Pros:

Rooms were ok.

Cons:

Breakfast was bad. The lady of the hotel said she will have to charge extra to offer fish or chicken curru to have with string hoppers. She also said either fresh juice or tea/coffee and not both. AC was not working properly.. Not worth the money we paid.

Pros:

The staff was friendly and kind and the beds were comfy. The food was really good.

Cons:

The whole room was covered in dust and the A/C didnt work. It turned out that the A/C filter was coated in dust dirt and grime. I cleaned it and put it back. And there were gecko droppings on the tea making tray.

Pros:

Wir waren dort 3 Nächte und uns hat es gut gefallen, das Zimmer ist recht groß und hatte alles was in dieser Preisklasse zu erwarten ist. Besonders gut hat uns der engagierte Mitarbeiter gefallen, der immer half und ansprechbar war. Das Hotel ist etwas außerhalb, was uns eher gefiel, in 20min ist man zu Fuß auch im Ort.

Cons:

Es gab Abnutzungerscheinungen, die aber in der Preisklasse okay sind, das Hotel wollte wohl mal mehr sein.

Pros:

Personal amable

Cons:

Falta de limpieza por todos lados, las toallas dejaban mucho que desear. La cama olía fatal (de no cambiar las sábanas) y el baño no estaba para nada limpio. Nos encontramos objetos personales de otros huéspedes detrás de la mesilla (señal de que no hay mucha limpieza). El agua que te dejan en la habitación es del grifo.
Te ofrecen cena pero es muy escasa. El desayunos más de lo mismo. Sinceramente, no repetiría.

Ich empfehle diese Unterkunft weiter, da sie ein sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis hat.
Pros:

Das Personal war außerordentlich freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Verständigung in Englisch war gut. Die Unterkunft liegt 8 Minuten zu Fuß von der Hauptstraße entfernt, sehr ruhig und ländlich. Direkt gegenüber ist ein kleiner sehr freundlicher Kiosk, der kaum Wünsche übrig lässt.
Unser Zimmer war geräumig und hatte einen schönen Balkon.
Das traditionelle Frühstück war sehr gut und abwechslungsreich. Jeden Tag gab es frisches Obst und Manusha hat uns verschiedene Früchte zum probieren gegeben.

Cons:

Unser Zimmer war in einem nicht so guten Zustand und würde einen neuen Anstrich gut vertragen. Leider empfanden wir die Bettwäsche als auch die Handtücher als nicht so »frisch« – natürlich waren sie gewaschen, aber sie hatten Flecken.
