    The view was definitely the best part! You really are in the clouds. The staff was very nice, breakfast also good! Only downside that there is so many steps to reach the place + very steep road, we were very scared while going up by Tuktuk! But this is the price for the beautiful view

    Shower broke on my last day so I couldn't use the bathroom to my room and got little sleep from the water drops. Owner tried to fix it but couldn't manage it in the same night. He provided me with bathroom access to another room which was inconvenient for me but the best he could do in that situation. The problem should be resolved by now as I also saw that the other bathroom had different temperature controls. Missing AC but which I was aware of when I booked the room.

    Amazing view from the balcony and in a nice quiet area away from Ella city in nature. Could walk down to Ella easily. The owner arranged transport to the train station so I didn't need to take care of it. Good Sri Lankan Breakfast. As I don't eat toast and marmalade they made me delicious Egg Hoppers and Roti among others. Some good local restaurants nearby. As one day it was really foggy I was provided with a torch so that I could go to the restaurant by foot.

    Accessibility to the location… but it offers such a wonderful view so that compensates the accessibility. Its best if you rent a motorcycle during the stay so there won’t be any issue about the accessibility

    Staff is extremely supportive and the manager at front desk is a lovely person. He drove his tuk tuk to help us reach the railway station at a very odd time.

    Absolutely nothing!

    The hosts were amazingly kind and welcoming. They gave advice on where to go and what to see, and I also rented a scooter from them. The view from the place is just stunning, especially at sunrise. It is a little out of town so quiet and peaceful which is just what I wanted. Excellent value for money!

    In future I would probably stay less of a climb away from town, it can be very taxing and while there is a shortcut, it's still quite difficult. You can take a tuk tuk instead but in future since you will see views throughout Ella, there's no need personally to stay somewhere with such difficult access just for the view.

    Beautiful view, room was decent as well and breakfast was generous. Staff very friendly and helpful.

    It was difficult to get to the location as some taxis struggle to drive up there. Thankfully the owner is happy to help if you just inform him in advance of your arrival or if you need help getting up/down
