Lodging (or a holiday accommodation) is a type of residential accommodation. People who travel and stay away from home for more than a day need lodging for sleep, rest, safety, shelter from cold temperatures or rain, storage of luggage and access to common household functions.

Lodging is done in a hotel, hostel or hostal, a private home (commercial, i.e. a bed and breakfast, a guest house, a vacation rental, or non-commercially, with members of hospitality services or in the home of friends), in a tent, caravan/camper (often on a campsite). In addition there are make-shift solutions.

Sleeping is typically done lying in a bed, or more generally on a soft surface, such as an air mattress, a couch, etc. Some trains have sleeping cars.

Sometimes people sleep sitting, because lying is not possible, such as in a train (if not in a sleeping car), a bus, a seat in a waiting room or a bench on the street or in a park. Inclinable seats allow something between sitting and lying. Whether lying on a row of seats is possible and comfortable depends on the presence of arm rests, and whether they can be moved up. In some public places, lying would be possible, but is not permitted.

Im traveling to Japan for about 30 days. How much should I budget to spend everyday including lodging?
Q. I am not looking to stay in 4 star hotels every night and I plan on seeing as much of Japan as possible. I have purchased the airline tickets already.

A. I now live in Guam but I lived in Japan for about ten years. I really do not think Japan is all that expensive compared to the prices I am paying now. Lodging is, indeed, very expensive, however, as long as you are not looking for five star treatment things really are not all that expensive. Let's say you want to buy a bottle of soda. In the states some places sell a bottle for $1.50 some for $1.39, in Japan it is almost always 150 yen out of a vending machine. People make a lot out of prices in Japan but it really depends on your lifestyle. It depends also how much of a nickel and dime spender you are. If you only buy the stuff you really want and need and stay away from impulse buying it is really not that much different than the US or… [cont.]

A. There is a Holiday Inn right outside of the base on the North side. It has the interior corridor setup (safer). They have a complimentary shuttle, but I would check and see if they can take you on base. That side of town is generally good.
