A hotel in Japan is offering up rooms for just $1 per night, providing its guests agree to have their entire stay livestreamed to the world.

Anyone who has a bucket list likely has a list of places around the world they would like to pay a visit. For most people, the stumbling block when it comes to traveling is the money. Flights alone can be expensive enough. Add to that the cost of finding somewhere to stay, eating and drinking while you’re away, and any activities you may partake in, and it soon becomes a financially unfeasible pipe dream.

Anything that might reduce the cost of a potentially expensive trip has to at least be considered. Whether it be staying in a seedy-looking hostel, eating nothing but ramen for the duration of your trip, or taking three connecting flights to your final destination rather than one direct one.

Travelers planning on paying Fukuoka, Japan a visit might well have stumbled upon an something called One Dollar Hotel. The hotel offers exactly what its YouTube channel name suggests, hotel rooms for just $1 per night, or 100 yen since its in Japan. There’s a catch though, and it’s a creepy one, reports CNN Travel. Guests who take advantage of the $1 offer also agree to have their entire stay shown on livestream.

Tetsuya Inoue came up with the idea when he needed to think of a way to entice people to stay at his grandmother’s hotel. So far, four people have taken him up on the offer, and the YouTube channel which shows the streams already has more than 1000 subscribers. Once Inoue has streamed more than 4000 hours, he will be able to include ads on his channel and thus monetize the idea. So far, though, the venture has only made him $4.

There are obvious reasons why people are eager to glimpse into someone’s hotel room. However, there are rules in place. Guests cannot commit “lewd acts” in the room and are warned against leaving things such as their credit cards and passports out and in view of the cameras. There are also no cameras set up in the rooms’ bathrooms. There is also no sound on the streams so viewers can’t listen in on private phone calls and conversations.
