There werent a lot of showers. However I stayed here 3 nights and never had to wait!

The location was perfect. Not in the crazy centre but still quite central and its near the lake which makes it a beautiful walk into town. The staff is literally amazing. Super helpful and its such a good deal staying here. Breakfast and dinner included and the hostel itself isnt big which makes it easy to connect with other travellers. Super nice vibes. Would very much recommend.

Flooring was ripped, bed sheets looked a little tired.

Private room with good aircon. Convenient location. Reasonable tours offered around the city. Cooking demonstrations in the evening were informative. Nice to have a pool. Price was very good value as it included breakfast and evening meal. Very friendly people who gave you some good advice.

Only negative is the rooms did have a slight damp smell if they were not one of the balcony rooms that had a door that could open for fresh air

The staff are incredibly welcoming and are willing to help with any request big or small, guaranteed you were always greeted with a smile! The property is as listed on the website and includes all extras, including the perks of breakfast, lunch and cooking classes. They always made everyone feel at home and the dinners every night were divine. The hostel is only a short walk into town and is in a quiet area of Kandy. Highly recommend booking an extra day to spend by the pool! Thank you so much for a beautiful few days in Kandy ☺️

The bathrooms could be renewed.

The free cooking class and free dinner are just amazing for meeting people. The staff is super nice and will help you with everything. I do recommend doing one of there tours. If you book on their website you’ll get a 20% discount.

I liked everything. Since l had come with some intentions, l would have not changed your hostel for anything else. It was very kind of you to give a very good young lad with such a pleasant helpful attitude with so much patience to take me around. I liked both the lads and that cleaning lady who were very kind to me.

I had only dinner. It was very good. That friendly, helpful pleasant attitude of the receptionist put me at ease because of that little problem l had. I liked that friendly, helpful, patient young lad who took me around Kandy. How l wish l had some more days so that l could be more relaxed and see some more places. The room was very very comfortable, nice and warm. Thanks ❤🌹a lot.

The free vegan dinner is soo delicious!! Breakfast is simple. The staff was extremely helpful and nice. But all in all really good price for the place cause you get two meals included.

The rooms smell a bit because of the humidity in the area

It was amazing! The staff is sooo helpful and kind and they will help you with everything and suggest you places to visit in Kandy. For such a little price you’ll have a swimming pool, breakfast, dinner and a free cooking class included which is just amazing! There’s also a nice terrace to chill and meet other travellers it’s just so cool!

Fairly old facilities that are probably due for an update, especially the bathroom. I also had a lot of issues with the powerpoints as they are very old, so I had to borrow adapters from the staff.

Good location. Delicious dinner. Very friendly staff ready to help you with anything you need. Also beautiful dog named DJ who is the owners pet dog.

The bed was a little bit rocky so had to make sure we didn’t move in our sleep! The chef for the cooking course came across as if he didn’t really want to be doing it but his food more than made up for it.

The swimming pool was fun (though I wouldn’t trust the water being 100% clean…). The food from the cooking course was absolutely stunning. The staff were a great laugh and very friendly and the aircon was a life saver

The first bathroom (especially the shower) needs fixing, also when you shower you always get the whole toilet and bathroom wet. The walls and ceiling in the rooms are covered with mold.

The people who work at the hostel are kind and helpful, breakfast was basic but good (jam, butter, egg, toast, tea/coffee), I really really loved their free cooking class, learned a lot! Makes it really worth staying with them. The rooms and the beds were okay, comfortable.

Great social hostel. We wanted to see Kandy but didn't really know where to go. They immediately offered us a tuktuk driver that drove us everywhere. We can really recommend Sanjeewa, amazing driver and very nice guy.

The pool had a lot of floaties in it, it could do with a clean. Also there are only two bathrooms stalls on each floor so there is often a wait time. The water was off for a day, I found this out from our people staying at the hostel, not the staff. It would have been nice to have communication from them on this.

The cooking class was great, as was the free dinner and breakfast. This makes socialising with other guests easy so a group of us made plans to tour around for the following day. The staff are lovely, they organised transport for all of us. Also I left my charger and earpods behind and they arranged for another traveller to take it with them so I could grab it from them in Ella. So so helpful!
