One tip is that if you're not signing up for their membership programs. I know Toyoko Inn gives discounts to members. If you don't, booking through hotels.com gives a straight-forward stay 10 nights get one free scheme.
i do find agoda to have better pricing for asia though. they do play games with coupons/click throughs (some links will be cheaper than others)
(just checked, agoda ranges $50-$65, hotel.com ranges $63, same room/hotel/dates)
+1 for dormy inn too (i enjoy the hot baths there)
