Lovely stay in Okeed with very nice and attentive staff
Pros:

This stay was super relaxing in Okeed! The host provided a lovely breakfast every morning and was around the property if we needed help with anything. The room was very quiet and comfy bed!

Cons:

The walk to Ella town was down a steep hill, but it was easy to get a tuktuk home in the evenings.

Super gemütlich mit wunderschöner Aussicht!
Pros:

Es gibt nur 2 Räume in dieser Unterkunft, daher ist es sehr persönlich mit dem Host und super ruhig. Wunderschöne Aussicht, super tolles Frühstück, wir konnten Wäscheservice durch den Host nutzen der es über einen Freund organisierte, dabei wurde die Wäsche abgeholt und wieder gebracht - toller Service für kleines Geld. Der Vater des Host hat uns jeden Morgen Frühstück auf unseren Balkon gebracht. Wasserdruck war super (vllt nicht überall in Srilanka, deshalb diese Info), Föhn wurde auf Anfrage gebracht, super großes und gemütliches Bett, keine AC aber m.M. nach bei dem Klima in Ella auch nicht notwendig. Der Host hat uns einen tollen Tuk Tuk Fahrer empfohlen mit günstigen Preisen

Cons:

Man sollte wissen es liegt hoch auf dem Berg abseits der City von Ella, Fahrt in die Stadt mit Tuk Tuk für 2-3€ möglich, dafür aber wunderschöne Aussicht und sehr ruhig. Das Englisch vom Vates des Host war wirklich schlecht, was die Kommunikation schwierig machte, da er hauptsächlich immer da war.
Internet hat an 2 von 3 Tagen nicht funktioniert.

Pros:

Вид с балкона просто шикарный! Завтраки вкусные. Upul и его отец очень заботливые, готовы помочь с любым вопросом и проблемой.
Пару раз выключался wi-fi, но Upul решал эту проблему. Во время поездки в Эллу мы работали online, интернет был хорошим

Cons:

Вечером всегда кто-то из насекомых пробирался к нам в комнату, хотя старались двери быстро закрывать. Не хватает балдахина или репиллента

Pros:

Элла шикарна! Мы приехали поздно, но когда проснулись утром, восторг был от увиденного! Невероятно красивое место, жаль, что были всего 1 день, я бы задержалась. Очень приятные Хозяева, тактичные и вежливые. Жилье скромное, но оно и стоит недорого. Нам было очень красиво и комфортно.

Remanso de paz en ella
Pros:

Hostel con espacio para el parking del Tuktuk, una habitación amplia, cómoda y con nevera, las vistas simplemente espectaculares. Mención especial al dueño de la casa, el señoor de pelo canoso, adorable, servicial y siemore dispuesto a ayudar, vienen pocos españoles y eso debería cambiar. Si queréis tranquilidad de bullicio de ella, buenas vistas, comodidad y trato especial

Very clean rooms, a beautiful terrace view, and a sweet owner — just note that there’s no A/C and a
Pros:

The rooms weren’t super modern, but they were very clean and comfortable. The view from the terrace was beautiful, and the owner was very sweet, even though he didn’t speak much English.

Cons:

I missed having air conditioning, and the location really requires a scooter, which might be tricky for some.
