Honestly, when I arrived at the guesthouse yesterday I thought the place was pretty sketchy. It's a bit drab and not perfect, but at least I get a private room. The isn't enough room to do exercises, but at least there's a small park at the back of the guesthouse, so I can work out there.
Here's an introduction to the place!

| "locks" |

| Did this get pulled out of the wall once? |
 |
| The weird box on top of the TV looked too much like a camera for me to trust it, so I covered with a bag. |
 |
| if I put 100 yen into this I can use the AC for 2 hours, up to 14 hours at a time |

| LAN internet connection through the doorway strung across the ceiling in the hallway |

| how I lock my door when I leave |
If someone wanted to, he or she could use one of these and lock me in my room. Plus there are bars on my window so I wouldn't be able to escape that way. Fortunately the walls are flimsy so I could just break out if I needed to. Still kind of seems weird to me that someone could lock my door from the outside, though.
