Pros:

The location of this is amazing, you step out of the back garden and you are right on the beach. Some of the rooms look out over the ocean as well. We stayed here twice - at the beginning and the end of our tour - and they kindly let us store some stuff there. Don't stay here if you are expecting everything to be spotless and work like clockwork, but this is a fab place to stay on a budget. The rooms are clean, the showers hot and you get mosquito nets over your beds.

Cons:

The people we could talk to were friendly and all the written communication was fine, but not everyone spoke good English once there.

Solides Ankommen in Sri Lanka
Pros:

Die Lage des Hotels, schnell erreichbar vom Flughafen und direkt am Strand war perfekt für die ersten Zwei Nächte unserer Sri Lanka Reise. Hier konnte man toll ankommen. Toll ist auch, dass jedes der oberen Zimmer seinen privaten Balkon hat.
Das traditionelle Frühstück mit Hoppers, Curry und Coco Sambal war wirklich lecker! Alternativ konnte man Toast mit Sri Lankanischer Marmelade wählen. Der Schattige Garten direkt am Hotel mit Strand Zugang ist super zum Entspannen, leider nerven aber die vielen Krähen mit ihrem Krächzen.

Cons:

Das Hotel an sich ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Für 1-2 Übernachtungen reicht es aber völlig aus. Beim nicht inbegriffenen Frühstück kostet alles extra (Obst, Saft...), das wird dann doch schnell etwas teuer für das was es letztendlich ist.
Die Gastgeber waren freundlich wenn wir etwas gefragt haben, aber auch eben nur da und der Chef der gut Englisch spricht war leider selten anwesend, sodass wir die für Sri Lanka übliche Gastfreundschaft hier nicht hatten.

Pessimo stato
Pros:

La vista dalla stanza era ottima.

Cons:

La struttura è in decadenza e sporca, si vede che non viene tenuta bene da tempo. Dalle stanze al giardino è completamente lasciata andare.
