Comfortable hostel very close to city center and main bus station but quiet at the same time. Free breakfast and kitchen room always open where you can meet other travelers. Staff is very friendly.

Good central location, 15 minutes walk to the train station. There is a communal kitchen with free tea and coffee, and a simple 'help yourself'breakfast is available each morning. Bicycles available for hire. Friendly staff.

Helpful staff and great location. The roomiest dorm I've ever stayed in.

Good location in the center of Jaffna. The manager really goes out of his way to help guests. They rent bicycles, motor bikes, and can even arrange a tuk tuk.

Was in a good location, spacious rooms and good breakfast in the morning. Perhaps it could be a little bit more clean, but it's good enough for few nights.
