The location was convenient, and everything was well organized and thoughtfully maintained. The place felt clean and comfortable, with a welcoming atmosphere that made it feel like home. The team were friendly and helpful, which really made the stay enjoyable. I’d recommend this hostel for a relaxing stay and would happily come back. 😎😎😎😍

The towels were dirty, and there were insects crawling in the bed, which was horrifying. Before that, when we arrived, they said they had no record of our online booking. We were so tired that we paid an extra 2000 LKR to get a room. Worst hostel I’ve stayed in for the price.

The rooms and bathrooms were clean, and the hosts were really friendly and always willing to help. Great location too. I loved my stay and hope to come back next time. We were visiting from Kenya 🇰🇪

I had a bad experience with the manager, who was very rude and selfish. Charging two different people for the same bed 🛏️ isn’t fair. I don’t recommend this place at all.

The host was kind and welcoming, but our one night here came with a nasty surprise: bed bugs. The rooms are old and smell bad, and that alone makes this hostel impossible for me to recommend. Bed bugs are a real dealbreaker, and could leave you bringing home an awful souvenir.
