Great location and food, rooms need refurbishing
Pros:

Location
Food
Hospitality of Thenuji - Receptionist
Hospitality of Anusha and Chamila - F and B

Cons:

The bathroom was very smelly and stinky.
Aircon was leaking water into the bed which was very uncomfortable.
When we complained this to the Manager Manjula, he seemed to have brushed this off with his ever so technical explanations. He seemed to be so defensive about it rather than trying to correct it.

Puzzava di fogna entrambe le stanze .. ma emanava un odore cattivissimo .. non si poteva manco lavarsi i denti ..mi disp
Pros:

No comment

Cons:

Una grande delusione per quello che ho pagato… anche perché su Booking ho effettuato la richiesta di una camera matrimoniale delux con un balcone vista piscina e mi avevano dato un buco senza balcone e sono stati pure in silenzio. Quando ho fatto notare questo enorme mancanza di attenzione alla signorina nella reception “mi ha risposto che loro non riescono a visualizzare i dettagli della camera da me selezionata e vedono solo una camera matrimoniale deluxe per ciò non era un loro errore mi dicevano. Assurdo che mi hanno fatto pagare appena arrivato manco il tempo di respirare almeno mi hanno offerto un succo di anguria E dopo il loro errore manco si sono scusati finché non è arrivato il direttore del hotel che era l’unico che si è scusato ed venuto incontro cambiando però il giorno dopo la stanza .. pessima esperienza!!! Che delusione
