The guesthouse is beautifully designed, the host was lovely and super kind. She explains many cultural habits from the country and shred her traveling experience. Breakfast was also amazing. Cleanliness at its best. The location is very convenient to both walk to the closed famous temple or take a quick tuktuk ride to the city center.

The hospitality from Mahesh and his family was wonderful—they are so sweet and always available if you need anything. The home-cooked food prepared by the lady of the house was some of the best local food I’ve had. It’s a very peaceful location, and I even met some great travelers here to explore Kandy with.

I stayed only one night and it was good. Comfortable beds and very cheap (so also don't expect anything luxurious)

Their rooftop restaurant was awesome! Had their breakfast burrito twice and think it was one of the tastier things I had in Kandy. They're more of an upscale hostel, so the rooms are clean and well-designed. A little pricier, but certainly worth it if you're wanting a slightly more comfortable dorm experience! Location is good, about a 15 minute walk into the town alongside the lake and about 5 minutes from one of the performance centers for the Kandy traditional fire-dance experiences.

The host was very welcoming and provided us with lots of great suggestions on where to eat in the Kandy area. The room and bathroom facilities were exceptionally clean and overall the hostel is positioned in a great location, only a 10 min walk from the station and 15 mins walk from Kandy Lake

Budget/ basic small hostel but amazing value. The owner is really nice and helpful. Spacious dorm room, lockers, plus towel provided which is a nice touch. Amazing location, central and close to lake and temple, a supermarket, lots of places to eat and there’s a rooftop pub above the hotel next door. I wish this little place good luck in the future!

The hostel is in very beautiful building on the hill. Nice view not far from main attractions and pleasant lake. Dormitory's a little too small with a noisy fan. Bathroom clean but without hot water. Bed confortable. No small light on each bed. A large clean room where eventually consume meals, but without the possibility to use own kettle.

The BEST hostel I have ever stayed in. Absolutely beautiful property with everything you could need and more. Jude is a star and so is Ajantha the tuktuk driver - makes the distance from the city centre no issue at all. Great food, great price, great place. Will be coming back !

The view from this hostel is beautiful. Plus the serenity and safety it provides is unmatched. The pool was a major selling point and I can confirm it is worth it. The rooms are also comfy and bathroom facilities clean. I loved the outdoor sitting areas, so beautiful to just listen to the rain.
