Hotel: Finding a good hotel that’s centrally located and affordable was quite the challenge. After a lot of research, I came up with Toyoko Inn. It’s located in the RDL district of Tokyo called Kabuki-cho in Shinjuku and was quiet, clean, free wireless and internet stations, free breakfast, and affordable at 6,510 yen….this is cheaper than Hotel 6 in Hollywood California which is over $100usd/night!
Btw, they have the most interesting toilets. It’s waterless until you sit on it, then the pressure sensors activate and fill the bowl with water. There are electronic controls for cleaning the front side (for females) or the backside after you’re done. What locals advise: Get a nice girl to give you a dutch rudder while having the spray go full blast up you backside, and you’re on your way to turning Japanese! lol

Theses are the Maps listed on their website but I found them quite useless as it's doesn't depict all the streets making navigating very difficult. Even the locals that were looking at the map had difficulty making it out. A taxi driver should be able to get you to the hotel with the japanese version of the map.
