    Great location even if it is a bit further away from the center, it is in a very calm spot. Also you have a nice viewpoint close by. It was comfy and cheap, perfect for us student travelers. Also the owner was very friendly and helpful.

    The owner/manager was SO helpful, he met us in town and walked us to the cultural dance to buy tickets, and even got us reserved seats. He was very helpful and kind. The room is a bit old but is incredibly spacious so for our group of 6 it was perfect for one night as we made our way to Ella.

    Instantly fell in love with this accommodation. Great location, peaceful away from the busyness but also close enough walking distance. Excellent host, really helpful and friendly, very kind and upgraded our room as we had booking for a long time. Thank you so much. Safe Private parking for our tuk tuk. View from the room is stunning. Smells great very nice and clean. I wish we could have stayed longer 🙏🏼 more than value for money I think you should be charging more🫶🏼

    Simple budget accomodation for reasonable price still under renovation, but fine

    Chandike ist a very nice host and I enjoyed the stay. Big room with balcony bathroom was clean, abt. 20 min walking time to Kandy Lake. With Chandike's uncle - Michael Tours a made a very interesting and amazing TukTuk nature tour - walking to waterfall, posibility to take a refreshing bath, a cave temple amd delicious food on the way.

    No mosquito nets in ventilation, windows or over the bed. Not many mosquitoes in the area, but still few in the room.

    Very friendly and helpful staff, great views, good location - either 200-400 lkr tuk tuk or 20min walk to city center. Good ventilation in the rooms and common space!!

    The accommodation is very outdated, and the rooms could use a bit more care and attention.

    A very simple but clean accommodation. The staff was super friendly and helpful. We had wet clothes after a long rainy day on motorbikes and could do a laundry and had a nice hot shower.

    Exceeded my expectations! Chandike was the best host, making sure I had everything I needed and adapting to all of my requests. He went out of his way to make sure I had the best stay. The room was clean and spacious and cozy and so quiet! I stayed in room 103 and loved it. The view over Kandy was incredible. It was so well located, walking distance from everything (15-20min) but also after a long day of exploring Kandy by foor, you can opt for a cheap tuk tuk ride back, as it is uphill. Nothing too dramatic if you're an active person like me. I felt very safe as a female solo traveler and the host was super flexible, adaptable and overall just a lovely person who wants to make his clients happy. I highly recommend and would have stayed longer if it weren't for meeting my friend in Ella. Thanks Chandike!!
