[@Hailstormand]

How convenient: a Tenga shop right on the route to a hotel where I would stay alone.

[@BrodinYT]

there's no better way to Experience JAPAN than a Tenga store...

[@SundrenchedLinen]

I could live in a container like that for the rest of my life. So simple and neat.

[@CrystleShadows]

I was just thinking 💭the same thing lol & it seems nice and quiet 🤫 😊

[@IvdW_]

I actually do! It's part of a temporary solution to my country's housing crisis. It's actually very doable and it encourages you to go outside more often as you are confined to just a little space for everything

[@freegreenbird]

Didn't you come here before in an older video?

[@6DireWolf9]

A year ago.

[@karimoore106]

I remembered that too!

[@coolsunconstruct]

U weren't being unfaithful and looking at an inferior KZbin channel by mistake I hope 😊😊

You mean this kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZuVaXWweMqUa5I hes not even telling that he got already got in a year ago in his videos

[@martinc.720]

@@coolsunconstruct Wow. Just wow.

[@DanOpdal]

You already did a video at this same place. I still enjoyed watching it. Cheers!

[@RizPlaysYTgaming]

Different city

[@addicted2me]

Even if he DID make another video of this hotel. Its still new content. Rather than reupload for new viewers Anyway. I rather stay at this hotel than the traditional one. I can step outside and i get fresh air and sun. ❤

[@CK-pp5vk]

Lol tenga....i have no idea

[@BrodinYT]

Ain't no way they thought we'd believe that. lol

[@tres909]

​@BrodinYT IKR! He tried to play it off but we all know better.

[@Dawn-24-27]

Love this idea! My husband and I use to own a 40' container that was made into a hydroponic farm, where we grew several varieties of leafy greens for our community, in Canada. It was great to be one of the first container farmers in our area. It would be wonderful if more countries utilized them for hotels, like Japan!

[@experience_japan]

Thank you! Your hydroponic farm sounds amazing. I agree, using containers for hotels is a fantastic idea that more countries should adopt.

[@KrisCorby-iv8dg]

...👍🇨🇦

[@chloevalantinettv3789]

I remember this place from another video! still so amazing that hotel rooms are containers! Talk about making use of things! I wish other nations would learn from Japan, and reuse things like this! The foods looked yum as always! Also I have lived in both Urban and countryside here.....both have their different advantages. Like in the urban areas, we have great internet, things are close, but it's noisy (that does not bother me though because I am deaf...) in the countryside, it's peaceful, but we dont get great internet, things are far away and not in walking distance, a car is a must have...so each have their flaws and good things. Thank you for another wonderful and amazing video, please stay safe and wonderful in your travels dear friend.

[@experience_japan]

Thank you for your thoughtful comment! It’s great to hear your perspective on urban and countryside living. I’m glad you enjoyed the video and the food! Stay safe and take care!

[@neighborhoodcatlady6094]

Am curious on how plumbing works in containers. Do toilets really flush?

[@a51mj12]

Getting a deja-vu.

[@tabithacraig9329]

I loved the container hotel so simple and it can be moved if needed, cool. I love these places you find there awesome. I'm the same way I scared of heights but I will ride the ferris-wheel. I live in the countryside, full of trees and hills. The vending machine with ice cream yes please. You should have rode that panda, have some fun.😂😂.Thank you for the video and as always waiting for the next video. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@DangHippiesPlease]

Hello friend! Another wonderful video. I was wondering, haven’t you stayed at this exact hotel before? I still loved and watched the whole video, but I can’t forget such a unique experience!

[@xenomorphphantom8852]

Cargo containers have become a great source for cheap habitation all over the world. They are easyto make and can be transported anywhere,making them into hotels or even houses has been very common since the late days of the 40's. There are several "apartment" blocks made from containers where I live,and there have been many made on Japan for about 50 years. That hotel is unusual however,the containers are still movable,that's new.

[@OrdinaryApe]

Since you have a lot of vending machine experience, do you know how quickly the vending machines will be able to accept the new currency bills being released?

[@experience_japan]

You are well aware that Japan has started introducing new banknotes today.According to the government, about 30% of vending machines already support the new banknotes.

[@BurgerParty]

Another recycled video looks you didnt even tell your viewers that you already got a video a year ago XD kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZuVaXWweMqUa5I

[@martinc.720]

That he doesn't tell us, I can live with that, people will recognize the title or the place. But just wait to have original content before uploading agin.

[@martinc.720]

Is it just me, or are many of the latest videos a reupload, or a second visit to a certain location?

[@shannongoodall7218]

He has visited the same hotel but the rest of the places he visited are completely new.

[@martinc.720]

@@shannongoodall7218I recognized several older videos over the last few months.

[@BurgerParty]

he cant even tell his viewers that its his second time going on there

[@technojunkie213]

why is japan literally better than every other country at everything ?? :) i luv u japan

[@MikeAGarza]

If heat water not working then report to office ask fix it or transfer other room 🤷‍♂️

[@sheilaathay2034]

Great video. And it's not raining or snowing this time at the Container Hotel😂 great fun!❤🎉

[@mostawesomecomment6553]

They sound uncomfortable, but they seem surprisingly nice! Thanks for another great video (;

[@OldManCad]

Can I just point out we lived 4 to a container in Afghanistan. Now its Niche living...lol

[@Squirel]

The hotel is awesome - I have never seen anything like it although I have seen people build homes from single or multiple shipping containers. The amazing thing is that this hotel could be moved to another site if needed to. As soon as I saw the game machines I knew you would have to try to win a prize!! Great video - thank you.

[@billhoward351]

Such a simple, well maintained, Hotel!!! And lots of fun just minutes away!!!

[@TheUluxian]

So I wondered what Tenga was... ...And now I'm cursing my damn insatiable curiosity...

[@vinniego]

First one here whilst watching an older video of yours

[@UserT_J]

Nice, Not these hotels where i live . California. But still not here. Japan First Japan CooL. Love your videos 🎉😊 5:40

[@chocolatecookie8571]

Perfect. Very impressive and affordable. Thank you for this video. I enjoyed it. Have a good stay.

[@margaretluna7016]

I love watching your adventures through Japan! The container hotel looks comfortable and the amusement park looks fun! Thank you for sharing it with us! 🙏❤️

[@gregwillams8324]

Thanks so much for the video a great way to end the day at 2:15am. Diffently a dream of mine to do a 2 weeks luxury vacation trip to Kyoto Japan

[@BlueJay56]

Incredibly, ramen here in the US (Seattle, WA) is roughly $15 without any sides like the rice you'd gotten or gyoza.

[@experience_japan]

Thank you for sharing! That's quite pricey. How's the taste there?

[@BlueJay56]

@experience_japan I found one I really like. I feel like a lot of places that do ramen here try to make the soup too unique or add strange things to it like cabbage or lots of corn. I prefer a simple pork cutlet ramen with a little nori and sometimes an extra egg!

[@jaehaspels9607]

The hotel was so nice except for the lack of hot water in your room. It would be great for people w/ kids because they could make as much noise as they want w/out disturbing neighbors. I love the way Japan has little amusement parks that are permanently there. Here, in the USA, those are very rare. Some towns will have a county fair that has amusement park rides and food but only for a week in the whole year. Thanks for the fun video.

[@peachpanzer519]

in canada we have apartment complexes built from containers, container living is very common

[@romanianpatriot2095]

I am glad to see the hotel again

[@22seanmurphy]

Hi from the UK that looks nice and clean and comfortable I'd be happy to spend some time in one of those very cosy, I really enjoyed that 😊

[@kellyj.azania4371]

Do you have to pay for the frozen meals or, are they included in the room fee?

[@experience_japan]

They are included!!

[@SnappingTurtle801]

Japan has the coolest things. I prefer the urban area, but that may change when I retire. The ride you passed on we have that at our local amusement park. I don't ride it either nor the Ferris wheel. Also, afraid of heights.... lol.

[@manuelgreil4306]

Nodashi station looks completely different from what I remember. Lots of construction work, it seems. Been in Noda many times, last time in 2015. Sakuragi Jinja is worth a visit.

[@KrisCorby-iv8dg]

Geezus! That donut place sounds just awful... Bad name really!!!...😬

[@bigoexposure3999]

I would so leave my family and move in one of these 😂

[@experience_japan]

Haha, that's quite the commitment! Thanks for watching!

[@abemanzur6985]

Shit we can never have in America… 😮‍💨 imagine if this concept of housing was used for apartments in America.. having cheaper rent no roommates…. life can be simple but we complicate it

[@Giovnni_RF]

I don't know if you like F1, but it would be great if at some point you go to Mie in hte suzuka circuit and show what the whole experience is like :D, although it will be expensive lol

[@sunflowers4227]

I prefer the countryside. 🏞👍

[@MsNIKITA]

London has Container City which contain a variety of homes created with containers for people to live in long term.

[@Neptune.Gaming]

Such a cool concept! I’ve seen where people make tiny homes out of shipping containers!

[@Neptune.Gaming]

Also, that Ferris wheel was huge! I’d be afraid too! 😅

[@experience_japan]

Thanks for your comment! Tiny homes made from shipping containers are fascinating. And yes, the Ferris wheel was indeed massive!

[@darlene5216]

$45/night. That's not bad and its a nice room too.

[@NorthStarBlue1]

It's such a neat concept but they could never do something like this in America. Partly because of the difference in building regulations, and partly because people would be trying to hitch those containers up to their trucks and drive off with them if they weren't permanently secured to the ground.

[@gleggett3817]

I googled and found a container hotel in Colorado. And one in Texas. And another in California.

[@ScratchGlass9]

I have a 55-gallon steel drum you can sleep in for....half the price.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

Can't say I'm a fan. These containers hit a bit too close to the idea of being stuffed in a cage like an animal, no matter how gilded it is on the inside.

[@JM2U]

Very cool! Thanks for your videos:)

[@jm891212]

really enjoyed this one, thank you!

[@nekowonka]

Is that onsen tattoo friendly? Or foreign friendly? I would love to visit it ❤

[@Paperworms2nd]

Would it count as a national desaster if the soy sauce storage burned down? 😅

[@Jaminsongunner]

1:18 love the advertisement for the zoo

[@WezleyB]

Jack in the donuts, is what my probation officer told me not to do anymore...

[@boinkmaticgaming5835]

That is what the TENGA store is for LuL

Obivously not western friendly. Not for a tourist.

[@cherylsemrau7100]

Fun.

Press x to doubt lol i even i know what that tanga shop is.

[@wonky1548]

This concept is used all the time in Oilfield Mancamps

[@TheArgon14]

TIL your name is Tim! What a fun fact!

[@renerivera9715]

Container hotel? I need to see this

[@Martina_Reiki]

Wau so depressing, without trees and green around.

[@Cranetesius]

i wonder if someone would drive those containers to the road

[@scottshep8978]

Despite the lack of hot water that place was very nice and inexpensive. I was surprised that was only one vending machine. A pleasant surprise was the laundry facility. The amusement park was very nice. A great view from the ferris wheel.

[@xredgambit]

Great video! I like looking up where you are on google maps sometimes to see where the locations are. I'd like to visit that amusement part and even stay in that hotel some day. If it's not too much trouble (and possible) a link to the google maps of the main attraction or a couple of spots when you visit a couple places in the description would be nice. But I don't mind finding out for myself.

[@Toby_the_Glen]

Why are there so few cyclists and escooter riders?

[@Barbara-b8y]

I love visiting your channel it gives me a break from The hectic and crazy country I live in in America I wish I can go to Japan and just live there forever

[@miru-d2u]

living in container is a common sight now in America

[@todd2649]

I’ve been saying this for years…the us needs container houses for temporary homeless …hear me California?

[@Myebayvideoschicago]

I work at a baseball stadium and they’ve made a lot of the food/drink areas out of metal containers. Idk if just for the aesthetics or if they actually are cheaper. My favorite places are the edge of urban areas as they abut the country. Life long obsession with those areas.

[@rezaalan3991]

Great video. Another stay at container hotel, but this time in different city and different season. To be honest, I like this type of accommodation, compact and have everything you need.

[@tomaiger]

gehen dir langsam die plätze aus? eine ähnliche anlage war ja schon thema... schade ich mag den kanal

[@number1shibneb]

Thanks for another cool video. Only containers here in UK are for storage. Or hiding a body lol.

[@senselessdreamer6583]

I could live there in this container as long as I could bring my hamster's .
