Join us for a Japanese Apartment Tour in Osaka, Japan as we showcase our airbnb rental that we stayed in for just over a week. Before coming to Japan we had this preconceived idea that all of our accommodations in Japan would be tiny and expensive. I suppose we thought of our experience in cities like Hong Kong and Singapore and assumed we'd be cramped for most of our trip. Surprisingly we found not only larger apartments that we expected but prices that were very reasonable and conveniently located nearby metro stations. Our Osaka apartment was in a great location (stone throw away from a metro), was quite spacious and was inexpensive. The fascinating thing about Japanese apartments is that space efficiency is maximized in a way you don't see outside of Asia in Europe or in North America. For example, sliding doors that don't take up space, chairs that can stored under tables and a bed big enough that a suitcase can fit underneath. Overall, we'd say our apartment in Osaka, Japan was excellent value, comfortable and located just perfect for our trip. We'd highly recommend this place:

Japanese Apartment Tour in Osaka, Japan Travel Video Transcript:

Today is a bit of a rainy day here in Osaka. Not ideal for sightseeing so we figured let's give you an apartment tour of our place here in the city. We've been staying here for about a week and we got this place for $30 US dollars a night. That is a steal for Japan. Like that is so budget friendly in my opinion. We're going to go upstairs and we're going to give you the grand tour.

We made it to our floor. First things first we've got a little hook for our umbrella. Everyone keeps their umbrellas outside. No one takes them. That is wonderful.
"
We are inside the apartment and if you've been traveling in Asia you know that no shoes are allowed inside the house. This is the area where you take off your dirty shoes and then you have this little cupboard. You've got your cupboard for all of the shoes. Little shoe rack. You put your shoes in.

This is our bathroom and it has three different sections. It is the largest Japanese bathroom I've ever seen. When we were looking at properties I was actually kind of surprised by the size of it.

We are now inside the bathroom and this first section here it basically has a washing machine. A large sink, a mirror. This is where you brush your teeth. Get ready in the morning. Then over here behind this frosted glass door we have our shower and our bathtub. Now I just had a shower so the floor is soaking wet. I'm going to put on my flip flops. Flips flops.

Outside. Basically you have a bathtub. It is a short bathtub. You have to be shorter than me I feel to like stretch out your legs. Definitely shorter than me. And then we also have a shower head. You shower in this section. The floor gets wet. And then basically the water goes through this drain down here. It drains there. Something I've got to mention is the water pressure is awesome here.

And then we have our toilet. It is compartmentalized. It is small. It is little but it has got everything you need. And I need to show you this. When you flush the toilet. So this is the toilet handle.

You can wash your hands and like the water you are using to wash your hands is used to fill the tank. So you are not wasting any water. That is genius.

That is a wrap for our Osaka apartment tour. I hope you guys enjoyed that and that you have an idea of what to expect in the city.

I think there are some really budget friendly properties when we were looking there were a lot of places that were listed for like 30 or 40 dollars a night for like private apartments. We found this place on airbnb.

This is part of our Travel in Japan video series showcasing Japanese food, Japanese culture and Japanese cuisine.
