Common Forum Complaints

Here are some common complaints I have found in various travel forums, in regards to Japan.


  1. My hotel room was too small! It was tiny! OMG! SMALL!!!
  2. (Insert Place Here) was crowded!
  3. Hotel proprietors didn't speak enough English! (Even when the same review mentions that they spoke enough to be helpful.)
  4. Rooms are dated/old. (I think this is a cultural expectation? Here it seems like nicer hotels re-do their decor every 5-10 years?)
  5. I wasn't allowed to take pictures! (Usually in a holy site or museum... Uh, that happens everywhere.)
  6. Food is scary.
  7. Tourist attraction was too touristy? 
  8. Tourist attraction wasn't touristy enough~!

    Haha - I always eyeroll when I see "my room was so small!" Maybe don't bring nine suitcases and then you'll fit perfectly!

      Hahaha. You could also realize, I don't know, that until recently most Japanese were a bit smaller than Americans. Or that land costs a lot. ^,^; Every forum guide I read says "pack light"! Wonder why?
