    Managed by a family that is very welcome and friendly to its guests, especially when we had difficulty accessing their laundry service, they took the initiative to assist us promptly. The offered prices with the provided rooms are very reasonable, and there are no issues. Although the rooms are quite simple, they are very clean.

    5 minute walk from the train and bus station so easily accessible, but not in the main part of town. The top room had its own balcony (but it was raining so I didnt use this)/ The room was clean, and the wet room was spacious.

    The window curtains were transparent which made the room bright and difficult to sleep at night. However, Vijetha is aware and she promised to change it.

    Hospitality by Vijetha and her father-in-law warmed us. She cooked us fresh home made coconut rotis. It was one of the tasty Sri Lankan breakfasts. Big spacious clean room with attached bathroom. Pleasant stay. Family friendly.

    The bed was somewhat uncomfortable and the room felt a bit damp/stuffy.

    Very friendly and helpful owner, even provided us with a rack for drying clothes. Convenient location, just a 10-minute walk from the train station.

    The surroundings aren't great - it's on the main road, and it feels a bit dodgy at night. There's also a 10pm "curfew", after which the door is locked and you have to call the owner. He is a nice man, but it felt like I was a teenager again, and I'd rather have had a key.

    The room was nice - got the one that is all the way upstairs, so the view was nice and there was a small private balcony. The location is also very good if you're traveling light and are going to the train station, it's only a 10min walk.

    There is room for improvement in terms of cleanness, but all in all good!

    The Inn is located 10 minutes walking from the train and bus station, so very convenient. The owners are super nice and welcoming and ready to help. The room is very basic, please remember what you are paying for, the quality is related, but all in all everything was good.

    No AC machine available.

    Great location very close to Dalada Maligawa and the heart of the city. Secure parking available for 2 sedans. (Call and get it confirmed before you go). Very friendly and supportive family runs the business. Valuable for money. Rooms are bit small but manageable for a couple. Hot water facility available in the bathroom.

    the room was not as clean as we'd expect, it felt like they only change the bedsheets and towels. the bathroom definitely needs some deep cleaning

    proximity to train station - ideal for those who have to catch train early in the morning the owner is the sweetest man on earth i swear. really pleasant to talk to comfy bed, good shower nice terrace on the top floor

    A little bit noisy cause this room faces the road, other rooms away from the road are quiet. But easy to catch a bus and tuk tuk

    Very nice family, ready to help always! The room is good, enough space, has table, hot water, balcony, the bed is good and fan (no ac, but at night okay). Walking distance to the city center and markets
