    Beautifully wooden chalet with a stunning view! Everything was so clean and it really felt like a home. Chamath was such a good host with good advice and a really caring attitude. Perfect to explore Colombo and to relax afterwards! Thank you so much and all the best!

    This home stay flat seemed very much like a home away from home during my recent stay. The room offered every convenience one could ask for in a home, and it was spotlessly clean. The proprietor was incredibly helpful and always just a call away. I'm excited to come back soon!

    Chamath is a wonderful host! He is super nice and caring. I had a cough and he brought me some cough syrup and medicine. He also gave me recommendations for Sri Lanka. Also the communication and organization was so easy. I checked in super late, but that was no problem at all for him. The room is spacious, the mattress is really nice and the shower has a nice water pressure and provides hot and cold water.

    It is a basic accommodation, some details could be improved, but again, it was not expensive.

    Easy to find, had everything needed, the owner was responsive and helpful. There was also available kitchen, washing machine and the rent was not expensive.

    I want to take this opportunity to say thank you for genuine hospitality by Chamath, before I arrived he provided all the required information, in addition he’s a gem of a person always trying to assist and help. Awesome service 😃.

    Apartment located in middle of the city, able to access many tourists places, restaurants, etc. I must say very convenient.

    Location is on a busy road and a bit far from most tourist spots. You'll likely need to use some transportation to get around.

    Nice rooms, comfortable bed, shared kitchen included with everything you need to make food. Chamath (the host) is very welcoming and friendly, helped with any question that I had :)

    There is no lift in the building. If you have some disabilities - just keep it in mind. The rooms are upstairs.

    My flight arrived at night and Chamath was in touch in WhatsApp and met me - it was very kind. The room was clean and cozy. The kitchen had all I needed. And there was a washing machine - I didn't need to search a loundry. There were some problems with the fan and the stove - Chamath solved all of them very quickly - for me this attention to guest's request is a recipe for success hotel/inn.

    I didn't love the location and walking around the area didn't feel all that tourist friendly.

    Lovely place to stay. The host is fantastic and super friendly! He has a lot of information and interesting things to talk about. Clean and comfortable, great value.

    Ceiling fan did not work at the time of our stay. A faint chemical scent in the common area, but you stop noticing it after some time.

    The host went out of his way to make us comfortable. He even bought a warm blanket when we asked for one. AC works just fine. The kitchen is fully equipped. There is a washing machine and clotheslines with enough pins. Even though the restaurant downstairs was closed, the host offered to cook us a pizza, and it was good.

    Host went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Chamath and his family provided the most welcoming experience, inviting us along to local celebrations and providing us with recommendations for authentic restaurants and activities nearby. Chamath was very knowledgeable and able to educate us on the history of Sri Lanka. Exceptional value for money. One of the best places we stayed in our three weeks. Will definitely be back to stay again! Thank you! - Grace and Jack

    Daytime, there was noise a little bit, since in bathroom there is no sound isolation from street, but it wasn't critical.
