Great place to stay. I stayed in the girls dorm and really liked how the bathrooms were separate but still through the dorm so girls only. Nice staff and clean facilities
Everything was great :)

Wonderful
Just a good vibe with plenty of room to meet people. It’s not very centrally located to the touristy parts of Colombo but it’s in a beautifully quiet neighborhood and very serene.

The staff was extremely kind, the bed was comfortable, the breakfast was amazing, and everything was clean. There was a good atmosphere. It's a good place to arrive in Sri Lanka, would recommend it.
It's kinda far away from the center, I would choose another area.

Nice breakfast and bathrooms
Beds are pretty insecure if you’re sleeping on top.

Location was perfect for me, not directly in the heart of Colombo plus easy access to other places. The food looks & tastes awesome.

Good
In a quiet area of the city, the room was big and there was room for luggage.
We had a private bathroom but it was outside the room. The water pressure of the shower was a bit weak but it was big.

Nirmal, the manager, was exceptionally hospitable and ensured my stay was smooth and comfortable from start to finish. The hostel’s central location in Colombo made it easy to explore the city, and the facilities provided were more than sufficient for a relaxing stay. A special mention to the cafe — the food was absolutely delicious and added a lot to the overall experience. Highly recommended!”
