Pros:

Fint hotel med god restaurant. Der var dog flere ting på menukortet der ikke var tilgængelige, hvilket er irriterende. Stor buffet, som dog var for dyr.

Cons:

Dyr buffet.
Af uforklarlige årsager skulle man have morgenmad på værelset den ene dag og i restauranten den næste.
Personalet var lidt for "fine" de troede at de var meget vigtige.
Badeværelset blev oversvømmet når man tog bad da risten i badet er placeret for højt, og desuden er stoppet.

Va bene se “di passaggio”
Pros:

Abbiamo viaggiato in moto e questo hotel è stato scelto perché lungo il percorso Ella-Negombo. Ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo

Cons:

Staff impreparato; dopo aver fatto la doccia il bagno era praticamente allagato a causa dell’acqua che fuoriusciva dal box doccia, ristorante aperto anche ad avventori esterni e quindi molto affollato. Già a colazione musica ad alto volume.
