    Lack of warmth and reception by hosts and very secluded behaviour, we always felt we were disturbing them if we ever needed to call or visit them for any help or guidance needed because of their cold responses.

    Location All amenities in room except iron was not there and we didn't want to ask the host again as their helper was always busy. AC is bit outdated just surviving Water pressure was a lot that it hurt in toilet and the space in toilet was not sufficient

    Almost no places to get meals within walking distance. Some cleaning between occupants was missed, such as used soap in shower soap holder. Wifi in room was not providing internet access, though they were able to provide alternative wifi with working internet.

    Mostly clean and quiet, and close to the lake. R Room had small fridge to store food.

    Bathroom was small compared to bedroom. Not much room when sitting on toilet. Shower has low shower outlet. Had to make sure doors were closed as Monkeys everywhere. I gave a 7 because of bathroom, but stay was ok for overnight trip to Kandy. Tv no go.

    Stayed overnight at Crystal lake. GPS directions from booking.com were close but out by a few houses. Property is further up hill by 300 metres. Room guy met me. Enough room for my car in front of property. Room up stairs. 2 beds, single and double. Fan and aircon. Wifi good. Kitchen area as you enter room. Small fridge, sink, kettle. Kettle was faulty so guy replaced. Bed was comfortable. 300m to nice cafe on main road. About 1.2 KMs into town. About 15 min walk.

    Unfortunately there was an issue with our room upon arrival as we were told something needed to be fixed. Originally we were offered to stay at their other hotel however this would of only been for one night and we would have to come back for our second night. We must of looked quite disappointed this to which they said we could fix the issue but we would have to wait 30 minutes. Also we were woken at 1am on our first night by the AC unit dripping water onto our faces!!

    Room was a good size and very spacious with a kitchenette within the room which was really handy. Balcony was nice to sit on albeit slightly small. Staff were friendly. Location was good for a slightly quite stay as it was about a 20 minute walk round the lake from the centre of town.

    Bathroom a bit small for the size of the apartment, but fine for a night or two

    Only stayed for one day and night, but enjoyed having a little "apartment", with a small kitchen and lovely balcony! Perfect location, we saw everything we needed to on foot, just needed tuktuk to get to train station next day.

    I booked an upstairs room with the balcony, but I didnt get it. I got an downstairs one, which was very dark. And had doors to the owners place, so I could hear TV, their talk ….everything. Beside the house is a school, and the kids played every morning football and were really noisy.

    Good location, near center.

    Nothing to complain about. The kitchenette could be improved with a little more cooking facilities, but for us it was perfectly fine and it was more than we expected.

    Clean and spacious apartment with 1 comfortable double bed and 1 single bed, hot shower, towels, toilet paper, AC and fan, Moskito net. Kitchenette with electric kettle and fridge. Quiet location close to the lake and a bus station or a 15min walk into town. We paid 15$ a night which is worth it. Everything was as described or shown on the pictures. Easy check-in and check-out procedure, definitely recommend.

    Bathroom a bit small for the size of the apartment but it's ok for one or two nights.

    Great place, friendly staff, had a room with private bathroom and there is hot water available. the room was very clean and well kept. There's a small kitchen for the apartment and nice to having a fridge and kettle. It's a less than 5 min walk to the lake. TV and free Wi-Fi available. Worth for the money.

    Hosts had difficulties with getting things clear with the website. They either did not understand the fact that we did book a room in advance or could not see it. They just kept us outside with bags for 10 mins. In the evening we again had to wait for them to open the gates they closed because of the dog, although we repeatedly asked to let us in as we were not afraid of the lovely dog. They simply did not care. Bedsheets did not seem very clean.

    Hosts provided soap, toilet paper and towels. The room was fine all in all.
