Prima hotel voor de start van je Sri Lanka-reis!
Pros:

Locatie is prachtig.
2 grote zwembaden een een kinderbadje.
Zeer ruim opgezet maaar een. Heel rustige sfeer.
Uitermate vriendelijk personeel.

Cons:

Iets verouderde kamers, maar alles is aanwezig of moet je maar vragen.

Enig minpuntje: eerste avond ging er een feest door met luide en livemuziek tot middernacht. Hiervan werden we pas bij aankomst van verwittigd, en dit stoorde wel door weinig isolerende ramen.
