最高
Pros:

ドミトリーはこの価格で朝食付き、しかも到着時にウェルカムドリンクとして紅茶を出してくれた。室内も非常に清潔で明るい雰囲気。ドライヤーも部屋の棚に置いてあり、しっかり鍵のかかる小型ロッカーも備え付けられている。ベッドも綺麗で寝心地がよく暖かい。水回りも非常に清潔。お湯もよく出る。気候的にエアコンは当然ない、そもそも必要ない。乾季に来たので雨季の部屋の湿気の度合いは不明。

Cons:

茶畑を登ったところにあるので中心部からは少しアクセスが悪いが徒歩圏内。

Pros:

Super sympathisch, die Jungs machen das toll! Es gab ein Shuttle vom Bahnhof Nanu Onya und für den Tagesausflug in den Horton Plains National Park wurde ebenfalls alles organisiert. Gerne Wieder.

Cons:

Leider setzt die Dusche das Bad unter Wasser und im Zimmer war es ziemlich feucht. Nichts desto trotz würden wir wieder hin, Preis-Leistung passt, da darf man eigentlich nicht motzen.

Pros:

I loved the people here. They were so lovely and helpful. The breakfast was really good and the location was wonderful. You were just in the tea plantations and the walk to the market was just 18 minutes or so.

Comoda se si ha un driver altrimenti un po’ fuori.
Pros:

Va bene per una notte.
Loro di sicuro ce la mettono tutta … ma c’è qualcosa ancora da migliorare.

Cons:

Struttura che risente della temperatura fredda e dell’umidità.
Bagno che quando fai la doccia allaghi ovunque. Colazione discreta ma si può fare di meglio.
Parlano poco inglese e nel servizio sono un po’ lentini. Abbiamo chiesto la colazione senza cose salate e ci hanno portato salsiccia e uova. Evidente il problema di comprensione. Alcune cose da sistemare perché la struttura ha i suoi anni.

Pros:

Lovely, spacious dorm with comfortable beds. The guys that work there are very kind and accommodating, and the Sri Lankan breakfast is great. It's a little way out of town, but worth the short walk/tuk tuk ride for the quiet and the views.

Best Hostel in Sri Lanka
Pros:

The entire house including the dormitory was very clean, as if they had just been built a few months ago. The staff were very kind and showed great hospitality. When I told them I would leave the hostel at 5 am to visit Horton Plains National Park, they woke up around 4:30 am and packed my breakfast in a paper box so that I could take it with me.

Cons:

The highlight is the location! It has a beautiful view of the city and easy to get to by tuktuk even though it’s uphill
Pros:

Would have given it a 7 as it has bare minimum facilities but gave a point extra for the hosts and another for the location.

Cons:

The hot water in the bathroom is inconsistent and difficult to control temperature. Bathroom has no amenities (handwash, shampoo, shower gel/soap, toothpaste or toothbrush). Although not uncommon for Sri Lankan hostels, majority places have some sort of facilitation for these.
