Washington Hotel Kansai Airport

Not a bad place overall. I'd recommend it, even though my one night was ¥7,900 (maybe $80 or so).

This is high compared to my next hotel, the Fujita, in Nara, which will average about $65/day for two weeks. Compared to Montreal, that is a steal, and it's a perfectly good hotel, Best-Western-style speaking.

Here's the "view" from my room; then there is the deafening racket of the cicadas (called "semi" "セミ" here). I love those little guys.
