Airfare from the US to Japan is expensive. As for hotels, except for Tokyo, you can get a clean and comfortable hotel room for 1 person with breakfast at the Toyoko Inn chain (join their Club for free nights) or Comfort Hotel chain for about $45. In Tokyo, plan on $63. (I pay double that in Philadelphia.)
