So now that we have plane tickets to Tokyo, I think I’m finally, finally, finally starting to wrap my head around the fact that OH MY GOD, THIS IS HAPPENING. THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING.
After a bout of a mild anxiety attack and hyperventilating, I decided to start looking around for accommodations. Figured I’d get some feelers out there and see what sort of price ranges and features we’re going to be mostly dealing with.
At first, I checked the usual popular hotels, hostels, and inns that I usually see named by my friends who have been to Japan before. They seemed… really standardized, I guess..? So I decided to check AirBnB. After all, I’ve booked with them before, and so far, each place I’ve picked out for our vacations (back when D and I were still dating) have turned out okay.
The search has turned out to be more fun than I thought, and I ended up spending about six hours just sifting through listings. This was how I found these places that even though they’re simply not gonna work out for us for one reason or another, I just couldn’t get them out of my head.
(Listed according to which ones I found first)
An Otaku’s Den – Its main come-on seems to be the room’s PS4 haha. Great location, though!
A house with… Ninjas?? – … I honestly don’t even know what’s going on here. 😀 I was scrolling through the property photos, and then BAM! NINJAS! Hahaha! Anyway they seem like a fun bunch. Maybe we’ll book their place some day and we can hang out lol.
Room above a Kendo Dojo – Ah this one seems really nice. Besides the place itself looking really pleasant, according to the reviews, the host’s wife also has this lovely habit of leaving home-made sandwiches for guests every morning. I think that’s just adorable.
Galaxy Room – This one is just super funky lol. Looks great for tripping out. 😀
An Otaku’s Den 2 – Yay for gamers and geeks who own property!
Showa Era apartment – Okay, this… THIS, I particularly love. Besides being a good-sized apartment, the whole Showa era set is just so, so endearing. There’s also all these retro items scattered around the place and I’d really love to spend a summer there, and live out a small slice of my weaboo fantasies ❤
One Piece apartment – lmao. Sadly, we’re more of Bleach guys… (shout out to Ninjabridge!)
Moe moe kyun house – … ‘nuff said.
Love Live Apartment – idek guys hahaha. Then again, I have deliberately and skillfully avoided such a big, passionate fandom, so I’m sure there’s someone out there who’d love to stay here. 😀
Talk about places with personality, right? ^_^
