Colombo Beach Hostel

They had bed bugs and no curtains between beds, but overall a decent hostel.

Die Zimmer sind extrem unhygienisch. Im Bad gab’s keinen Wasserdruck und es sind lauter kleiner Insekten im Bad rum gekrabbelt. Abgesehen davon dass die Betten alt und die Laken Löcher und Felcken hatten, haben wir bei mindestens einem Bett Bettwanzen entdeckt

My room had bedbugs, so yeah wouldn’t recommend..

Girlies this hostel had bed bugs in my female dorm :( also bad AC and dirty bathrooms. Don’t stay here if you are coming from the airport or about to head to the airport - there are so many better options closer to the airport and to the city centre

The hostel was not clean at all.. Damp Beds plus mosquitoes and bed bugs made it worse

I think they had bedbugs.. very dirty :( I would not recommend going there and I can not understand the good reviews to be honest.. they left the windows and doors open for longer times in the evening so many insects could go inside… the family dinner was good but barely enough for everyone :( I had good breakfast tho.. Other hostels in Sri Lanka were so much better for the same price

Die Betten in den Dorms sind alt und durchgelegen. Die Bettlaken sind nicht richtig sauber. Im allgemeinen ist es ziemlich dreckig. Ich habe Bettwanzen gesehen. Die Moskitonetze hängen voller Staub. Die Dorms stinken teils extrem nach Urin oder Chlor. Die Lage ist zwar gut zum Strand, der ist aber nur so mittel toll. Ansonsten gibt’s in der Gegend nicht besonders viel zu erleben. Die Bilder online sind veraltet. Ich habe das Hostel trotz bezahlten Nächten frühzeitig verlassen und mir etwas anderes gesucht.

Worst experience of my life… Unhygienic place. Can’t stand or sleep or sit peacefully thousand of mosquitoes will eat you. Till morning we were scratching the whole body. Dirty bed sheet bed bugs. Fan doesn’t work. No electricity sometimes. Was having dinner on our head pipe was leaking

Overall a decent place. But I did not like the location that much. On one side there is a huge street and on the other side a beach where everybody tries to scam you. But the one thing which bothered me the most were the bedbugs. When I woke up the other night, I had a bunch of bite marks on my back.

Don‘t book here! Even a jail is better than this hostel. Bed Bugs 100% guaranteed. Super dirty room, dirty bed sheets, sheets are to small for the old, dirty mattress. AC was working but only on 17 degrees and we weren’t able to turn it off so we kept freezing the whole night. I arrived at 00.30h pm and they asked me to sleep in the common area outside as there are people sleeping already in my room!? After me complaining about that they let me in the dorm, nobody was there…. I‘ve been to so many hostels and this is the worst. Don’t understand the amazing reviews here, might be bots!
