Pros:

Amazing view and fresh cold air all the time , the best location on the top of the mountains, very good for nature and hiking lovers.
The team is nice and helpful all the time, so you feel that you are at home..
Different experience in a different place!

Cons:

Housekeeping needs a lot of improvement , especially towels, linens , pest control inside, and outside the rooms.
Very limited breakfast items.
Big windows need more thick curtains for privacy in some rooms.
No fridge in the room.

Pros:

Beautiful hotel, beautiful sunset on balconey. Beautiful room. Better than a lot of 5 stars hotels I ve stayed in. Great service, very thoughful with everythingthat is arranged.

I left feeling like I didnt pay enough for my stay.

Cons:

Nothing.

Nice and tranquil
Pros:

Really tranquil and nice place, and the owner is really lovely and nice guy, its a bit far from the city centre but its such a good view and so quite that its then easy to get a tuk tuk into town

Cons:

Just be careful of the bottled water, i got very sick from a bottle of water in the hotel, i had opened it at night and when i got up in the morning and looked at the bottle it was murky.

Male. Mi dispiace!
Pros:

La vista e lo staff, molto gentile e ospitale, solo per questo mi dispiace lasciare una brutta recensione ma lo faccio in modo propositivo sperando che aiuti a migliorare le cose.

Cons:

Prima di tutto non merita assolutamente il voto alto su Booking, dovrebbe essere tra il 6 e il 7.

La stanza non era la stessa delle foto della prenotazione, quella che ci hanno dato era più grande ma aveva una serie di problemi:

- Le tende non oscurano bene le grosse finestre, la mattina ti svegli per la troppa luce.
- molte piccole formiche presenti in stanza, vari insetti tra cui un grosso ragno dall'aspetto non troppo amichevole.
- le lenzuola erano pulite ma sotto il materasso era sporco con un cattivo odore.
- la porta della stanza dava sulla sala delle colazioni, si sentono molto tutte le voci e i rumori di chi fa colazione prima di te.
- il bagno aveva un arredamento sgangherato e poteva essere sicuramente più pulito.

È vero, costa poco, ma questo non significa che debba avere tutti questi problemi.

Pros:

Αν βρεθείτε στην Κάντυ πρέπει οπωσδήποτε να μείνετε σε αυτο το ξενοδοχείο!!! Το δωμάτιό μας ήταν τεράστιο,πάρα πολυ καθαρό με φανταστική θέα! Ο ιδιοκτήτης ήταν τόσο ευχάριστος, χαμογελαστός και πρόθυμος να μας εξυπηρετήσει σε ό.τι του ζητήσαμε. Το πρωινό ήταν πλούσιο και η τιμή του ήταν πολύ χαμηλή σε σχέση με αυτό που μας πρόσφερε! Προτείνεται ανεπιφύλακτα!

Cons:

Δεν έχω να γράψω τίποτα αρνητικό!

Una pena no pasar más días aquí
Pros:

El hombre era encantador, la habitación es inmensa y el baño muy amplio, ambos muy limpios y con todas las facilidades. El desayuno es abundante. Las vistas inmejorables. Solo estuvimos una noche y nos hubiera gustado quedarnos más.

Cons:

Al estar tan apartado era complicado el tema de los tuktuks pero el hombre te ayuda en todo y lo facilita.

スタッフがとても良いです。女性一人旅のお客さんもいました。
Pros:

朝食付き・夕食なしのプランで3泊しました。内2泊は当日夕食をお願いしてしまいましたが、受け入れてくれました。最終日は連絡が遅すぎて無理でした。どうしても当日にお願いする場合は、準備に2時間かかるので早めにお知らせした方が良いです。朝早く朝食のお弁当も作ってくれました。ブッキングドットコムでメッセージすると、すぐに連絡をくれます。優しくてとても助かりました。

Cons:

施設は古めで、湿気が籠る感じがありました。しかし体調に困るほどではありませんでした。

A beautiful location with stunning views over Kandy and the surrounding mountains. It gave ample opportunities to take in the beautiful sunsets. The room albeit a little dated was clean, spacious and the staff were very friendly. Food was nice
