“Quiet location tucked away from the main town, a short walk away. Simple but spacious room - mine had a fan and private bathroom (with open windows). I did not explore the communal bathrooms or kitchen as I did not have reason to.”

“The most incredible Hostel in Sri Lanka. The shower under the palm trees was amazing. It was very clean and the rooms were decent size. You can see monkeys, squirrels, peacocks and many other animals. If you love nature I highly recommend it.”

“The staff was really friendly, my elbow was hurting and they helped me get to a doctor. We really liked the bathroom and showers too. They were always very clean and smelled really nice. It's a short walk to the hustle and bustle of Hiriketya....”

“Comfy bed, very clean. And the environment is so nice! A little part of the jungle, with monkeys and squirrels. Oh, and the open air showers are the best!!!”
