Staying In Hotels Is Never Cheap,

unless you can find one for a $1.20 a night!

but there is a slight catch, no privacy! for just 130 yen (about $1.20) anyone can book a room for a night, as long as they don’t mind giving up their privacy, that’s because in order to take advantage of this amazing offer, you have to agree to let the hotel live-stream your whole stay on its YouTube channel, photograph Business Ryokan Asahi,

the hotel in question is in the Japanese city of Fukuoka, the Business Ryokan Asahi, a welcoming inn located about a 15-minute walk from the city’s shopping and entertainment area, the deal at Business Ryokan Asahi is available every day, including weekends and holidays, and anyone can take advantage of it, it is not as bad as it sounds, though. While the camera covers the entire tiny room, leaving occupants no place to hide, it doesn’t come with a microphone. The lack of audio coverage is designed to avoid copyright infringement complaints for music that could be heard from the in-room TV, but guarantees that no one will hear you talking to yourself or others, snoring, or making other embarrassing sounds, the guys at SoraNews24 recently booked a stay in Business Ryokan Asahi’s video-monitored room, and learned the reason behind its crazy low price. Apparently, room no.8 was the least booked room in the entire hotel, so management came up with the bizarre offer to hopefully convince people to stay in it, at just 130 yen per night, they’re not making a fortune from it, but the exposure alone is worth it, and it’s better than having it unoccupied all the time, what a neat piece of 'free' publicity.
