    Probably the stairs as the room that i got was in second floor. I noticed that there are few mosquitoes inside the room, though they provided the bed with a mosquito net. (I just didn’t bother to use it)

    The property is clean and huge the room that i booked has 2 beds. And the location is just few mins walk to Mirissa beach..

    I put my laundry in and all my BRAND NEW white clothes are now a pale lilac. I’d given instructions for cold, gentle wash (translated) and saw the lady put my washing in - don’t know what happened there but all the other clothes had been washed multiple times before. The accomodation does not provide meals like the ones in the pictures. To my knowledge the don’t provide lunches or dinners at all. Aside from the breakfast being good overall my toast was always cold and either stale and very chewy or was so hard it crumbled when you cut or bit it. I was given cold stale waffles one day which had syrup not enough for half of one. They were also tough - couldn’t eat them. There is no card access as stated - just a room key. At midnight, EVERY NIGHT, the gate to the driveway would open, scraping loudly over the concrete and gravel. Four motorbikes and a car would Cole through onto the property and the drivers would be speaking (at that hour of night seemed more like shouting) to each other. It was extremely difficult to get to sleep again after that. It would be good for the facilities listed were accurate. I saw nothing of them when I was there other than the laundry. THE BIG DOG!! Alright to properly wash in a convenient location it had no street lighting so could be dangerous walking in the dark

    I thought the breakfast overall was great - I was given a fried egg, two pieces of toast with butter and jam, fruit (awesome) one day I got three (cold, tough) waffles One day I was given egg hoppers. That was delicious! Lady who runs the place was lovely and so were the staff The lady (?manager/owner) made sure I had a ground floor unit (as the accommodation is not suitable for wheelchair access) or for me in this instance where I’d sustained a foot injury The accommodation was in a good area about a 15 -20 minute walk to town.

    Absolutely beautiful stay at SunnyPlace Guesthouse! The family that run the guesthouse are extremely kind and helpful. The rooms are spacious, beds are a generous size and very comfortable. The guesthouse is located in a quieter part of Mirissa but in walking distance to everything you need! Also lots of great places to eat nearby

    The toilet was very dark and difficult to shave in, but it was still not an issue for the price

    The location was great, just a little walk to the main street of restaurants and very close to the beach The room was a good size, clean and comfy. The mosquito net was the best we have had so far and you didn't wake up with it stuck to your face The owner was friendly and helpful, with a very happy and friendly dog

    We had a room at the ground floor and it was not very calm at night (engine motors, people talking). The bed linen was worn and there were holes at some places, maybe needs a refreshment.

    Very friendly host. Nice location near the center. Clean room, spacious. Good pressure and hot shower.

    We did think the breakfast wasn’t as good as we were expecting from the reviews, eggs were either over or undercooked (runny whites) and while there was mountains of food for two people (huge fruit plate, toast & jam and an egg wash as standard) we did think it was all a bit dry - like serving a plate of about 8 coconut rotti with no dal and or 6 hoppers for 2 people with nothing to eat them with. It felt very much like quantity not quality so it doesn’t depend on what you’re looking for!

    Clean & well presented room, comfy bed, friendly owner & staff, very good aircon, hot water & good water pressure. Nice seating area outside of room. Nice quiet area but only 10 mins walk from the beach.

    Place is very close to the center and to the really nice beach. Room was big enough, with AC, fan and fridge which was very convenient. There is also a net around bed so you don’t need to worry about insects. Owner is such a kind a cute person, she made us feel like home. Thank you so much for your kindness and we wish you all the best!
