Pros:

Tienen un montón de detalles para hacerte sentir lo más cómodo posible. Tanto la recepción (excepcional) como cualquier petición hace que la estancia sea maravillosa. No tienen nevera pero puedes pedir en recepción agua fría en cualquier momento.

Cons:

El único problema que hay es que las ventanas va con unas persianas de madera tradicional que no pueden abrirse, por lo que la única manera de tener luz natural es abriendo las ventanas y escapándose la temperatura interior de la habitación.

Pros:

The host was so welcoming, she answered a ton of our questions on arrival about the local area, which was super helpful. The staff were all lovely and always eager to help. The Sri Lankan breakfast was probably one of my favourite meals of our trip. The rooms were beautiful, location was great. Highly recommend.

A perfect stay to explore the Fort
Pros:

A small boutique hotel with only three beautiful rooms. Great staff and an excellent breakfast included. If you want to explore the fort, this is an excellent place to stay. Just wish we could’ve stayed longer.

Cons:

Everything was perfect

Fantastische Unterkunft mit netten Menschen
Pros:

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt und würde jederzeit wiederkommen! Die Unterkunft ist stilvoll, gemütlich, sehr sauber. Das Personal ist äußerst aufmerksam und zuvorkommend. Dilani hat uns z.B. beim Organisieren von Ausflügen bereits im Vorfeld unterstützt. Man merkt, dass hier Profis arbeiten!

Cons:

Nichts zu bemängeln:)
