Not what it’s all “Hyped” up to be.

Unfortunately, I didn’t stay. Although the room looked alright. It was at the front of the hotel. Sadly, Unawatuna has gone down in my estimation. Some of the hotels as with this one, are on the narrow road that runs around the bay. Full of tea and so called “Street food shop”. A very noisy and busy area late into the night. All well and good if you like a location like this. I found the same in Goa. Eg: Candolim and Calangute. Do stay outside of Unawatuna,you wil enjoy a cleaner beach and better surroundings. By the way there’s no free breakfast at the hotel. I was told that this has been mentioned to Hotels. Com. Many times.

Okey hotell, lite dyrt för den standarden.

Vi hade fyra dagar på hotellet. Låg cirka 200 meter från stranden. En bit upp på butik och restaurang gatan. Stort badrum och balkong. Lagom stort rum, med en stor säng. Ett rent fungerande boende. Bodde på tredje våningen, med ett dåligt fungerande Wifi. Bra frukost.

Helt OK

Helt gjennomsnittlig hotel, sengen har en litt for tynn madrass, A/C funker bra så du kan ha en godt og kjølig rom. Hyggelige ansatte, beliggenhet midt i Unawatuna så kort vei til strand (2/3 min gange) og butikker restauranter. Ville nok ikke kjørt dette hotellet for 12 dager, men for 2-3 dager så funker det helt greit. Rommene er veldig enkelt utstyrt, men det er rent og pent og fritt for bugs. Jeg fikk aldri Wi/Fi en til å fungere, så finn et annet hotel om du er avhengig av internet

Rent og god placering

Pænt og rent hotel, 2 minutters gang fra stranden, placeret på en hyggelig gade med masser af små butikker, cafeer og restauranter. Værelset var rent og badeværelset havde varmt vand. Morgenmaden var også fin og personalet var hjælpsomme, f.eks. Fik vi lov til at låne badeværelset på et af værelserne efter vi havde været på stranden den fag vi tjekkede ud. Kunne sagtens finde på at booke hotellet igen hvis vi kom tilbage til Unawatuna.

So-so

Ett ganska trevligt hotell och super läge. Nära stranden och tusen restauranger osv. Tyvärr tolkar hotellet reglerna på sitt eget sätt och även om jag betalat frukost på hotels.com fick jag ingen tyvärr. Hotellet argumenterade att det inte står i bekräftelsen och hotels.com hävdade motsatsen. Fick tyvärr ingen hjälp av hotels.com. Också checkout är inte kl 12 som står på bekräftelsen utan hotellet kommer att göra allt så att man sticker iväg tidigare.
