Too expensive as gift.  Not an ideal gift.

hehe am doing now, reading reviews and checking rates..just to see if there is any first hand experience from lowyaters here biggrin.gif

by the way, i come across something interesting. in some ryokans, the room types are stated as 6 tatami mat room, 8 tatami mat room, etc..i believe, they are referring to the area of the room right?

Lol, I dont have the budget for the best. Maybe budget around Y5000 per pax for accomodation only. Most important is having private bathroom. I am ok with bathing nude around strangers brows.gif but not my travel partners.

Not a 100% Ryokan.  Because it lack of Onsen.  that why the price are lower.
But in winter peak season price still 12000 Yen

Oh, so can be considered as guesthouse.. i don't need onsen this time hehe. I sent an email to one of them for price inquiry and received reply within 1 hour !

Upon settling all our heavy luggages we then finally proceeded to the main entrance of the DisneySea theme park. smile.gif

You set disneysea at the last day of your trip? Wouldn't it be too rush to catch Fantasmic and then head to haneda airport?

Also, if i am not mistaken you are a postgraduate student right? They do have this campus ticket for students early this year but it is no longer listed at the website.

@RegentCid, u better shut up la.. Better dont answer, rather than saying do your homework do ur homework..

U better don't bother to reply k.. Cause your wasting the forum space and its very annoying seeing you reply like that. When Im trying to search for information throughout the Japan Travel V3 forum, all I see is DO YOUR HOMEWORK.. DO YOUR HOMEWORK...

If you cant provide any information, please refrain yourself from reply.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

Please re-read my post to understand the problem.

And I did not ask any question. And if i did, i rather anybody not to reply ,if its "do your homework"

In that case, let me rephrase, no one is obliged to answer anyone. If you do not like to read a particular post from any forumer, use the ignore function.

1) What replacement are you talking about ? This is a free forum. Did anybody hire you to reply all the messages or questions here ? If your hired, I'm sorry.

2) I came here to sought for information, just like anybody who are on the internet.
*If I have an info, I will share. If I don't I will seek or ask. If I cant answer anybody's question or I don't feel like answering any question, I just shut the hell up and let other helpful forum er to answer, instead of saying "Do your homework"

3) If the question is very standard. You can choose to ignore it.
*Its very annoying scrolling through the whole forum, seeing you repeating the same old thing.
*
Just end this argument and use the ignore function, simple. Looking at the no of posts, you have not made much contribution yourself wink.gif
