Offering budget accomodation in central locations, providing both private and shared rooms with communal facilities guesthouses are a popular alternative to renting an apartment or staying in a hotel for a huge number of residents and tourists in Japan.

Staying at a guest house is fairly flexible as there are no long minimum stays and you will not be required to pay any key money or have a guarantor. The rent covers utility bills and the rooms are furnished and normally internet access is provided. For those staying in Japan less than a month there are also some guest houses that rent on a weekly basis.
