Wir waren froh, diesen Ort wieder zu verlassen.
Pros:

Die Lage ist gut. Schöner Blick ins Tal, nicht weit vom Stadtzentrum.

Cons:

Frühstück war nicht gut. Kissen haben gestunken. Es gab kein warmes Wasser und kein Duschgel oder Seife im Bad. Für den Preis so nicht in Ordnung.

Waanzinnig uitzicht wat niet verveeld
Pros:

Super lieve mensen die hier werken.
Elke dag een ander Sri Lankaans gerecht bij het ontbijt.
Prachtig uitzicht op de waterval
Onze zoon heeft cricket geleerd van de kinderen van de eigenaar.
Mooie ruime kamers
Rustige plek
Prima afstand om te lopen naar het centrum (ook met twee jonge kinderen)
Hele goede wifi

Cons:

Gordijnen waren niet breed genoeg voor het hele raam, dus ‘s ochtends was het al erg licht in de kamer

Fantastique !
Pros:

Tout ! L'hébergement est bien situé, dans une impasse très calme et cependant accessible à pied (prévoir 20 minutes de marche tout de même) depuis le centre de Ella. La vue de la terrasse est absolument incroyable. Le petite déjeuner y est délicieux. Notre hôte était absolument adorable et prévenant. Il nous a aidé à organiser un cours de cuisine Sri Lankaise dans un endroit exceptionnel et son aide a vraiment embelli notre séjour ! Je recommande à 100% Sunray Homestay.

Cons:

rien

Pros:

Отличный завтрак, хороший вид с балкона и с террасы для завтрака

Cons:

За 3 дня так и не появилась горячая вода. Много ступеней до комнаты, если тяжёлый багаж это сложно.

Kan kun anbefale dette sted.
Pros:

Fantastisk sød familie der driver dette homestay. Dejlig varieret morgenmad. Helt utroligt smuk udsigt fra balkon. Ligger perfekt og stille, men tæt, og i gåafstand til byen.

Incredible view, would gladly stay here again
Pros:

The view is sensational. Didn't know what I was getting into when I booked this place and my jaw dropped when I pulled up. The view of Ella Rock and a waterfall are stunning. And visible from your room and balcony. The breakfast was simple yet very filling and delicious. The family was very friendly and helpful, most specifically the young man who cleans the rooms and handles the breakfast. Despite no AC, I was perfectly comfortable with the fan - often didn't even need it (February). The bed was comfortable and got my best nights sleep of the trip here. I rented a scooter in house and did laundry as well.

Cons:

Since this is a family friendly place, there were LOTS of small children around. This meant additional noise and at times, breakfast was rather disruptive. Despite 3 available networks, the wifi in the room was not good. The owner consistently was trying to wheel and deal... a taxi ride, a tour, something. Just chill, let me come to you if I need something.
