Pros:

Hôte très très sympathique nous a tout de suite très bien accueilli et nous nous sommes senti à l'aise, très arrangeant et prêt pour nous aider. Un peu excentré du centre mais cest vite oublié grâce au tuk tuk qui vient jusque devant la maison pour quelques centimes. Nous avons passé un très bon moment et recommandons chaudement cette chambre. Nous avons pris le repas du soir à la maison et pu échanger avec les hôtes, un dès moment que j'ai préféré de mon voyage! Merci

Cons:

Légèrement excentré du centre mais rien de trop dérangeant non plus grâce aux tuk tuk

At home in srilanka
Pros:

今回初めてのスリかランカで2泊お世話になりました。
とてもアットホームでおもてなしの心をとても感じ
彼らを通じてスリランカがより好きになりました。
食事も美味しく調理するところを見せてくれたり、
ガーデンには数種類のスパイス、ハーブ、マンゴー、ジャックフルーツ、コーヒー、と栽培されており、
それらを美味しく頂きました！
またキャンディに来る際は訪れたいです。

Pros:

Molt bona casa a un lloc tranquil de Kandy. El propietari molt acollidor i ens va preparar un sopar i esmorzar deliciós. Molts dels productes eren fets per ell (cafè, melmelada...)

Cons:

Lluny del centre tot i que amb tuk tuk s'hi arriba ràpid i sense cap problema.

Muy bien!
Pros:

Señor muy amabale, atento y amigable. Nos ha ayudado en todo lo que ha podido. Desayuno abundante y delicioso. Habitación con todo lo que necesitas y fuera del bullicio de Kandy. Es una buena opción si tienes alquilado tuk tuk o moto ya que hay parking. Nos ha gustado mucho!! Repetiría, muchas gracias!!

Cons:

Todo ok

Bad
Pros:

We never actually stayed there as the tuktuk driver could not find it, and the Google map was vague and unhelpful.

Cons:

We rang the number thrice, but got no response. The fool who manages tge place wasted our time, and a taxi fare, and we had to go elsewhere

Cozy and affordable stay in Kandy
Pros:

We stayed in Kandy for two nights in this lovely house. The two brothers who run it are really kind and helpful and make you feel welcomed in every way.
It was really a pleasure to chat with them, taste their dishes and hear their stories. We recommend all travellers who are thinking of spending a few nights in Kandy to stop by here.

Stay here if you want a home away from home!
Pros:

The owner was really friendly and his sister was an amazing cook. I enjoyed staying at their place because it felt like a home!

Cons:

The location was further away from the center than it was advertised but a short tuktuk ride brings you to the center quickly.
