Shiva Rest Katharagama

The price is very reasonable, also it’s situated in a very quiet area.

The room wasn’t very clean, they gave us dirty towels. Also they wanted to charge us extra for an AC room that we have booked. The man at the reception didn’t know and English so we had to communicate with the owner on the phone. Also the wifi didn’t work.

Probably the lowest price you can get in Kataragama. The host was kind and there was a fan

Our room wasn't that clean and to our misfortune, the bathroom was full of ants (no exaggeration!). As we told our host about the terrarium in our bathroom, he killed some of them with a spray. Since there were still plenty of ants left, we asked for a new room. He gave us a bigger room with a cleaner bathroom. Yet, there was a smell of mold and cockroaches in it, but we stayed with our new room since we could let fresh air in through the windows. If you ain't interested in insects, we wouldn't recommend this accommodation.

Calm place.
