    Bathroom is located outside of the room, which even though they said was just ours, it looked like a shared toilet even if it wasn’t.

    Shared kitchen, room was spacious. No one else was occupying any of the other rooms, so it felt like we had the whole floor to ourselves. Lovely, helpful and welcoming staff.

    The bathroom is outside the room, but is no issue as they tell guests it is only exclusive to us. Unfortunately I do have to mention that my father ordered a taxi with the host that was going straight to the airport because of his flight a few days in advance. The taxi never arrived on the day and I had to text the host to confirm that there was one coming at the time we agreed, and he had forgotten. It was left a bit late, but luckily he was able to take my father instead - for £50 though. He did make apologises to my father, and he didn’t miss his flight. I think just next time to improve the situation, both parties should have been more communicative to prevent this happening again.

    This stay was very pleasant, all inclusive of FREE filter water downstairs (never seen before in Sri Lanka) and washing machine. The host was very accommodating and went out of his way to buy our room a socket connector also which we were very appreciative of. They cooked our family an entire free meal in our stay and it was quite delicious! Kitchen was so clean, we used every day to cook meals. Very close to beautiful beach. Many great things to say about this place, would stay here again.

    I don't understand how someone has left 3 bad reviews for this place. But it was the same person.

    Wow, this place is amazing. What else to expect for the small money I spent for staying here. Rooms are specious, the bathroom is clean, and the kitchen was fully equipped.

    Clean air conditioning room with all basic facilities. Very close to a super clean uncrowded beach. There are many places around to visit . Mask museum is 2 minute walk from SAGA HOME. Madu river safari, turtle hatchery and temples with amazing wood carving are must visits in Ambalangoda. There is a washing machine , which is free to use. The kitchen has all needed equipment including a microwave refrigerator and gas stove.

    Although it was a last minute booking, Damitha and his staff were so amazing in making sure I have everything I needed. I stayed on the top floor in a huge room with view of the sea, a killer sunset, and a large top floor balcony to enjoy it in. So grateful to all the staff for helping me whenever I have a query or request. Damitha gave the best sightseeing recommendations around the area, which turned out to be some of the top highlights of my time in Sri Lanka. The location is just behind the famous museum. Ambalangoda is an amazing place. I hope the culture will continue to be preserved and flourish in the future.

    We didn't like that the bathroom was outside of our room. There was another room directly opposite our door, which made using the bathroom feel uncomfortable and less private.

    We stayed in a rooftop room with a sea view, and it was wonderful. The room was very clean, and the host was amazing. The hotel is conveniently close to the city, nice restaurants, and the beach. We especially enjoyed spending time on the rooftop terrace.

    Great host and great hotel for budget travellers. Mr. Damitha helped us with all our needs immediately. Also he brought us to the city center to buy sim-cards by his car. In the hotel you can find all you need for very good rest.
