I had a great stay here, the experience was lovely mingling up with a lot of other travellers and sharing the same space with them. Facilities are good. Best value for money. The caretaker Chamindu is a wonderful guy, always helpful and he would go beyong his way to help his guests. Nothing to complain about.

    The staff of the hostel was super friendly and helpful, extremely nice people. I was in a dorm but I had the room for myself. It has AC and it is super clean. The rooms are big, comfy and renovated. Breakfast was also included, it's a super good deal for the price!

    If you are a seasoned backpacker, you will appreciate this hostel. If not, you may find it basic. But the staff were incredible, so helpful and lovely. No hot water but you don’t really need it with the temperatures.

    Maria is an excellent host and always ready to help. The hostel is located really near to the beach and has good rooms. The common area specially the roof top is really pretty. You can stay here if you want to meet new people and have some fun parties.
