The owner was so helpful. They have just opened a restaurant next to the hostel so you can enjoy breakfast or whatever you need. It's just 10' walking to Nilaveli beach.

- Bathroom was a bit unappealing and had a gutter smell. The shower also didn't drain well and the water pressure was low. - Slow wifi. - Breakfast was nothing special. - Woken up around 8 AM one day to loud construction work in the guesthouse.

- Excellent value for money. The price is fantastic for what you get. - Great location. Just a 10-minute walk to a beautiful, uncrowded beach, which has a nice beach bar and restaurant where you can rent out beds & parasols. - Had everything we needed for our 4-night stay. - Responsive host, who is always willing to help and tries to fix whatever issues you point out. - Small 'restaurant' at the guesthouse as well Overall: For the price, you can't beat this place. The minor issues are easy to overlook, and we would definitely recommend it to other travelers on a budget.

First of all, I have to praise the manager of the hotel. He always helped us with anything we needed, from checking us in early to organizing breakfast, booking activities and arranging transport. He also gave us tips for great snorkeling spots and good restaurants and made it possible for us to have rice and curry for breakfast instead of the usual choices. The hotel itself was also great. Just a few minutes from the beach and close to a variety of good restaurants. It was very clean and very well maintained. We felt very comfortable the whole 9 days we were there! It happened more than once that we met other tourists in town who were unhappy with their accommodation, but as for my boyfriend and I, we can wholeheartedly recommend this hotel!

Not as personal as other stays in Sri Lanka. We were missing blankets in the beginning, however the host quickly fixed it. More space to dry the beach towels and bathing clothes would be great. Bathroom is not the best, one shower door was missing so the floor gets wet, they didn't supply a floor towel. Also no products are supplied, not even handsoap which we found a bit strange, no problem for backpackers but for others could be an issue. Warm water heater didn't really work, even after host explained it to us. We had the same heater in different accomodation and it was no problem, so we had to shower cold or constantly keep pressing the pump button to get a few seconds of warm water. Also it smells very strongly like sewage in the bathroom. There is no curtain for the bathroom glass door, so it gets really bright early in the morning. The host woke us up at 7:30 am on the day we left because he had to go to the hospital again, which was not great. Also he was very pushy about giving a positive review

It seemed like the main host was in the hospital when we came. The other host cared a lot, asked many times if we needed something. Great location, walking distance to supermarket, bus stop, beach and many restaurants. Quiet at night. Floor was clean, apart from under the bed. Ac works well. Huge room.

It was a nice stay. The bathroom and room were very spacious. The location is absolutely perfect: there are plenty of affordable restaurants and the beach is just a few minutes walk away. The owner was even so nice to drop me off at the bus station when leaving. I recommend!

Laxsume Guest House was a great find for our stay in Nilaveli! It’s just about 500–700 meters from the beautiful Nilaveli Beach, making beach access super easy. Plus, it’s surrounded by plenty of restaurants, so finding food was never a problem. The guest house itself is new, clean, and cozy—perfect for a relaxing stay. The bathrooms were especially nice and clean, which we really appreciated. The owner is extremely helpful and always ready to assist. He even recommended good spots for breakfast and dinner, which turned out to be great choices! This place is ideal for families or groups of friends looking for comfort and convenience. There’s also a small restaurant on the premises currently under construction—looking forward to seeing it open on our next visit!

The property was reasonably clean, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making the stay even more enjoyable. The location is great, making it convenient for exploring the area. It’s excellent value for money, offering a comfortable stay without breaking the budget. Overall, I would highly recommend this guesthouse to anyone visiting Trinco.
