Best choice in town👌
Pros:

Sisi’s place was about the best choice I’ve made!👌 The location is excellent; which makes it very comfortable when you arrive by the train, as almost all of the tourists do. A wonderful swimming beach is located in near walking distance. Restaurants also just a couple of steps away. The room is lovely, comes with a balcony. It’s spacious, and so is the bathroom, that provided me with the shower of the year! Haha. Very strong, hot water. The bed also comfortable and has an extra blanket for the morning when the AC cooled down the room, and you need a little more than a sheet. The AC is not across your bed, which is important to me, because it’s unpleasant to get the air right into your face. Breakfast was also excellent served at a very nice garden setting, and it’s fun how you can watch the trains from your breakfast table. 5 different fresh fruits were available and a variety of yummy food. Lots of extra help was given generously by the host, very much appreciated.I recommend this place to fellow travelers, and I’ll be back. Thank you.

Pros:

Everything was exelent. Clean and big room, good and big breakfast, very close to the beach. The family is very friendly and helpful. You feel like at home.

Cons:

The accommodation is directly at the train station, so you hear trains. It's not often (not during the night) and it was no problem for me, but it might be for someone.

A really enjoyable stay
Pros:

Recent refurb so bright, fresh, clean, a comfortable bed and good storage. Excellent breakfast provided by the ever helpful Sissi, (we asked where the nearest currency exchange was, and he insisted on taking us there and back in his tuk tuk, and in the morning of our departure he walked to the nearby rail station, bought our tickets and brought them back to us. Sissis place is a short stroll to the beach and right next to a line of restaurants running alongside the railway track, very novel. A very enjoyable stay.

Cons:

It didn't bother us, but its situated right on the rail platform, so noise might be an issue for some.

Great host, great place, great value.
Pros:

Exceeded our expectations in every way. Great location, excellent host, nothing was too much trouble. Room is basically furnished but everything worked e.g , air-conditioning, wi fi etc. Good breakfast each morning tea/coffee, fresh fruit, fresh juice., omelette, toast and jam etc. Served different sri lankan specialities each day.. Coffee/tea making in room and provided towels for the beach 100m away.

Cons:

Nothing. The single track train line immediately alongside the house may bother some but not us at all, in fact it added to the character of the place. The air-conditioning and ceiling fan helps mask the noise. No trains ran after midnight.

Wir wurden herzlich empfangen. Der Besitzer hat sich um alles gekümmert, eine Bootsafari für uns gebucht und den Transfer zum Flughafen organisiert. Am Abreisetag, konnten wir im schattigen Innenhof sitzen, bekamen Tee, Wasser und ein leckeres Mittagessen. Super freundlich die ganze Familie. Unbedingt empfehlenswert.

Perfect stay
Pros:

Sisi and his family run a beautiful place here. We couldn't fault anything. This has been the most comfortable clean place we have stayed at in a while. Sisi helped us book trips and took us to the shop when requested.
Air con and a fan in the room worked well.
Just across the rail track you get to the beautiful clean beach. And just down the track you will find some lovely places to eat.
Absolutely perfect
Thank you sisi and family

Cons:

All perfect for us
