for the moment we stick to khaosan ninja which 2,200yen per person if can get 10 people. or 2,500yen for 6 i think.
i'm trying to find a house that can fit us and doesnt have crazy deposit or crazy cleaning service charge xD well after divide the cleaning charge aint that crazy la. but the deposit is ._. trying to get a house so that for those who want to cook can cook and more spacious for us as well to enjoy Added on February 27, 2012, 11:41 amagoda site is good. can find quite nice prices offer 8D but i guess we need to booked like damn early if want it http://www.agoda.com/asia/japan/tokyo/hote...dome_villa.html example RM165 for 2 person hotel hoho. double bed la xD not sure they have single 2 bedding or not and in promo also or not. most probably dont have for now since not listed. still can lurk around there more to get better prices. Added on February 27, 2012, 12:58 pmho yeah i found  http://www.aizuya-inn.com/rate.html not sure good or not havent fully search info/comments about it found out bath is seperate charge xD but not bad kua if u use water for 5min flow only. 5min total flow of water = 100yen i will try to email khaosan and aizuya for rate in group since might have discount.

i'm thinking to stick with palace japan for now since it got the highest rating among the others i list out. but it is a bit higher than others. though the facilities seems much better and comfy
not sure others are ok or not. do give feedbacks. total cost stay there for the whole trip wont be over RM2k even stay in single room. got tv, fridge, heater/air-conditioner in room. bathroom, toilet, pantry, living room still share.also thinking to plan for 1 week JR pass. which cost around RM1.1k (ordinary pass. RM1.5k for green pass - vip i guess). we can basically take any train (almost any train. also some other public transport as well) and go anywhere we want. good to explore for 1 week. another 1 week just around tokyo or something :3 how? by bullet train we can go and back at most places in 1 day ka? if yes then good. can just stay same hotel and no need to bring stuff all around haha » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |

eh tak. bukan jalan sehari suma skali haha. tu sebab ambik jr pass seminggu.
ke maksud satu tempat tu nak buat 2 hari or so? tapi barang.. malas plak nak berangkut nyoron... kalo serius nak wat pindah randah ok je rasanya. tapi tu kena plan abisan la tempat tinggal ngan tempat nak visit Added on March 1, 2012, 3:23 pmada lagi satu cara nak skip semalam hotel setiap kali tukar tempat. bak kata org kat thread lain: "If you find the shinkansen too expensive, you may want to consider overnight bus such as Willer Express. Around 4,000 yen one way. Can also save on one night accommodation" so, 1 place we go for 2 or 3 days? then shift to other place pakai willer express at night. sampai2 da siang jalan2 skit tempat baru, check in hotel sambung jalan. then rehat malam, esok jalan2 lagi... @_@ tapi maybe memenatkan haha This post has been edited by sakuradesune: Mar 1 2012, 03:23 PM |

palace hotel looks nice. just hv to get ppl to agree on price. the train idea might be fun too, if they have bunk beds we can sleep in.
also, i got a short notice im going this monday for foodex at big site. itinerary looks full but if i do hv time i'll try n check out accommodation. |

yeah, its like extra rm20 per night but the quality almost like 3 star hotel there which cost around rm300 per night.
if the train have beds, i for sure on since can sleep in quite comfy way. if dont have, maybe we do 3 days stay, then travel new place, then stay 3 days more. rotate w. if still want do the train idea that is. else i suggest like earlier, stay at palace hotel + jr pass. not sure if can go visit 1 place and back in same day or not though. since i heard train there damn fast? xD thats why i have that kind of idea. needs those experience give their thoughts |

okay
actually i also thinking the same thing about the packing issue. thats why i suggest the JR pass. but i not sure if the train is damn fast for us to go and back same day. well we can stay 1 nite somewhere *hostel or karaoke/cybercafe lol* for some place that really need an overnite. so need someone with the experience give opinion on this.or maybe we should list out the places that we think a must visit category first. then i try to look around the info on the journey time needed for arrived and back. so any places that you guys think it is a must visit place? we got 1 week for far places visit (for places we want to utilize the JR pass). and then the other 1 week for tokyo and events around it Added on March 5, 2012, 1:12 amhttp://www.japan-talk.com/jt/guide/101-things-to-do-in-tokyo This post has been edited by sakuradesune: Mar 5 2012, 01:12 AM |

Tokyo – Osaka (515 km): 2 hours and 30 minutes
sounds fast enuff. so we stay with the palace hotel + jr pass 1 week for visiting outside tokyo, 1 more week for tokyo and tokyo events. everyone okay with this? if yes then we can start plan for places to visit that near the shinkansen for JR Pass, that 1 week. around 7 places i guess we can go to. for now that confirm joining are: - sakura - ultimaweaponx - setsuna (until 4th jan) - setsuna fren (until 4th jan) - exiled gundam - riku - ravira - ultraman mikuru (1 week or so) i most probably take the single room. @_@ EG not sure joining hotel yet since he say he might stay with his cousin. so left setsuna, setsuna fren, riku, ulti and ravira. if can get 1 more person it will be nice. so setsuna and fren can fit 1 room for 2, the other 4 can fit in 1 room for 4 for easier checkout process. so no need to change room. i guess ultraman mikuru also can take single room then since u only joining half the journey~ unless u got company go same date? not sure when the suitable time to book but i plan to book asap so can get the room. edit: oh crap forgot 1 more person, ravira w. Added on March 5, 2012, 2:39 pmroute schedule/etc info http://www.jorudan.co.jp/english/ Added on March 5, 2012, 4:59 pmhttp://www.japan-guide.com/ Added on March 5, 2012, 11:00 pmafter browsing tru the 101 things to do in tokyo, its actually quite a lot of things can be done in tokyo alone. so now i asking, do you guys just want to walk around tokyo (+ 1 or 2 places outside tokyo go by cheap transport maybe) or want to utilize the 1 week JR pass + around tokyo? i dont mind either choices xD so any is okay with me.
