Das Hotel leider sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Wir fanden es nicht so gut.
Pros:

Tolle Lage zum Strand , kurze Entfernung vom Flughafen

Cons:

Klimaanlage hat leider gar nicht funktioniert. Es gab kein Moskitonetz und wir hatten deshalb Moskito und andere Tiere in unserem Zimmer.
Es war somit keine gute Nacht.

Pros:

Läget vid stranden och bra pris. Vi bodde i Beach Villa, lite slitet men stort och charmigt i egen byggnad bredvid poolen.

Pros:

This is a delightful gem. The location is very convenient to everything you need. It's also a little away from the expensive touristy area so it is quiet. The hosts are lovely. The beds are super comfy, and the breakfast was generous. It is western style, but if you give them some notice they can prepare Sri Lankan food. This was the perfect place to relax and recover from jetlag.

Cons:

Nothing.

Good value
Pros:

Kind and helpful staff, great location right on the beach and a nice pool. Aircon worked well and had hot water. It was a great choice for a quick stop before our early morning flight home.
