    1. Unfortunately for 2 nights and extend 1 more night, l didn't get high floor (Room204) and I didn't have the opportunity to open the curtains and let in the breeze because there was a local house across from my balcony 2. The electrical outlet panel containing the hair dryer should be repaired immediately 3. Plug sockets should be standardized in the same way. Round plug or flat plug

    1. The receptionist is polite and satisfactorily helpful with any questions I may have about how to use "pickme application" 2. The location may be difficult for taxi drivers to notice, but for me it's not serious because it's not hard to find 3. I like the lobby area coz, there is fan for relax and sofa sitting area to sit on while waiting for the car to come pick me up 4. The size of the room I stayed in was good (Room204) 5. The strength of the water system in the shower is good

    Internet and wifi very bad. Breakfast was supposed to be served from 7.30am to 9.30am but at 8.00am it was still not set, so we had to wait a long time and lost a lot of time. During the night I found insects in the room like cockroaches and I showed it to the staff asking for a discount as compared to other accommodations it was very expensive and I demanded a room without insects, they did not apply any discount to apologise for the incident.

    Very clean room, comfortable bed, nice and functional bathroom.

    The hotel claims to have an on-site restaurant in its profile, but unfortunately, this was not the case during my visit. It would be greatly appreciated if the hotel management ensured the accuracy of their profile information to avoid any discrepancies for future guests.

    Situated amidst a bustling market, this hotel experiences high daytime traffic and congestion. However, it serves as a satisfactory option for a basic overnight stay to recharge and rest.

    when we booked the room it says restaurant is there. But we when went to the place they said restaurant was closed. They can only provide breakfast. So it was difficult for us since we had a one year baby and we had to manage food from outside.

    The room was very clean and neat. The staffs were very nice.

    We arrived late due to our flight and the receptionist checked before arriving if he could already sent a taxi etc to make our life easier. Check-in was easy and the room was clean and convenient. Location is nearby fort railway station and the busy Pettah area. We could leave our backpacks after checking out for a few hours to explore the city.
