30 Best Hotels in Tokyo for Every Budget | Condé Nast Traveler
"Before Airbnb , scoring living space in central Tokyo without all of the complicated accoutrements of Japanese bureaucracy (things like "key money" and hefty down payments) was a Herculean task. Shared dorm-like apartments (single rooms with communal bathrooms, kitchens, and couches) were the workaround for young professionals entering the workforce. Hotel Graphy borrows from that era, offering a short-stay twist for international and domestic travelers wanting a place to crash and cook a few meals without the hefty price tag. We love the private en suite rooms, which are styled with items that look like they're from a Danish mid-century garage sale." - Brandon Presser
