Hotel was close to city centre

The hotel was close to the city centre and near railway station in Kandy. The hotel manager was helpful and knowledgeable about tourist sites and bus, train, three wheeler transport. The breakfast was delicious, scramble eggs and toast, and tea.

Great budget accommodation

This is a great location to explore Kandy. Walking distance to all the sites and restaurants. The rooms are above a bakery / fast food place but this doesn't matter. It's quite easy to find on a main road. The room was simple, but spacious and clean with a comfortable bed. The linen smelt clean and fresh and had a mattress protector. Staff were really friendly, especially Jenny, who brought us a welcome drink on arrival and provided a delicious breakfast of toast, eggs, jam, fruit and tea/coffee. Really great budget accommodation. Would really recommend.

På Vores 3 mandsværelse oplevede vi skimmelsvamp. Morgenmaden var ikke helt i top heller. Men perfekt hvis I kun skal bruge værelset til en enkelt overnatning og bare hen brug for en billig seng

Muffe kamer

Positief: goed bed, goede ac. Negatief: kamer rook muf, toiletbril kapot, douchekop kapot, onhandig ingedeelde kamer. Veel overlast van verkeerslawaai. Geen lichtschakelaar bij het bed. Je hebt een zaklamp nodig om het licht aan en uit te doen. Receptionist nooit aanwezig. Geen ontbijt, hoewel dat betaald was. Kandy scam.

Goede locatie, hotel valt tegen.

Kamer zat aan de weg, erg luidruchtig. Ook was de kamer erg verouderd maar voor de prijs hoef je ook niet veel te verwachten...
