    wifi is slow and my dialog data also sometime didn't work in some rooms so I need to come out to common area for internet

    We stayed there for 3 times and we loved it. The room is clean and new. They have FREE laundry machine and detergent and they have a huge space to hang your cloths. They have unlimited hot water in shower all time and they have shampoo and soup. AC is working well. They have proper kitchen with free spices which other guests left and a big supermarket is right next to it so we are cooking every day. You can take local bus all time so easily to go to central Kandy city by only 30 rupees and buses are running all time during daytime. You can also reach there by 30 min walking. The owner is chill and we had fun conversation all time with him.

    The mattress is not the most comfortable one but I slept just fine.

    Really clean and great value. The common kitchen is a nice area. Yama made it feel comfy, with information about transportation, nearby restaurants and even a book where travelers can write their recommendations for Sri Lanka. Free laundry is a good bonus and there is a supermarket nearby.

    The room smelled a bit like mold but I'm not sure of it.

    Such a good price for such a good place. The owner is kind, free laundry machine to use, free tea, aims to recycle when doable. The location is great, clean, good wifi, hot water and aircon.

    This place was the best one I stayed during my Sri Lankan trip. The host Yamada is the best host ever. He is very friendly and kind. The place is very safe, clean and in a very good location where you can find anything you need in close range. If I ever come back to Kandy this is the place I will definitely stay again thanks to Mr Yamada.

    Nothing!

    The rooms were spotless, and having power adapters available was a lifesaver. The free laundry service was a nice bonus. Yamma, the owner/manager, was incredibly kind and always available to help. Highly recommend this place!

    Bright, spacious room; Friendly host Yama; kitchen with kettle and tea to use; free laundry is a nice perk!

    Second stay at Smile Hub Kandy and again it was excellent. The room was very clean, the bathroom was also very clean. Comfortable bed, good AC and having the opportunity to use shared kitchen and washing machine was very helpful for a 1-week stay. The host is very welcoming and ready to offer the best stay in Kandy. Very good location, close to supermarkets and to bus stations.

    The WiFi was at times not very good

    The room was very clean and had everything you needed. It has AC and a fan. Shower was good and body wash provided. There is a communal kitchen which has free tea and cooking facilities. You can also do laundry there for free! Location is good, about 10 min tuk tuk to train station and there is a grocery store just 2 min walk away. Not really any restaurants near by so you do need to get a tuk tuk into town which is no problem. Overall very good stay and would stay again, we actually came back for one night for a second time during our time in Sri Lanka.

    Wi-Fi signal was weak or unstable in our room.

    We had three refreshing days here, with cooler weather, in a nicely arranged hostel. Our room B had large windows with a view of the mountain, good storage wardrobe, and desk and chair. Bed was comfortable and we didn’t hear noise from other rooms. Common kitchen had fridge, stove, electric kettle, microwave and toaster as well as basic cookware and tableware. Dining table and couch for relaxing. Delighted to have a washing machine and ample clothes lines for drying. Easy to go to city center or botanic garden by flagging a bus passing by on the main road. Yama was a kind and helpful host. You can take the elevator to/from the ground floor by going through the dental clinic.

    The AC didn't work that well but we didn't really need it during our stay.

    We had a great stay at Smile Hub. Yama was a great host and provided nice little extras that made our stay better than we expected. Room was spacious and clean. Great place to stay if you are visiting Kandy

    Quite, safe place to stay, we came here to face my wife's OET exam. Exam center ACBT is near by this place, 5 min working distance. If anyone looking for a place to stay when comes to kandy OET exam centre, highly recommending the Smile Hub Kandy. Host "Yamada" is nice friendly guy, if you are looking for good place to stay for reasonable price, this place is one of the best option.
