    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.

    The name of the accommodation speaks for itself - if you stay at this place you truly see the olden view in the morning. Absolutely magnificent sunrise over little Adam’s peak and Ella rock. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast delicious. Value for money!

    Staff were very amazing. Breakfast was very tasty, we loved having the fresh fruit. The view was beautiful and the room was comfortable. It is outside of Ella but an inexpensive tuktuk to get up to a close stairwell up.

    The road to the hotel is not for the faint of heart, but it’s totally worth it when you wake up and see the view.

    Lovely family run guest house. The rooms are simple, but they have everything you need. Breakfast is superb and the staff is extremely friendly and helpful.

    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

    The service and hospitality from the owner and staff was exceptional! Breathtaking views and calm environment

    Not all vehicles can get to this place because the road is narrow and steep. But the staff can come and pick you up, so it is not a big problem.

    The property really has a golden view over Ella Gorge and Ella Rock. It is situated in the middle of the jungle and you can hear local fauna while staying there. This is a real value for money - basic, but you have to take into account that you are on the hill in the middle of the forest. The host and the staff are super friendly.

    Location was a little hard to get to with a minivan through the narrow uphill roads in darkness. There was only one walkable restaurant nearby. Minor nit - even though the breakfast was great, they only had tea or coffee as drinks. Wish our little boys cold have had a fruit juice or some drink to go with their breakfast.

    Fantastic sunrise view! The rooms were clean and the wifi was great. The staff was very friendly and prepared amazing breakfast for us. Would considering staying here again in the future. :)
