Very clean, has a pool only stayed a night but even if I stayed longer the hostel still would’ve been really good to stay in!

Stayed in the 4 bed female dorm for 4 nights and had a great time. The hostel is steps away from the beach and walking distance to some really great restaurants. The room I stayed in had its own bathroom and AC which was major compared to the hangover in Ella. The beds were comfortable and the room was cleaned each day I was there. The family dinner was great the 2 times it happened but the pregame before the “pub crawl” could have been better. It was very boring (card games/jenga) and did not really hype up or get everyone in the mood or the night. The parties in the area are a hit or miss depending on the type of music you enjoy. Other than that, the workers are very kind and provided me with information on how to get back to negombo.

I stayed at Costel Mirrisa twice and both experiences were absolutely wonderful. The place is extremely clean and well-maintained, and the staff are incredibly kind, friendly, and welcoming. What truly made my stay special was their hospitality — one morning they even brought me a homemade local breakfast from their own home, which was such a thoughtful gesture. They also gave me a handmade keychain as a gift, which I truly appreciated. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a cozy, clean stay with warm and genuine hosts!

Incredibly amazing staff. I felt like they really cared for me and that they would take care of me no matter what I needed. The community there was amazing as well. Very friendly travelers, lots of great activities from open mics to ping pong tournaments to board game nights. Great location near some solid surf. Comfortable queen beds in the dorms! Amazing pizza and even a projector room where we had cozy movie nights!
