This hostel is amazing! Everyone is really nice with everyone. They have free dinner for everyone every night and they let me leave my luggage for 2 weeks there while I was traveling. Totally recommended 👌🏻

Quite good hostel, no real vibe, but I was there end of April so maybe that’s why. But staff is helpful and location is super close to the beach

Lovely hostel with plenty of social spaces or to chill. Free family dinner every night is great gets people together. Very helpful and kind staff, can always find someone on reception. I had a safety scare outside the hostel and I was helped instantly so I could enjoy the rest of my stay, very grateful for the staff. Rooms are basic but clean and have enough space to put your stuff, kitchen for use as well.

Super social but not crazy party, I met people here that I took the train with to Weligama! The owner and I also talked about the upcoming Vipassana that I was doing, so he offered valuable advice there. They have food on site & are close to the beach. I arrived around 2:30am and they were able to accommodate and check me in. The AC in the rooms doesn’t work, so it is so hot, but I loved my stay here besides that. Would absolutely come again!

+ Great stay in Colombo. Great roof terrace to chill out on or play a game of scrabble. Family dinners every evening and the beach only a 5 minute walk away!

Ok hostel for one night if you are looking for somewhere to go after a long travel day, beds need upgrading, they are very old and do not provide much privacy! Very social hostel, met some lovely people who I ended up travelling with to the next location!

+ Close to beach , friendly owner who gave nice advice about Sri Lanka and the places we wanted to go.

- Rooms very basic and too expensive for a luxury room. Highest prices of our whole Sri Lanka stay for room that was not worth it, no breakfast. If you can skip Colombo that will be the best. Pictures of hostel are not what is is in real

nice rooftop area, AC was automatically switched on in the evenings and switched off in the morning so if you're in the room during the day it was very warm. family dinners were lovely
