L’endroit parfait si vous recherchez un hébergement calme et apaissant proche de l’aéroport! Le staff est très gentil et le petit déjeuner traditionnel est une merveille, une très belle introduction à leur culture! L’hostel est reculé du town, mais es situé proche d’un parc très agréable!

+ Such an amazing hostel! They make you feel completely like family and can’t do enough to help you. Rooms were spacious, had lockers and curtains!! I was lucky enough to stay over Sinhala new year and they included us in their celebrations!

+ Amazing staff, especially the man that runs the property he’s so lovely and cares deeply for the guests. The night I arrived he arranged for a dinner to be cooked for us all and I thought that was such an amazing touch, it honestly was the nicest thing any hostel has ever done. It brought the group together and also is what hostels are supposed to be about but haven’t been like for a long time! The beds were really comfy too and there’s hot water and the place is really clean! I’d absolutely go back and look forward to staying again!

- Nothing that I didn’t like, I stayed in the AC room, I do think they need to service the AC as it was still a bit warm with it on. Also the fan room was very hot so if you’re unsure whether to pay the bit extra I would say definitely you should!

+ Die Lage ist toll und die Klimaanlage ist ein großer Pluspunkt. Das Personal ist nett und allgemein ist alles sauber.

- Ziemlich runtergekommen und lieblos. Die Duschen und die Klos ist ziemlich kaputt. Die Gemeinschaftsräume sind überhaupt nicht gemütlich und sehr beengt. Finde den Preis zu hoch für das was es ist.

+ Ben hier 2 nachten blijven slapen, het personeel is super lief. Er is gekookt water voor koffie of thee maar kan je ook voor noodles gebruiken zoals ik deed want de restaurants in de buurt zijn prijzig voor Sri Lanka. Je kan ontbijt bestellen (westers of sri lankaans). Ik sliep in een kamer zonder airco, er was wel een ventilator.

Excellent stay. Easy to find but when I arrived at midnight it was all closed. I just called with whatsapp and they opened the door. Fantastic sri lankan breakfast. The guys running the hostel was super nice.
