  This is a very basic family-run sleeping place instead of a hotel at a location extremely inconvenient far from any basic store. I was booked in by some local agent for certain reason and once arrived, it was too late to change the hotel even to forfeit my payment.It is simply too remote to even book a taxi. A very long & narrow road leading to this place. You have no other place within several kms to eat. The on site kitchen only opens for half an hour from 6:00 pm to 6:30 pm for dinner. A can of beer and a small portion of French fries cost 1280 Sri Lanka rupee, much more than my home city Sydney. A plate fried rice costs 900 rupees No indoor eating place. So much mosquitoes make outdoor eating a really pain even wearing trouses and long sleeves. No even bath anti-slippery floor towel or any such mat is provided, let alone of any other towels. I talked to the property person-in-charge that the floor towel is important for the guest safety and this is not something they should save for the reason of the cost. The property is in an enclosed wire fence of about only the size of a couple of hundred square meters. It is by the sea but only has some glimpse of water view from window or balcony because of tall and dense trees at beachside. The staff are friendly but they cannot do much about this.

  Nice and clean place except for those flies during day time. Visited this place with my family, very friendly staff, great hospitality, loved the location of this hotel situated right next to the beach, rooms were very hygienic and clean, loved the varieties of food especially the Sri Lankan cuisine and would love to visit again in the near future.

  I paid to this 1 or 2 star hotel around $26 for a stay from 2:00 am until 11:00 am not including any meal!! I appreciate them giving me one extra hour till noon, and keeping my luggage with them for 3 hours after check out. The location is good of you like to be away, and bery bad if you like to be around everything. No bottled water or coffee maker at the room. No blanket, I just covered myself with the bed sheet and turned off the AC.
