Pros:

Very welcoming and homely inn by the proprietor. Fantastic views. Discussions on what we would like for breakfast and dinner - basically cooked to order. They also provided a tuk-tuk pickup from the train station. Couldn't ask for more, really.

Pros:

Room and Bathroom Cleaniness need more attention, it would be great to have a tea coffee maker and water bottle inside the room. However these are available in common restaurant area outside the rooms.

Peaceful stay with warm personal touches
Pros:

I had a lovely stay at Amaya Guest Inn. It’s a peaceful, family-run guesthouse with a really welcoming atmosphere. The host provided excellent service throughout my stay.

The welcome tea and cakes, enjoyed overlooking the view, were such a thoughtful touch and the perfect way to end the day. The location is also ideal - on the edge of town, so it’s close enough to walk in easily but far enough away to avoid any noise. A relaxing and memorable place to stay.

Cons:

Nothing

Clean and quiet with an amazing view, and a very friendly host
Pros:

We booked this place last minute and were very happy to find this place. The host is extremely kind and welcoming, and very passionate about the place he lives. We had a quiet and very clean room, and the breakfast was delicious. And the view from this guest stay is just amazing! Unfortunately we spent only 1 night...

Room with a view
Pros:

We loved everything. Our KING room opened onto the far end of the balcony/patio, so it was very private. Breakfasts were a mix of western and Sri Lankan, with wonderful locally grown tea. (If you need your coffee fix first thing, bring your own instant. There's a common kettle and cups to make your own). We ate two dinners at Amaya, and they were delish as well. The view is spectacular and the location is perfect: close to the center of town but a couple of streets over, so it is really quiet. Highly recommended.

Cons:

Maybe they could offer coffee? Or More cups, cutlery and plates for guests to make their own coffee and have their snacks. These are minor suggestions for an otherwise ideal place.
