    Decent Stay

    Basic Rooms, No kettle no tea bags. I felt for the facilities provided the property was bit over priced. Only Plus point was the location of the hotel which is in central part of the city.

    Clean Rooms, Location of the property is excellent. Good and welcoming staff.

    The TV needed quite some fiddling around to get it to work.. asked the staff a couple of times for help, but nobody turned up.

    Super location. Walking distance from the Fort railway station. Also very close to the Dutch Hospital food joints, the Galle face beach and some good looking government buildings. Nice rooms and excellent value for money. Our family room was large and comfortably accommodated us. There was also a nice balcony. The bathroom was decent. Welcoming and communicative staff.

    Easy to find and such a kind and attentive staff. I was also able to exchange money here to different currencies which was very helpful. Easy to talk to other travelers as well with the complimentary tea/coffee in the lobby. The bunk bed was comfortable even being on the top bunk. The hostel provides each guest with their own towel.

    The bathrooms weren't always super clean - but we've definitely had worse ;) It would also be nice if there were more hooks etc to hang stuff/towels in the dorm.

    The premises are really tidy and clean. The staff was really nice and the dorm was also spacious. There was a lot of common space as well and a kitchen you could use.

    It's a hostel ... the room could have been a little cheaper. For that money it is possible to stay in some very nice air bnbs.

    This is a very good hostel. I had been having a very gruelling time at home with my extended family and was really struggling for sleep due to our living arrangements. I just needed somewhere to recharge and this was perfect. The lobby area had a very cool design. The staff were very helpful in recommending places for me to grab some food. Had I come for another purpose (e.g. sightseeing etc) the location of the hostel is also perfect, positioned in the heart of port city. The showers were very clean (for a hostel) with good wash facilities and hot water. And the room was immaculately clean with a very comfy, soft queen-sized bed. My purpose of going was fulfilled. I slept very well.
