Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Very bad experience ever had , facilities are very poor dirty curtains , even floor did not clean for many days it seems . Better booing.com do some physical verification on this location before continue this in your application . I will never ever recommended this place for any one. Breakfast arrangements were very economical level no any selections. It can be purchased outside around Rs. 500 easily . Even not enough water provided . No staff to bring lagages to the room. Pool is very small and totally mislead in the photos.

Pros:

Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.Die Lage ist Zentrumsnah, aber durch die Kleine Gasse sehr ruhig.

Cons:

Das ganze ist in die Jahre gekommen und sieht leider nicht mehr so aus wie auf den Bildern.
Der Pool, der für die Buchung ausschlaggebend war, war leider nicht sehr ansprechend und hatte keine Schirme für Schatten.
Die Zimmer waren leider auch nicht wirklich sauber.
Auch das Frühstück wurde auf ein minimum reduziert, da wenig Gäste dort waren.

Perfect for one night stay !
Pros:

We booked this place for just one night, but it truly exceeded our expectations. The property was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with all the necessary facilities. Our room came with a private balcony, hot water, air conditioning, and even a television, which made our stay very pleasant.
A special mention to the manager, Dennis, who gave us a warm welcome and ensured everything was perfectly taken care of throughout our stay. A big shout-out to the entire staff as well for their excellent service.We would definitely love to stay here again!

Cons:

The only small area for improvement would be the breakfast options, which could be a bit better considering the price. Other than that, everything was perfect.

1 night stay in March
Pros:

Off the main road and hidden a bit, so you're out of the way of the main roads in Kandy. Staff were very attentive and helped us with our rickshaw. They gave us a heads up about monkeys in the area to protect our clothes and loose items. Room was comfortable. Breakfast was good.

Cons:

Bathroom had ants. And there was no option for 2 separate rooms, only one room with two beds.
