Pros:

Bett war bequem

Cons:

Das Zimmer war leider sehr schmutzig es hat stark geschimmelt an den Wänden. Im Bad hat es stark nach Urin gerochen und durch ein großes Loch in der Tür zum Badezimmer hat das gesamte Zimmer ebenfalls gerochen. Das Badezimmer war extrem klein. Insgesamt sehr enttäuschend.

Pros:

Lieve familie die voor alles voor je klaar staat. Ook vervoer geregeld naar Sigiriya toe vanuit het hotel met tuktuk. Verder vonden we het niet echt een hotel maar eerder een knusse homestay wat we niet helemaal verwacht hadden maar totaal geen probleem. Ontbijt ook super lekker!

Cons:

Zagen in de badkamer aardig wat insecten maar dat is te verwachten met dit tropische klimaat.

Just OK
Pros:

They arranged a Tuk Tuk to pick us up at the airport.

Hot shower.

Cons:

Only stayed one night - the kitchen area was really a mess and we didn't trust the food preparation in that space. The window in the bathroom wouldn't close allowing mosquitoes in.

Pros:

Valju ruuporist iga õhrune 3-tunnine kava rikkus kogu hea mulje ära

Cons:

Esimesel ööl oli non-stop naabrite koera haukumine ja ulumine (kohe meie akna ees).
Kõik 4 ööd, mis peatusume oli kella 17:30/18 kuni kella 21 ruuporist, mis oli tänaval mõne meetri kauguselt majutuskohast tulnud valjult religioosset kava. See oli nii valju, et me ei saanud oma õhtuid nautida. Ei tea, kas see ongi selle koha omapära või see oli lühiajaline aga tunneme, et sellest peaks olema teavitatid, siis me kindlasti valiks teise koha peatumiseks.
Paljud kiidavad hommikusööki, kuid olles eelnevalt seitsmes teises majutuskohas Sri Lankal, siis nii minimaalselt puuvilju ja kohvi ei oldud üheski teises kohas pakurud.
Wi-fi oli väga nõrk, kasutasime enda mobiilset internetti

Verpflegung wie zu Hause! Sehr herzlich!
Pros:

Das Frühstück war unglaublich! Wir wurden gefragt, wann wir frühstücken möchten und erhielten jeden Tag ein anderes frisches Frühstück. Für den Preis wirklich unglaublich gut. Die Dame war auch sehr herzlich. Haben uns sehr wohlgefüht. In nur wenigen Gehminuten war der Strand, Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Preis-Leistung wirklich klasse!

Cons:

Ein Moskitonetz wäre klasse gewesen.

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.
