Nothing much to like other than the location.
The place is badly maintained with hardly any staff.
The front door is shut by 8.30 PM which was inconvenient.
The reception is shockingly badly kept as are the exterior areas.Rooms maintenance is dismal.
I would not recommend this place to anyone.
This place is quiet and clean, perfect to rest and recover from travelling and for a very affordable price. Dennis the owner was very helpful in finding a driver for a day trip that I did on my last day there. Believe the other reviews - this place is a nice one. The location is not in the busy centre of Colombo but you can walk to museums from here, no problem (or a short taxi trip is walking is not your thing). I didn't take up the offer of breakfast but they provide it is you like.
It is a private property with 6 bedrooms
Rooms are spacious bathrooms are big
Tiles and fixtures are upgraded but curtains sheets were dirty infested with roaches and mosquitoes
