Pros:

The room was spacious and the bed was good. There was good AC and a fan. The location insidd the Fort is also very good, as everything is pretty walkable.

Cons:

It can be very noisy in the room, as it is next to the main "dining" area and the door is a normal residential room door, not a proper door as you would expect from a hotel room. Also, the door has a stained glass window, so you get daylight into the room that you cannot block out.

The bathroom is somewhat bad, with the shower in front of the sink and toilet so everything gets wet when showering. Also, we weren't even provided an extra towel for the floor, so the bathroom floor was just fully wet after showering. There was also a faint bad smell in the bathroom.

Wrong room description - be careful
Pros:

Good location
Staff was great and helpful
Free water bottles

Cons:

Wrong room description. It was stated that the room had a private bathroom, but this was not the case. It was a room with a shared bathroom. You should really correct this in the description of your rooms on the booking website.

Pros:

The hotel is located near the entrance/exit to the fort so you're a bit outside of the beaten track but all within walking distance within the fort.
Breakfast of Sri Lankan type is exceptional and a lot! Be prepared :)
The room has AC and a built-in shower/toilet cabin. Beds are comfy.

Cons:

Nothing to complain about.

During the day they kept our luggage safely stored and we could also use the toilet when we came back from the beach.
Thank you so much!
