Parfait !
Pros:

Tout ! La gentillesse d’ishani, notre hôte .

La chambre est très bien, climatisation, eau chaude avec une bonne pression et propre.

Mais une spéciale dédicace à Ishani et sa famille qui nous ont amené jusqu’à la station de bus pour nous aider à prendre notre bus un dimanche.

Good but far out
Pros:

Very quiet location. Large, clean room. The friendly owners helped with finding transportation and offered dinner on request. Good food.

Cons:

The place is really far out, more so than expected. You really need your own transportation or a tuk tuk to get anywhere of interest. Walking is not really an option, takes very long to get into town.

Alloggio immerso nella natura, proprietari di casa fantastici e gentilissimi. Una delle camere più spaziose in cui siamo stati in Sri Lanka e una delle più pulite. Colazione ottima cucinata dai proprietari.

Spazioso, pulito e gestori persone squisite!
Pros:

La struttura é nuova, molto pulita, con un bel giardino in cui vengono serviti i pasti e la colazione. La camera é molto spaziosa, e ha tutti i comfort.
I gestori hanno vissuto in Italia, e parlano italiano; sono giovani, gentilissimi e super disponibili, ci hanno cucinato un’ottima cena meno “spicy” anche se siamo arrivate tardi.

Cons:

La struttura rimane un po’ fuori dalla città, ma è molto tranquilla. Per ora non é possibile pagare con carta, ma il gestore ci ha accompagnato personalmente ad un ATM.

Soggiorno nel verde
Pros:

Camera molto grande, cena e colazione abbondanti e con diversi piatti, host gentilissimi e molto disponibili (parlano anche un po’ italiano!). Il giardinetto è carinissimo!

Cons:

Unica pecca forse é che essendo a piano terra potrebbero entrare insetti non essendo la porta ben sigillata

Absolutely loved my stay at Golden Gate Ceylon! The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, the room was spotless and comfortable, and the amenities were top-notch. The location was perfect, too - close to all the major attractions and with easy access to public transport. Can't wait to come back!

Bardzo polecamy! Cudowne miejsce i właściciele.
Pros:

We highly recommend staying at this place. We couldn’t find a single thing to complain about — we loved everything. It was very clean, and the couple who welcomed us were the warmest people we have met. Breakfast was wonderful, and the hostess is a very helpful and kind person. We will definitely recommend this place, and if our family ever comes to Sri Lanka, they will stay here as well.

Cons:

Nothing
