A nice big room with a comfortable bed and views out over the outskirts of the town and onto the tea plantations. There's also a common area with sofa and dining table. Breakfast that was included in the room price was good typical Sri Lankan. I also had an evening meal on both nights which was ok and saved me going into town but wasn't great if I'm honest. Location is around 15 minutes walk to Lovers Leap waterfall. And there's a bus stop a few minutes walk away where buses are every few minutes and cost 35 rupees in to the town centre.

We had one of the best stays here in Sri Lanka so far! Our host Shan and his mum were super welcoming, kind and hospitable. They always made sure that we felt comfortable and at home. We got a free upgrade to their two-level room, which had the most amazing view over Gregory lake. There was hot water, thick bed sheets and the home made breakfast by his mum was sooo delicious!! My partner got a little bit sick, so they made us warm tea and some fried noodles for dinner. We felt very grateful for their kindness and can 100% recommend this place!

It was clean and had great facilities. The owner was very welcoming and flexible with our check-in, as we arrived at 11 PM instead of 9:30 PM. He made sure we were comfortable and provided recommendations for things to do in the area.

There is only one room, and it's part of the owners' house. Still, there's total privacy! It just makes you feel like home. We had an amazing experience here, the hosts were so kind and sweet, took care of us like parents, and the breakfast was so yummy! The room is clean too, and the balcony is huge. Unique and intimate experience, highly recommended.
