Until now, I still prefer to book hotel using AirAsiaGo.

The main reason is I could pay using direct debit from my local bank. ( I prefer to pay in advance)
So that I do not worry about the reservation.
Especially if you are at foreign country, you do not need to pay by cash or credit card when check-in the hotel.
(Coz the amount I can swipe for my supplementary credit card is not much, and is quite insecure to carry bulky cash with me during travel.)
It's quite reliable.
Hmm...But may be when I were in Japan, I need to use alternative method for hotel booking.
I heard that Rakuten Travel is quite a reliable site for hotel booking too.

After few weeks of survey and comparison, I decided to book a hotel near Yokohama.
I will be staying at hotel temporarily before entering hostel or get a permanent place to stay in Japan. ( hopefully I get a place in the hostel, result will be announced on 28th).
I will be staying at Daiwa Roynet Hotel Yokohama Koen.

Love this hotel at the first sight!
The price is quite reasonable for a highly rated hotel like this.
(And its quite peak season the time I go to Japan, coz it's cherry blossom season)
And I love its location, which is near to Yamashita Park, Osanbashi Pier, Yokohama Chinatown and Minato Mirai. And it's located beside Yokohama Stadium.
Read for more reviews from Tripadvisor.
