"We are very happy about our stay: the house is in a calm area but not too far from the main road ; Suresh has been a great host and very helpful to plan the rest of our trip. We asked for a typical local breakfast, which was very good and we enjoyed Suresh's explanations on the different dishes. Definitely recommended!"

"Started and of course ended my trip in Sri Lanka here. The only bad thing was that my expectations for the other hotels/hostels/home stays got to high. My best nights were at this hotel. Breakfast is the best, the owner is originally from the UK. Free water, good prices in the restaurant and great food and assortment. Since a traveled by myself I got great help planning the start of my trip in Sri Lanka as well."

"No toiletries, didn’t feel safe, it’s in a corner of the town that is hidden and hard to find. It was sketchy. There’s a net on the roof of the bathroom so anyone can come see inside from above; no privacy. People can see inside through the curtains. The staff were nice. Definitely not worth it for the price!!!"
