Fantastic Location, Fabulous Staff, Amenities Quite Dated
Pros:

The staff were exceptional and were incredibly helpful, welcoming and were available at all times. The manager is very good with English and all staff always said good morning and constantly asked if everything was good and if we needed any more supplies etc

Cons:

The hotel is quite dated and in need of a bit of painting and decorating and the room was quite small. I think a few paintings or art works on each level would make it look a lot more friendly and bright. Our level also had a vacuum cleaner and a roll out bed outside our room the whole time.

We were eager to try a boutique hotel with a good location and such great reviews. We were disappointed overall, and lef
Pros:

Kind staff.

Cons:

We had a poor experience returning in the evening - no key entry and nobody responded to the door or the phone for over 20 minutes while we stood in the rain. Small issues with the room - dysfunctional lamp/outlet, leftover garbage (plastic bottle from the last guest), hair on pillows, odd smell in the room / bathroom

The price does not match the reality
Cons:

Photos and reality are two different things. Bathroom is awfully dirty. "The terrace" is just a simple balcony facing the street. We were placed in third floor and we could hear EVERYTHING from downstairs, from people going up and down the stairs, talking and even flushing the toilets in nearby rooms. And constant noice of cars passing by the street. The photo of the pool is really nice, dont be fooled by it. We changed the hotel, so cant comment about the food.

Very good stay...few suggestions
Pros:

Really the stay was very good...concerned and caring staff members most of them...
Cleanly maintained rooms...
Hair dryer in bathing room...
Availability of Kettle, coffe, tea and sugar packets ...
Location of the hotel

Cons:

but the thing is there is no accommodation for Drivers and one of the staff even refused to allow the driver to use the common rest room, which is available on the ground floor....
Secondly, they give only 2 water bottles per day (300 ml each for 2 persons) and if required more, we have to pay and get....
If both the above are rectified....yes, it's a great stay....

Safe and basic Hotel for short stay in Colombo
Pros:

Hotel in Walking distance to several restaurants and close to the sights in Colombo. Very decent and quiet street.
The bed was very comfortable And all towels were clean.

Cons:

Staff was kind and helpful but professionalism could be improved,
no room cleaning in three nights .
Pool is very small , not for swimming, especially when kids are around too
noisy to relax for others.
So we suggest to change boutique to
Adult only.
Bathroom was too small .

Very clean and good location.
Pros:

Very clean and big room.

Cons:

We asked on booking for not top floor as no lift. Our room was on the top floor! 3 flights of stairs!
Bit of a mix up checking in as we had friend helping with luggage and guy on reception said he could not come to our room! We felt he thought we were trying to sneak him in.

Could be great - just needs some attention
Pros:

Decent location - very nice staff.

Cons:

Rooms and hotel very run down - lights not working etc didn’t quite look like the photos. For the same price we could have stayed elsewhere in a cleaner room. Cleaning not quite up to scratch room felt a bit dirty. Not great value for money

Nous recommandons Lavonca pour sa localisation et le confort de la literie
Pros:

La localisation, chambre disponible tôt le matin (après 13h de vol, on était ravis!) la literie était bonne et la piscine sur le toit est un vrai +

Cons:

Pas de matelas sur les transats du rooftop, un peu inconfortable sans
