Outstanding Experience – Highly Recommended From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed with a friendly smile and a complimentary drink. The hospitality was exceptional – the staff were incredibly helpful, attentive, and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. The entire stay was smooth, comfortable, and truly exceeded our expectations. The atmosphere was relaxed yet professional, and every detail was taken care of with care and precision. We left with only positive memories and would not hesitate to recommend this place to anyone looking for a high-quality experience. Kind regards from Switzerland.

The room was good but the attention and care from the staff made it an excellent stay. Great location: able to walk into town easily. The on site bar was very nice with a good range of snacks and the local breakfast was just right.

My room was fine; everything clean; everything worked properly, including the air con. Friendly, helpful staff - from the manager (owner?) and his wife, to the reception staff and the restaurant/bar staff. Breakfast is Sri Lankan style, bit I'm sure of you ask they would happily prepare a more western breakfast (I like the local food, so I didn't ask)

We enjoyed our stay in this place.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. As soon as we arrived, they greeted us with a free drink and took all our luggage (eight in total) to our room. Very reasonable size room with all the facilities, including bottled drinking water. Air-conditioned room with a ceiling fan too. Food in their restaurant was very good. They went out of their way to make some extra food, we requested. The prices were reasonable. We will definitely go back again.

Surrounding was dirty, lot of mosquitoes,asked the front desk to spray our room which they did. The front desk spoke a little English. It’s very difficult to communicate with them . Be prepared to bring your own toiletries. I won’t be back . All pictures shown in the Expedia were deceiving. What you see in the pictures were wrong.
