Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This property was exactly what I needed. Clean, quiet, comfortable and private. The family are lovely and super friendly. The communication easy and the daily breakfast was a fabulous way to start the day. I couldn't recommend this property enough if you are looking for somewhere central and easy to base your stay in southern Sri Lanka this property is worth a look.
The rooms are clean and simple.

The room was always spotless. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Went out of their way to assist us. The only negative thing I can say is that the internet was on and off.
