Bike hire and car hire are available at this hostel and the area is popular for cycling.

Anuradhapura Railway Station is 4.9 km from the hostel, while Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi is 6.1 km from the property. Sigiriya Airport is 65 km away, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service. Manushaka was very friendly and always happy to help with suggestions about what to do. Location was a bit outside the city in a small neighborhood, so it wasn't close to much, but there was a nice garden with lots of animals always hanging around.. Scooter and bicycle rentals were easy to arrange and the food was very nice with the same price you'd expect at a local restaurant!
