How much of an impact do hotels really have on your trip?

I’m going on a solo trip to Japan at the end of this month and am second guessing myself on my hotel choices. I’m going from Tokyo-Kanazawa-Kyoto-Kinosaki Onsen Town-Tokyo. I’m spending only one night in Kanazawa and Kinosaki.

My hotels are pretty basic. I went with APA hotels in Tokyo and Hotel M’s in Kyoto. The rooms are very small and don’t have any fancy additions. I plan to spend most of my time out and about, but I also want to feel comfortable when I turn in for the night or take some time to relax in between attractions.

Has anyone ever regretted booking at a business hotel (I think that’s what my rooms are, please correct me if I’m wrong)? I have a moderate budget but really don’t want to be breaking the bank on my hotel accommodations. I know this is all a matter of preference, but I just want to be sure that I’m not making myself uncomfortable with booking smaller rooms during my trip.

EDIT: I love this subreddit so much. I’ve gotten so many responses to my question and it’s been great hearing everyone’s perspectives.
