Very Clean Accommodation with Home Comforts
Very clean and well maintained hotel with friendly staff who served the customers with a service oriented focus and warmth. Rooms were cleaned daily and customer requests were attended to with promptness. The restaurant caters meals and beverages, made to the customer specifications to accommodate dietary needs. The (well maintained) lush and green shrubs which adorn the hotel premises certainly add value to your stay as they not only help to purify the surrounding air but also gives a sense of serenity and a relaxing atmosphere. The lounge and sitting areas are tastefully furnished and maintained. The hotel is within a few minutes walking distance to shops, food outlets and transport.

Good location ... a bit out of the heart of colombo near the wellawata mosque. City center and galle face were about 15 minutes away by cab. There are non touristy restaurants and shops close by which is helpful. Breakfast was good. Fast Internet.

This is one of the cleanest places I've stayed in Sri Lanka. The hotel was in great condition, located between the city centreand Mount Lavinia the 4 beds dorm has good a/c and lockers; spotless bathroom+shower is right across the room. The only downside is its wifi reception; I was sitting right next to the router and still signal was weak, so no surprise there were none in the room.
