Great stay close to the airport and to the beach!

Stayed in February 2025

As with many rooms we’ve used in SL, the standards of cleanliness are not good- bathroom particularly. Could easily be a lot better. Also we were asked to move to another room for second night - the aircon (cost €5 per night) did not work properly and it was full of mosquitoes. Not great!

Nice place to stay for a couple of nights before flying home. Good location - easy walk to the beach and restaurants etc. Family are lovely and the breakfast ($4 per person) was great.

Everything was quite okay, the bathroom smelled really bad so we had to keep the door closed all the time. The owner was always there but not very helpful when needed. No food available.

The house was located in a secondary street meaning it was quiet at night and we had very decent sleep during our 2 day stay. Check in was flexible and the owner was happy to welcome us at 4am after our flight. The room also had AC and a ban that worked perfectly well.

All good, need to be a bit cautious with the bathroom floor as it can get slippy with the shower but it's manageable and suited our needs well!

This place was perfect to spend the night after arriving from the airport. Very comfortable stay and they were so accommodating with us arriving late from our flight. Breakfast was superb, highly recommend getting this here!!

Nice guesthouses with friendly staff. The room is big with an AC or just a ceiling fan. Hot water, toilet paper provided. Good location close to the beach.

It’s really close to the beach, the room was exactly like in the pictures but what makes this place amazing is Gloriya Mathews family! Extremely welcoming and kind people. It was our first night out of 20 night in Sri Lanka so I’ve waited with a review but now I can write it surely - it was THE BEST breakfast that we ate during our whole stay and what’s worst I tried to find those honey hoppers (or at least I think that was it) during our 3 week trip but I didn’t find anything even remotely similar. So take the breakfast - it’s the thing that you want to go back for. The picture just represents half of the breakfast that you’ll get.

The only downside was the mosquitoes in the room when we arrived. While not a major issue because of the mosquito nets over the bed it still made it a bit uncomfortable moving around the room the first night.

Very friendly staff, nice room and good location. We only stayed for a couple of nights before heading to the airport and the room fit our needs perfectly.

I don't think they can do anything about that, but there are tons of mosquitoes (like literally so many of them). The mosquito net has many holes.

The family is kind and welcoming. Breakfast is very good but too expensive ($ 4), I never paid that much in 4 months traveling Asia, but there's a lot of food so I guess it's a fair price. The room is ok and there's a fan, which is nice because it's so hot.

The bathroom was smelling a little, we just did not feel that comfortable staying there.

The owner got up in the middle of the night so that we could check-in. The room was spacious and clean.

The toilet seat was very loose. The mosquito net could be a bit bigger. For an extra 2usd you can get AC. I couldn't do it without since there is no air circulation in the room itself. But the price for the AC is good and they gave me a discount since, technically, I used it only 30h, not two full days.

The host family is really nice. The room is modest but enough. It's a quiet place, so you get to rest. The bedsheets were clean. I checked in at 5am, just called the lady and she opened for me. 1min form the main road, 2 from the beach, 15mjn walking from the big beach. Everything is very close. Overall, I would recommend it.

Had to pay an additional 1000 rupees to have air con per night.

Good room and hot shower. Friendly family

Nothing.

The hospitality of the Owners is sublime. The breakfast was too much and so good. A hot shower that worked. The whole place is clean a bargain if you see the price. Recommended. Beds are a bit short for Dutch people, but that's more my problem. Would come back.

When we asked about the airport shuttle they told us it's 20$, so five times higher than the price with PickMe/Uber

Absolute lovely and helpful family Daily changing, amazing breakfast Walking distance to "tourist street" and a calmer beach area Big room Super comfy bed

The room was very spacious and the owners were so friendly. They made me the most delicious juice I’ve ever had when I arrived. They were really helpful in telling me how to get to my next destination. Breakfast was huge and delicious.

The toilet is very small and feels a bit claustrophobic. There was a weird smell in the room with 2 beds (the other room was good), after we opened the window it was a bit better. The beds are a bit hard.

The people are really kind. AC works well and it is only 5 minutes from the beach. Breakfast is really nice. We also got a mosquito net for the bed.

Stayed in July 2023

The WiFi didn't work properly (but actually it almost never does in Sri Lanka...), the bathroom floor was always wet and the blankets were not very pleasant (it's the type that's probably never washed).

A large room with 2 double beds, the host was nice and helpful, there's a common area you can use and it's located nearby the beach and restaurants and shops.

Stayed in February 2023

We booked a room with balcony but that wasn't available.They asked us for money, immediately we checked in.

The kept our luggage until 6pm when we had the flight and asked if you want to take a shower.

Stayed in December 2022

Everything clean and nice, close to the beach and some restaurants. Stayed after arriving from the airport, for which it is perfect. Amazing breakfast!

Stayed in May 2025

They asked me to cancel the booking because they were having problems with their hotel. But they charge full price if we cancel. I had to send them 2 messages and that if they don't cancel on their side, I would have to make a complain at Booking.com

Nothing
