Good value and nice hotel/rooms
Pros:

Lovely helpful family. Rooms are big and very clean, amazing value for money. Organised our yala safari for a good price which we really enjoyed. They gave us advice on which bus to get and even took us to the bus station for no charge.

Cons:

Not much directly around the property but only 15 minute walk from centre.

Pros:

We had a nice stay. The owner organized safari for us and it was wonderful. We had an amazing and experienced driver, we got really lucky and saw 3 leopards, 5 elephants, a crocodile, monkeys, buffolos and many more.
The room was nice and clean. We had breakfast and dinner at the property and it was local and tasty.

Perfect stay, and had amazing safari organised
Pros:

Nice room with comfy bed and a clean (!) bathroom. Very friendly and helpful owner who organised the Yala jeep safari which turned out to be amazing. I forgot to organise an early morning Tuktuk to the bus station when checking out, so the owner very kindly drive me to it at 5am, which is just so above and beyond expectations. Thank you. I stayed two nights and would highly recommend and would go back any time.

Pros:

Due nonne in viaggio. Purtroppo appena arrivata a Owin rose mi sono procurata una distorsione al piede, ma il gestore è stato super gentile e mi ha aiutata in tutto. Ci ha poi prenotato il safari e l'auto per spostarci a tangalle a prezzi competitivi. Raccomandato

Pros:

Ogólnie jako punkt noclegowy znośny, ale czystość i sam hotel pozostawia dużo do życzenia. Brak kołdry (wprawdzie częsty w hotelach na Sri Lance), samo prześcieradło do przykrycia, na moim łóżku powitał mnie rój małych mrówek faraona.... Na korytarzu pełno insektów. Dobrze, że to tylko 1 noc i wszyscy byli zmęczeni, inaczej trudno byłoby zasnąć.
