Hi
About Toyoko Inn’s online booking for the Heartful Room…
It may not be that they are just giving it to anyone regardless of need. I was in Asakusa the other day an was surprised to see so many more people with disabilities than before. So, it may just be that there are more people who are using it than before, especially since it is easier to book than before. While it is inconvenient, having hotels sell out the accessible room will encourage them to make more in the future.
Another thing may that it is listed in the system but they have it blocked off unless someone calls and books it. If it is not booked 2 days before the date, they open it up to anyone (which is why it shows up in the system). JR did this for ages. So, you may want to try calling anyway.
Anyway, as for a similar hotel, you could try Route Inn. They aren’t as big, but similar in price range I believe.
Dormy Inn could be another alternative:
