Perfect stopover before or after a long flight
Pros:

The hotel was about a 10 minute, free transfer to Colombo airport. Our flight was at 2am so having a few hours to freshen up and relax after our last day in Colombo was very welcome and great value. The owner was friendly, well organised and managed the transport well

Cons:

The room had no windows but that was unimportant as it met our specific needs perfectly

Praktisch für Ankunft oder Abflug vom Flughafen - gratis Shuttleservice
Pros:

Wir waren nur eine Nacht vor unserem Flug in der Unterkunft. Praktisch dank der Nähe zum Flughafen, jedoch - wie erwartet gibt es in nächster Nähe nichts spannendes. Für Restaurants muss man nach Negombo fahren, erreicht man mit dem Bus in 15minuten.

Cons:

Unser Appartment hat ein bisschen schlecht gerochen, wir mussten also zuerst alle Ventilatoren anschalten.

Pros:

El dueño era muy agradable y nos recogió gratuitamente en el aeropuerto. La relación calidad precio muy buena y la ubicación resultó perfecta, porque está muy cerca del aeropuerto y a dos minutos andando de Tuktukrental.com, donde teníamos que recoger nuestro tuk tuk.

Cons:

No es un lugar para pasar más de una noche, como escala del aeropuerto, porque hay bastante ruido de tráfico.

Soggiorno comodo
Pros:

Siamo stati accolti benissimo fin dal primo momento: l’host è venuto a prenderci all’aeroporto al mattino presto e si è occupato anche di organizzare il nostro trasferimento verso la prossima destinazione. Ci siamo fermati nella struttura per poche ore.
La casa è ben collegata, funzionale e dotata di tutto il necessario. Tranquilla, pulita e perfetta per un soggiorno comodo e veloce.
Un’esperienza semplice ma davvero ben gestita, con un’ospitalità impeccabile.

Super miejsce

Mieliśmy do dyspozycji cały apartament wraz z kuchnią i oddzielną łazienką. Dodatkowo właściciel zawiózł nas na lotnisko. Właściciel zadbał o wszystko. Wręczył nam nawet szczoteczki zapakowane sterylnie

Cons:

W nocy było gorąco, klimatyzacja i wiatrak były dostępne ale momentami było głośno lub za zimno.
