Stayed at Sunroute Tokyo, Hotel - Tokyo, Japan.

Japan is a wonderful country to visit, but there were times that I wondered if it was worth the aggravation. Most of the aggravation came from the tiny amount of English either spoken or written on signs, subway maps, etc.
I did this trip on my way home from a year's living in China. I am accustomed to making do in a country with minimal English, and I had been to Japan for a month many years ago, and still, I found it unbearably frustrating from time to time.
People were very nice and as helpful as they could be, and many things were fascinating.
Two places I particularly recommend are north of Tokyo--Haizumi and Kakunodate. These are small towns, once populated by samurais. Many of the homes and temples of these people are still intact and open to visitors.
