Pros:

Due nonne in viaggio. Purtroppo appena arrivata a Owin rose mi sono procurata una distorsione al piede, ma il gestore è stato super gentile e mi ha aiutata in tutto. Ci ha poi prenotato il safari e l'auto per spostarci a tangalle a prezzi competitivi. Raccomandato

Pros:

Ogólnie jako punkt noclegowy znośny, ale czystość i sam hotel pozostawia dużo do życzenia. Brak kołdry (wprawdzie częsty w hotelach na Sri Lance), samo prześcieradło do przykrycia, na moim łóżku powitał mnie rój małych mrówek faraona.... Na korytarzu pełno insektów. Dobrze, że to tylko 1 noc i wszyscy byli zmęczeni, inaczej trudno byłoby zasnąć.

Pros:

Se avessi potuto dare un punteggio più alto lo avrei fatto!
Sin dal primo momento mi sono sentito a casa, il gestore si è messo a disposizione con tutta la famiglia per far si che la mia esperienza fosse ottimale e ci sono riusciti. Prezzi per il safari più che ragionevoli e mi ha anche aiutato a trovare un passaggio alla prossima metà con sconto sulla tratta.
Davvero un peccato non soggiornare qui se ne avete la possibilità.
Continuate così Owin Rose! Siete i migliori!

Pros:

The room was nice. Please read the room description (cheaper rooms do not have air conditioning, as clearly explained on Booking.com). Our room had a terrace with a nice view of the rice fields. Even before arriving, we had received a proposal from the owner regarding the safari tour. In the end, we were satisfied with the tour that was proposed.

Cons:

The owner (as probably all owners of other hotels in the area) is very pushy about offering safari services immediately upon arrival. In the end, I really liked his tour, but I would have preferred a more balanced approach, especially after a long trip.

Pros:

Sehr nette und hilfsbereite Gastgeber, die mehr für ihre Gäste tun, als gewöhnlich. Die Safari, die ich über das Hotel gebucht habe, war super. Wir hatten einen Guide, der wusste was zu tun ist, um ein tolles Erlebnis zu bekommen. Und das Abendessen und Frühstück, das wir bekommen haben, war lecker und riesig. Absolute Empfehlung.

Pros:

Prostorné. Jednouché pokoje. Čistota. Výborná obsluha, vstřícnost ubytovatele, zařídil ze dne na dne safari a auto k dalším výletům.
Kuchyně patřila k nejlepším, které jsme během měsíčního pobytu na Sri Lance poznali.
