    We had such a lovely stay at McLeod-inn! They were so flexible with us changing our dates last minute. The room was super clean, had an amazing view of the lake, and the breakfast was so good and filling. They also have a shortcut so it’s only a 20 min walk into the city! Highly recommend!

    The shower makes the bathroom wet but we got an extra towel which was okay for us. And there is some noise when breakfast starts.

    The beds were very comfortable, the breakfast was great, we did not want toast and got extra fruit and eggs, the owners are very friendly. We liked the location, a short steep climb but outside hectic Kandy

    >>Night curfew - First, I didn't know about it at the time of booking. Second, I had to cut short some night-outs with my friends as a result >> Cash only payments - First, I didn't know about it at the time of booking. I had to borrow money from my relatives as I didn't have any money with me

    >> The location of the guest house was great >> Breakfast had a variety of options, I was also given the choice to pack some left-over >> Friendly staff who welcomed me and provided instructions on getting around the city

    Not a negative, more a statement of fact, a consequence of the incredible views is that a steep climb from the lake is required if on foot...or could just take a tuk tuk.

    Fantastic hospitality, host and family were extremely helpful and accomodating. Good location, especially the rooms with incredible views over Kandy from private balconies (common area also has a balcony with the same view). Clean rooms with huge comfortable beds, great value for money, with a tasty breakfast.

    We booked a room with garden/mountain view but our room did have neither of those views, only small grilled window to the street.

    Nice view from breakfast room over the lake and palace. Good breakfast.

    Please consider providing linen for guests as carrying extra luggage is a bit inconvenient. Dogs barking right outside our room interrupted our sleep.

    Our stay at the Inn was enjoyable. The English breakfast was excellent, and the owner and his family were quite kind. We appreciate their candour in getting in touch with us to verify lost property.

    Small room, so our 3yo kid needed to sleep in bed with us. All rooms are in front of breakfast area, so you can hear people from early morning.

    Very nice family runs hotel, want to help you with everything. Clean room with beautifull view and hot shower. Nice breakfast. At night is very quiet, not so far from city centre, 10min walk, owner will show you shortcut.

    The fridge in my room kept making a loud thud every 30 minutes which was a little annoying when trying to sleep, i turned it off in the end so it didnt bother me the second night.

    Really clean, nice location, about 5 min from the main street. Lovely people that own/ work there. Breakfast was perfect, toast, jam, eggs, fruit and tea or coffee.
