You don't sleep directly on the mats, they have Futons, and if you're after extra comfort, just grab another couple of futons and pile them up ! (I used one, but Mum used two) Also, the share bathroom was never a problem. I think we had to wait about 15 mins once, but the rest of the time we went straight in. Also, there's never anyone alone if LoTters share rooms !
Oh, and yes, there's western toilets, but no "washlet" to shoot you in the face.

We don't look at it as scrimping, we look at it as "Preserving Traditionalism while at the same time being able to afford extra hunny popcorn and gyoza rolls at TDS"
