Moderate stay with limited breakfast and horrible dinner. Don't opt for breakfast or dinner.
Pros:

Front desk staff and floor attendant were really nice, supportive and submissive. Location is some how good but entree of hotel is very poor, will have to reach reception through stilt parking. Felt embraced to fellow friends as booking done by me and not worth to listing price. Reception is also very small, adjacent to kitchen, with very foul smell of sea foods.

Cons:

Dinner was horrible, not eatable at all, seems don't have good kitchen facility. Breakfast, limited menu, only typical bread, butter and jam and omelette and that too limitation in quantity. We asked for two boiled eggs but they told, it’s paid. Then why breakfast was listed in website as free.

Friendly staff, but unfortunately the condition and cleanliness of the property did not live up to its 5-star rating.
Pros:

The staff were very friendly, attentive and helpful throughout our stay. They also provided us with an electric heater when we mentioned that the blankets and towels felt damp.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the property did not meet our expectations. The bathroom had visible mould, there was a persistent musty smell, and the blankets and towels felt damp. The windows were very dirty, and some of the furniture and bathroom fixtures were worn and in need of maintenance. We also encountered several trails of ants in the room. The breakfast was rather disappointing compared with other places we stayed at in Sri Lanka. Overall, we found the 5-star rating on Booking.com misleading.

Ad oggi non vale quello che costa
Pros:

La posizione fronte lago. Il personale disponibile. Le
Camere su due piani molto molto spaziose e con due comodi letti matrimoniali.

Cons:

La struttura poco curata e che necessita di manutenzione e attenzione da parte del personale. Lenzuola bucate e sporche, vetri rotti nelle parti comuni. Nella prima camera un rumore molesto ad intervalli regolari tutta la notte e dopo ogni doccia si allagava il bagno, nella seconda appena entrato
In doccia è caduta la ventola di areazione.

ذكرى سعيدة هنا
Pros:

أقمنا هنا لمدة 3 أيام نهاية شهر جولاي، كانت الأيام باردة، تحتاج جاكيت و أحيانًا هناك رياح ممطرة تحتاج قبعة صوف خصوصًا للأطفال.
نوع الغرفة كان غرفة عائلية بإطلالة بحيرة:
-الاستقبال لطيف، كان الجو بارد وأحضروا لنا مشروب ترحيبي دافئ
-يوجد مدفئة ولكن صوتها عالي (مثل صوت الاستشوار تقريبًا)
-الإطلالة جميلة
-الفطور لذيذ و مشبع (نهاية الأسبوع كان بوفيه وغيره كان الفطور الانقليزي)
-تعامل أصحاب المكان جميل وسريع وخدمتهم رائعة

Cons:

كانت غرفتنا باتجاه الرياح وسبب ذلك إزعاج أثناء النوم، طبعًا لا ذنب للفندق في ذلك لكن أنصح بطلب غرفة في المنتصف إن توفر.
