Pros:

Das Bett war bequem und mit einem Moskitonetz ausgestattet. Die Klimaanlage hat funktioniert und das Personal war sehr nett.

Cons:

Das Zimmer ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen und eng. Das Bad war eher dreckig und sah aus, als wäre es nur mit einem Wasserschlauch abgespritzt worden.

Nice place to stay for a night near the airport.
Pros:

Great location - The staff was helpful and nice. Having the A/C in the room is a plus and the it was clean. The owner offered to take us at 4.30am to the airport with his car ( a but pricey though).

Cons:

The noise level unfortunately quite loud after 10pm downstairs making it hard to sleep especially when you have to be up at 4am - There were lots of ants on the wall.

Pros:

Just what we needed for a night after arriving at Negombo Airport. Staff very friendly, also doubled up as our taxi driver for our next destination. Room very basic but really OK for a transit night. Also got served a simple complimentary breakfast

Cons:

Nothing, just don't expect luxury

Great for price
Pros:

Friendly greeting and service. Very comfortable bed. As a solo female traveller I felt safe. I had also arranged airport transfers through the hotel at additional cost and was glad I did as hotel is off the main road down narrow streets and I think I would have feared for my safety if in an Uber or PickMe ride late at night. Property is gated and has only a small sign at front.
Breakfast was included in rate and consisted of 4 x toast, small omelette, two bananas and coffee/water.
For the price I considered my stay to be excellent value.

Cons:

Not so much what I didn't like but things to note. It's a wet bathroom (shower with no glass or curtain) so everything gets wet (but dries overnight). Only shampoo and body wash is provided. Toilet paper feels like rough paper towel. The bath towel was almost threadbare. I arrived with only basics as I was in transit so my suitcase was checked through to next destination. Fortunately I was reasonably prepared.
