I'm going to Japan on a last second trip (leaving in a couple weeks) and I'm not sure if I should book hotels ahead of time.
I'm planning to go to cities like Okayama and Hiroshima, but most of the other main cities I want to visit are in Shikoku (Takamatsu, Kochi etc) and Kyushu (Fukuoka, Kumamoto etc).
I have no strict time limit and I'm not sure if I'd want to stay in most cities for 1 vs 2 days. I know transit is also less frequent around Shikoku especially so I'm a bit worried about things like missing the last bus to the next city.
How bad of an idea would it be to book hotels the day of for cities like the ones mentioned?
