Good, and it's value for money.
Pros:

There are no food facilities available, but the location is excellent. It is very close to the Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi, and I would recommend staying here for everyone, provided they arrange their own food.

Cons:

There are mosquitoes, but they provide a mosquito repellent machine. It's best to keep the doors closed at all times; otherwise, mosquitoes will swarm into the room.

Pros:

L'emplacement est parfait pour visiter une bonne partie des lieux sacrés à pieds. On trouve pas loin aussi un restaurant/ halle avec pleins de stand de nourriture SriLankaise à tout petit prix.

La chambre est rudimentaire mais propre et fonctionnelle !

A good opportunity to see a local house
Pros:

This accommodation is a small room with two double beds and a nice bathroom with a western toilet. There are no shared areas. The beds were clean and equipped with the mosquito nets. These were useful as there are mosquitoes in the area. The location is very convenient for the sights, it’s just next to the famouse tree and in walking distance of other sights. There’s a small shop nearby otherwise there is not much else around. The street is protected by police to guard the sights and the vehicles (like tuktuk or taxis) had difficulties to reach us. We got a socket converter and toilet paper. For Internet we do not know as we used a Dialog SIM and it worked perfectly for us. There’s a nice garden around the house. In principle this accommodation gives tourists a good opportunity to see how the locals live.
