If you like to sleep in an ashtray - this is it!
Even though "No Smoking" signs are placed on the walls - the corridors and the room smelled like an ashtray. The room is much smaller that the picture leads yo auto believe - the Air-conditioner - Oh well.... good to heat up a snake NOT to cool the room. Sad choice.

Nice enough, clean, good location
Well located in one of the fast-disappearing old neighbourhoods of inner Colombo. Go for a walk in the quieter back streets around here. Plus it's across the road from Burger's King, a very hip spot for richer locals. Rooms at back are much quieter but a bit claustrophobic. Note that Google Maps has this hotel in slightly the wrong place.

Dont stay in the street side rooms.
There were bugs in the bathroom and it was wet when we came in. We asked to switch rooms but they were fully booked. Our friends had a room that was just fine and had a newer bathroom. The room was on the street and from 2am to 4 am there was a loud soccer game in the street.

Good location. Dirty Very smelly bathroom. Noisy
Poorly maintained. Stairs not complete. Staff indifferent to lazy. Much road noise in room. Room space and layout good. Dirty crockery and bath mats left in hallway and stairs for many hours (10+). Bath mat and shower curtain filthy. Had to fix shower mount myself though took seconds to fix with a screwdriver. Lift out of action for many hours with lift shaft open and only a chair to prevent an accident.

Review on experience
i had stayed 24 nights. My experience with this hotel was average. Free breakfast was pathetic. Only bread, jam, butter and omlet everyday. All rooms TV not working. Set top box have problem. This hotel is good for 1-2 nights stay only.

Great little city pad, close to train station
My partner and I stayed here in January for one night, we chose this place due to its location to the train station as we had an early morning train to catch. Hotel staff gave us a warm welcome and resolved the dispute with the airport taxi driver over price. They were also very helpful when we had a problem with the air conditioning and a fan was brought to us for use instead. Overall we would use this hotel again as a city pad to lay your head after a long flight or in preparation for travel.

Nothing special
Upon arrival a staff member went to our room and sprayed it to try and cover the smell, which was futile considering the damp and musty smell of the place. The room was unclean. Breakfast was basic but ok, 200rp tuk tuk to main station. The staff were pleasant.

おすすめはしません。
駅からトゥクトゥクでホテルに向かったが、運転手がホテルを見つけられず、ぐるぐる回った。メーターだったので余計に料金がかかった。チェックインはスムーズだったが、部屋は決して心地良いものとは言えない。狭く、冷蔵庫もドライヤーも無く、虫だらけ、枕は臭くて、バスルームも悪臭がどこからしてくる。ロケーションはコロンボ全体からすると外れたところではないのだが、丁度周りにスーパーもコンビニもなく、夜になると薄暗く、野良犬が沢山いて出歩くのに躊躇する。不便な場所にある。ホテルのスタッフそこそこ親切に対応してくれるのだが、どうにもくたびれており、ロビーで寝ていたりする。

Très court passage la nuit de notre atterrissage, pratique pour rejoindre la bus station. Le service très bien (acceuil/présentation chambre et petit déjeuner). Dommage que la salle de bain avait beaucoup de remontées de mauvaises odeurs.
