Concierge.com's insider take:
Homeikan is a traditional Japanese inn situated in three separate buildings (Honkan, Daimachi, Morikawa) in a quiet residential neighborhood near Tokyo University. Rooms are all Japanese-style (that is, with tatami mats and futon mattresses), either "ordinary" for budget travelers or the marginally more expensive "authentic and traditional." Opt for the latter. The main building, or Honkan, is listed as a historic property, while Daimachi Bekkan, across the street, is a former family home with its own Japanese garden. This is not like a Western hotel, so don't expect on-tap room service. The maids leave at 10 p.m. and the main lights go out at 10:30 p.m., although guests are free to come and go. The staff, in fact, is helpful and hospitable. There are no private bathrooms; instead each of the buildings has separate men's and women's baths and there is also a family bath. Massage is available, as are Japanese breakfast and dinner on request. And free Internet access is now available in the Daimachi and Morikawa buildings.
