“Best location ever”
An absolutely brilliant location, great for getting to the Naiku Jinja, or inner shrine, early in the morning to beat the crowds and/or catch the sunrise. The host was wonderfully kind and I loved the old house. Very fun.

“Walking distance to Naiku and Okage Yokocho”
I chose this place for its walking distance to Ise Jingu Naiku and Oharai-machi and Okage Yokocho. Around winter solstice and depending on the weather, you'll have easy access to Ujibashi at the Naiku entrace to catch sunrise over the torii gate!

I really liked this place, casual home style accommodation. The host was so kind. He speaks English and helped me out to figure out with the meanings of Ofuda which I am deeply grateful. Thanks to that I got the Ofuda I need.

“Cozy space next to the action in Ise”
Impressive location right next to the shrine. As a space, a bit used, May need some upgrades. TAKESHI speaks great English and was willing to help us out in any doubts we had.
