Pros:

Alles ziet er prachtig uit, er is een heerlijke buitenruimte en keuken waar je gebruik van kunt maken. Locatie is ook top, supercentraal en toch rustig.

Pros:

Look no further! Perfect little gem in Hiriketiya, best place I've stayed at in my 2 months in Sri Lanka. Very clean and well decorated, nice spots for a work session with great wifi as well, and nice social common areas. I was in the room on the ground floor which some people say is a bit noisy. I thought it was actually very quiet - except for maybe the noise from reception in the morning, but not too early.

Cons:

Maybe some more shelves in the room would be good.

Perfect accommodation for Hiriketiya
Pros:

Great location. Staff were super helpful and always on hand. My room was cleaned spotless daily and all the facilities were in working order. There is a shared kitchen space for tea and coffee in the building.

Cons:

I had the ground floor room at the front of the property which was directly behind reception and the room door looked straight onto to the shared facilities. I felt like I didn’t have a lot of privacy coming and going from my room.

Pros:

The location was great and room was clean. They have provided kitchen and it was more like a homestay rather than a hotel.

Cons:

The bed were very small and not that comfy for two people.
