What Does a Korean Hostel in the Middle of Tokyo Says about Internationalization of Japan
The author is a big user of hostels. Being cheap locations with many people to meet and relative safety of numbers , they generally fit the author's intention to travel on the shoestring and bump into random people in random places. Interestingly enough, the author had never before stayed in hostels in Tokyo, despite having lived in the country for over seven years. The current trip gave him that particular opportunity, as he specifically sought out perhaps the cheapest place to sleep in central Tokyo, with the price tag of about 180 USD for a whole week and a half of stay.
