this is a perfect vid with a lot of guidance on how to get there and what to do.

ayy stumbled upon your channel and recognized you from the camera reviews :) regardless Im planning to visit japan next may for the 2nd time this time for a month, and I feel like I've missed out on so much first time around, never knew nikko even existed before seeing this video in my recommended and it looks absolutely beautiful have to admit.

I also recommend a trip to Nikko. Wear some very comfortable shoes and if you don't do a lot of walking, start practicing now. Day trip from Tokyo to Kyoto? I suppose there may a few people that do that, but nobody really recommends that trip because of the length of the round trip, and because Kyoto has so many things to see that even a couple of days isn't enough to comfortably see everything. A similar length trip is Tokyo to Matsushima Bay which is listed as one of the 3 most beautiful locations in Japan. Like the trip to Kyoto, it's a very expensive day trip so probably only feasible if you already have one of the various JR passes. Matsushima is a small town, and you can easily take a boat ride into the bay, explore the waterfront and viewpoints, and visit most of the local attractions all within a day if you get an early start.

Apa are my go to hotels when Im solo in Japan

Thank you so much for this informative video! I appreciate the attention to detail and also the visual guide on where to go. I have a trip to Japan next year and this is a day trip I hoped could be done in a day. Thank you for showing that it can!

Shame I didn’t get to see this place! Looks great! Making me miss Japan so much 😢

I stayed at an APA hotel in Shinjuku this past February. Cozy and affordable. My only complaint was that the room was very warm and I could not adjust the temperature. I had to call the front desk to have them lower the room temperature. Front desk was very helpful relocating my luggage as I had it delivered by mistake to another APA hotel in Shinjuku.

My problem would be the steps, because my fobia of heights step inclines are hard for me.

Love this place!

wow it's beautiful there! thanks for the video Gordon! Did you shot this using the dji pocket 3 as well? Picture quality is great! Only thing bad about the pocket 3 is the up/down bounce when walking.

Nice video Gordon!!! So sad i can't make it to visit this temple

Looks like a nice place to visit, especially during the warm green time of the year.

I got confused with the B-Roll because I also follow a TH-camr from Japan called Rambalac. He does POV walks much like I do, but in the exact same places you just walked through and hundreds more too. You can always tell it's Japan. In any case, looks like I need to visit the Cat Army Headquarters at some point.

I did this exact route yesterday and absolutely loved it-I thought Beehive was fun! Favorite day in Acadia so far

Loving your travel content... Excited to watch this new channel grow! If I could offer a suggestions-- knowing your focus (and great skill) in photography, I'd love to see some of your photos interspersed with your travel vlogs. Keep being awesome!

Nice review Gordon, looks perfect to me and reminds me of Yotel everything you need and nothing you don’t all in a neat little package.

Awesome, You covered it all. Glad I watched this, I will need to remember this place. Mahalos, Gordo!

It's pronounced "Appa" not "A.P.A." That said, great review!

Perfectly serviceable. Is it clean? Check. Is it ergonomic? Mostly check. Does it encourage you to go out and see the sights? Absolutely check.

You got a new subscriber! I love my apa room, great value for money and superb location

Different from your regular camera videos but I like it. Well done, looking forward to more videos like this one and safe travels

Watching this from a hotel room just as cozy as this in Tokyo! It’s a fun experience for sure and interesting juggling the space with 2 people

Interesting culture Japan being a country where space is a luxury so you need to have great design skills in order to give the guest the required amount of stuff/features. I prefer to pack light when I travel as it gets really annoying to carry a heavy bag/backpack after a while, also unless my destination is in the middle of nowhere I can visit the city centre and buy something that I didn't want to bring from home because of weight or size reasons. Keep up the good work!

Cozier than a Microtel

LOVE it!
