Nice little hotel, close to the beach.
Pros:

Great value for money. The staff were lovely and very friendly.
The rooms were serviceable but had no real hanging or drawer space, but we were only there for two nights so living out of the suitcases was fine.
Lazing in the pool with ocean views was a highlight.

Cons:

Not the most Ideal location. It's way out of town; there is a train that runs along the back of the property between the hotel and the beach, and the vacant block behind the hotel spoils the beach views a bit. Although I did see peacocks in there, so not all bad!
The pool was a little run-down. The stairs were loose and felt like they would break at any second. There was also a loose nail in the boards that was quite sharp. Neither of the two sun loungers was particularly usable, with cracks in the plastic or missing backs.

Very dirty and stinky surroundings
Pros:

The ocean view and the train running before my window, quiet in the night, the big room, very nice Wi-Fi.

Cons:

The view frm the balcony to a very-very dirty yard with a lot of trash, half-naked workers, dirty stinking water reservoir, loads of flies and cravens, stinky, stinky!
The swimming pool has a very nice view to the ocean, but stinky surrounding, constructions left and right and broken stairs of the pool spoiled the impression.
Very hot in the reception hall.
And I didn't feel safe in the area, nothing other special in surrounding.

Pros:

Nou na een lange reis kwam ik aan bij het hotel en liet ik mijn reservering zien. Omdat er blijkbaar iets van drugs in mijn drinken was gedaan, voelde ik me ontzettend beroerd en ziek. Omdat mijn visa kaart niet meer werkte, heb ik man gebeld en hij had opnieuw een kamer geboekt op zijn naam en geld overgemaakt. Maar men was totaal niet helpend ondanks de bezorgdheid vanuit Nederland en mijn slechte toestand. Uiteindelijk werden we gewoon genegeerd en ben ik ziek terug gereisd naar mijn host family Enderamulla Watthala. Daar heb ik inmiddels 4 weken gewerkt als vrijwilligster op een special need school. En ik had mezelf beloofd even te chillen in hun jotel aan het strand. Toch vreemd dat men daar totaal geen oog had voor mijn situatie. En samen naar een oplossing gingen zoeken. Hun Engels was ook triest, dus communiceren met hen was een ramp. Dit heb ik in heel mijn reis/werkcarriere nog nooit meegemaakt..en ik heb al menig hotel bezocht, geloof me

Hayal kırıklığı yaşadığım bir otel oldu
Pros:

4 gece kaldığım bu otelde tek beğendiğim şey odam ve resepsiondaki görevliler.Güleryüzlü ve ilgili idiler.Sıcak su ve duş harikaydı.Yemek çeşidi yeterli kadardı.

Cons:

Denize sıfır diye tutmuşdum oteli ancak denize 1 kere bile giremedim.çevre aşırı kirli ve çöplüktü.başka bir otelin çöplüğü otelin tam denize bakan tarafta karşısındaydı odadan çöplük görünüyordu.bu yüzden bir kere bile balkona çıkamadım.çevresi harabe gibiydi.Otel hem hava alanına hem şehir merkezine gezilecek turistik yerlere çok uzaktı.Beni en çok üzen şey otelin havuz başındakı restoeanında ceketimin kaybolması ve bununla ilgili hiç bir şey yapmamaları.O bölgede hırsızlık çok oluyormuş sonradan öğrendim.Ama bir otelde bunun olması beni büyük bir hayal kırıklığına uğratdı.Check out yaparken sabaha karşı oldugu için kapıyı kitleyip herkes uyumuşdu ve ben kaç dakika birilerini bulmaya çalıştım çünki hava alanı taksim dışarıda bekliyordu ve ben içeride mahsur kalmışdım.saat kaçta gidecegımı bilsirdiğim halde.sonra anahtarı koymuşlar onu gördüm ve açıp çıktım.Asla bir daha mecbur bile kalsam o otelde konaklamam.Sadece resepsıyon personelı beni mutlu etti.güleryüzlü ve kibarlardı.

Viel mehr bekommen als erwartet
Pros:

Ich habe 3 Nächte dort verbracht und war total begeistert vom Service. Man kümmerte sich um meine Anliegen (Wäsche, Adapter und ein gemeinsames Abendessen mit meinen Gästen.
Nochmals herzlichen Dank !!!

Cons:

Die Lage ist für deb Besucher eine Herausforderung.
Aber das Haus bietet innen all das was man nicht erwartet. Vom oberen Stockwerk einen tollen Blick aufs Meer einen Swimmingpool eine Bar.
Ich / wir haben die Zeit genossen.

Pros:

Lokalizacja bardzo dobra, niemalże przy samym morzu, chociaż widok z okna na niezagospodarowany teren z małym bałaganem wokół. Niemniej jednak sama lokalizacja wynagradza wszystko, bardzo dobra, blisko do dobrego baru ze smacznym jedzeniem oraz leżakami Shelton Sea food Restaurant. Obsługa hotelowa bardzo miła i pomocna. Pokoje wygodne. Cisza, spokój, mili ludzie. Polecam.

Cons:

Długi czas oczekiwania na śniadanie serwowane do stolika, a nie w formie szwedzkiego stołu.
