Clean, AC, hot water, balcony,

The location is on a busy street and it can be hard to get around without a tuk-tuk (and they are overpriced if you don’t use PickMe).

Welcoming hosts. Nice open area on the last floor to make a tea or eat. They kept my backpack for 20 days while I was on the Pekoe trail hike.

Reasonable price performance ratio! We needed a place to stay for a bridge day before continuing the trip. The selection of the place was fine. We for what we needed!

The room is on the third floor so there are lots of stairs. We stayed here after climbing Adam's Peak. It's close to the station but we found the road too busy to walk so we took tuk tuks.

The owner was very nice giving advice, doing our washing... We liked the patio just outside of the room with a kettle and basic stuff to have breakfast or a cup of tea.

May be they could provide electric kettles and coffee/tea sachets in all the rooms and a basic cup board for clothes.

Firstly, remember, this is not a hotel. It is a home stay. So, set your expectations accordingly. There will be no room service, house keeping, bell boy etc whom you can call on demand and similar star hotel like facilities. This is a home stay with all basic minimum facilities. For backpackers and families who just want a decent place to take rest in the night, this is a good place. As it is a home stay, we have the family running the place staying in the ground floor. And the family members are quite sweet and try to make us comfortable. The best part of this stay is the location. It is just about 8 minutes walk to the railway station. Several restaurants are nearby. And the tooth relic budha temple is just 5 minutes by Tuk Tuk.

The shower only had cold water.

I believe we stayed in the same room that a reviewer 2 years before us with some negative comments stayed in due to the description of the room. The window only looks out at the stairs up to the next floor so the curtains stay closed for privacy, and you can clearly hear other guests talking and walking up the metal(?) stairs. We did only stay for one night to get the train in the morning but had no problems after 9pm. When they are walking through the hallway is the only times we heard other guests. We had booked a different room on booking.com but was shown other room options that we could stay in. The air conditioning was good (note that not all rooms have AC and may only have ceiling fan). I found the pillows were actually the perfect firmness, usually hotel pillows are too soft and unsupported. The owner is a little eccentric but he helped give us warnings about taxi fare scams and that we'd be better off walking (case in point while telling us this we had an Uber tuktuk booked for Rs175 to drop nearby the Tooth Temple, then in the tuktuk the driver wanted us to pay Rs700 in cash instead so we got out and walked!). The hotel is easily walkable to the train station - no need to consider a tuktuk for this.

Super value for money! The hosts were a very friendly! We could store a lot of our luggage at their place (because we went hiking) and they even put quite some effort to sent it to us via train all the way to Ella. That saved us a lot of time!!

The owners were really nice

Stayed in March 2024

Managed by a family that is very welcome and friendly to its guests, especially when we had difficulty accessing their laundry service, they took the initiative to assist us promptly. The offered prices with the provided rooms are very reasonable, and there are no issues. Although the rooms are quite simple, they are very clean.

5 minute walk from the train and bus station so easily accessible, but not in the main part of town. The top room had its own balcony (but it was raining so I didnt use this)/ The room was clean, and the wet room was spacious.

The window curtains were transparent which made the room bright and difficult to sleep at night. However, Vijetha is aware and she promised to change it.

Hospitality by Vijetha and her father-in-law warmed us. She cooked us fresh home made coconut rotis. It was one of the tasty Sri Lankan breakfasts. Big spacious clean room with attached bathroom. Pleasant stay. Family friendly.
