    People talking through the night and early morning , think it was staff as I was the only guest . I’ve paid less for 2 nights with breakfast in better quieter accommodation in Sri Lanka

    Comfy bed , good aircon , plenty of plug sockets , kettle in room

    Renovations outside past 10pm but we slept later that night so we didn’t mind. Even though it wasn’t personal like a homestay staff could still express some hospitality happy attitude.

    Good hotel room with all the amenities. Wifi and kettle with tea and coffee. Close to the city centre.

    Upon reaching the reception for check-out, we were surprised to learn that cash payment was required instead of the card payment method we had used for booking through booking.com. It would have been greatly appreciated if this requirement had been communicated to us earlier, perhaps during the check-in process or in the booking confirmation. Moreover, the receptionist's attitude was quite disappointing. Instead of providing helpful guidance or addressing our concerns, they seemed disinterested and indifferent.

    I appreciate the way the hotel room furniture is built and arranged, and the fittings are good.

    The lightings are very dim. Would’ve been better with bright lighting. No one came to ask or talk to us about the stay. Workers kept their distance from us. No one from the management approached us for any feedback. Very nice place but disappointed with staff and management as they kept a distance from us.

    Convenient location. Comfortable stay. Allowed us to check in and check out with small charge.

    We had booked different room! The iron was dirty, so when I tried to iron my clothes, they were dirty! The towels were wet! The bathroom door handle was broken! The room has a window looking out onto the hall, so it was light in the room. It was so noisy in the room! Other guests talking, walking in the hall and sometimes knocked out door during passing by! The facilities are old and dirty

    Shampoo, kettle in the room, good wifi connection, tv

    Wi-fi though free (which was great) was a little patchy. Good for messaging and social but not much else so do not expect a full digital streaming service.

    We stayed here for one night in February 2022. Chosen mainly as it was located within the old fort area a short walk from the main bus station for arrival and onward travel. The law courts and army base are very close. The sea is at the end of the garden and the main shopping street with supermarkets is a 10 minute stroll away. There is a restored Dutch cafe area immediately next door where we ate. The staff were kind and helpful. The room was not that big and had little natural light but was good value for money for a one night stay. The AC was adequate though a little noisy (turned it off overnight). The small en-suite bathroom was clean and everything worked.
