Um... I can't quite say about the give for futons, but they do come with nice fluffy blankets and I never want to get up. But I suspect you may want to try one first before booking, just in case?

Japanese-style curry is thicker than Indian or Thai curry, sans the sweetness of Thai curry. Um. I'm not sure how else to describe it -- it's usually thick with potatoes and chunks of meat and carrots and not as spice-full as Indian curry and not as sweet as Thai curry. It's spicy as in hot (though you can ask for mild ones), but doesn't have the same kinds of spices or as much, I think.
