Close to beach. Friendly staff
The room was really hot - even worse when the power went out. Please include breakfast in the price. Especially when people are arriving late at night.

Second time at this lovely hotel that should have more stars based on the excellent quality. Very peaceful even though it’s right located in the middle of all Negombo’s goodness. Large rooms, all facilities working and extremely clean. Very nice staff.

Everything was great at the end and we enjoyed our stay and service. I would recommend for receptionist to be more welcoming and flexible during check in ;)

The location was perfect, Shamaine was very helpful and accommodating, the bed sheets are fresh and clean
Would be better if there will be a luggage rack and little lighting (white) in the room.

Overall gr8 host. Limited facilities within the hotel. But very quiet and away from noise. Also situated close to shops, restaurants and beach.
The credit card machine did not accept foreign cards, which was an inconvenience.

Good location just off of the main road. Very spacious room with a big bed and good WiFi.
The worst thing was that our room was full of mosquitoes; we must have killed at least 15 until late at night and still didn’t catch them all. The walls could very well do with a coat of paint and the room im general with a good wipe down. The quote for a taxi to the airport we got from the manager lady was outrageously high and we ended up spending a third of what she quoted us on a taxi we organised ourselves. Breakfast was interesting/unusual (eggs, bruschetta, hashbrown). Certainly not a bad place to stay, but overpriced for what it is.

Pleasant
It was near to the airport and just outside the hotel is a great cafe LORDS. We had a good Sri Lankan meal there and the best from our whole trip.
It’s a home turned hotel. There were no hand towels provided in bathroom. Lighting in the room was very low and felt depressing. Fan was noisy.
