Friendly and helpful host, but the aircon/fan was noisy
Pros:

Nice location and friendly host, they helped us arrange a taxi to the airport and gave us a breakfast to go early in the morning (04:00am). Good price.

Cons:

The aircondition and the fan was making a lot of noise, the water from the shower had a weird smell and the water from the sink ran out on the floor. Mosquito net was missing. Some spider web in the ceiling ;)

Útil para cortas estancias
Pros:

El personal es súper amable, te ayudan en todo lo que necesites. La casa está muy bien ubicada a escasos metros de la playa y en la calle Lewis a unos 15’ andando del centro de Negombo.

Cons:

La limpieza debería de supervisarse mejor, debajo de la cama se ve que hay termitas devorando el somier, el baño estaba realmente sucio y la presión de la ducha y el agua caliente solo funcionó según llegamos.

Pros:

Muy bien todo.
La ubicación es perfecta, porque está al lado de la playa, y a un paseo a pié del centro: mercado del pescado seco...
El desayuno tambien está muy bien: fruta, tostadas., creps...y unos creps amarillos rellenos de dulce de coco, típicos de Sri Lanka que estaban genial.
Nosotros alquilamos un tuktuk justo al lado, y se puede aparcar dentro.
También te recogen y llevan al aeropuerto por un buen precio.

Cons:

El desayuno empieza muy tardé, a las 8.30....y en Sri Lanka amanece muy temprano y a las 18.00 es de noche.
Pero bueno, al final nos prepararon el desayuno un poco antes.
Gracias.

Great location, 25-30 min from the airport in tuk tuk. The owner took us to the airport in the morning, they prepared an early breakfast. Very close to a great restaurant (Zen something...).

Habitación cómoda cerca del aeropuerto
Pros:

Los dueños fueron muy agradables, nos consiguieron el conductor que nos llevó desde el aeropuerto, nos prepararon un pequeño desayuno porque nos íbamos temprano y nos hicieron un descuento

Cons:

Encontré algunas telarañas en la habitación y costaba entenderse con la mujer porque apenas habla inglés aunque te puedes comunicar con la hija por teléfono

Pros:

I stayed at this property for two nights and found it to be excellent value for money. The room was clean, comfortable, and came with both air conditioning and a fan. The hosts were incredibly kind and served a lovely breakfast each morning. Tucked away down a small road off the main street, the location is quiet yet still very convenient—just a short walk to cafes, restaurants, and right across the road from the beach.

Outstanding stay
Pros:

Property was in a fantastic location - a very short walk away from the beach and close to nice restaurants. I also used the spa that was very nearby and didn’t need to book an appointment. My room was very clean, comfortable and the water in the shower was hot! Staff were also extremely friendly and even drove me to the airport at 01.15am! Would highly recommended.
