"Best social atmosphere"

10.0

Everything. The most social hostel I've been in. Met lovely people and the owners are lovely too. Brownie points for the doggos especially Ramba and Sita! I was contemplating staying in Nuwara Eliya because it was too crowded for the new years, but laughing leopard and the people I met there changed my mind. 10/10 recommend.

It is a bit farther from the city though but in a perfect spot if you wanna balance the main city and all your Hikes.

"Good"

6.0

Social hostel! They offer a free family dinner every night which is great! Staff are also super friendly and helpful.

The hostel is not clean. There are so many flys around the social area it is difficult to sit at the table. The hostel dorm room was extremely cold and there is damp on the walls. The beds did not feel clean

"Niet best"

2.0

Aardig dat de gratis family dinner aanbieder, dit was lekker! En de honden zijn suuuuper lief

Het hele hostel was vies, de bedden waren keihard, de badkamer was echt niet schoon, personeel onaardig, niet echt sociaal

Bilo je dosta mladih što je super, za razliku od nekih hostela gde sam bila sama. To mi je olakšalo moj put do Elle. Osoblje je divno, stigla sam dosta kasno ali su mi ponudili večeru dobrodošlice.

Nije bilo tople vode za kupanje i nemaju fen za kosu ili neku grejalicu. Ovo mesto je dosta hladno u ovom periodu godine, ponesite pantalone i majice dugih rukava.
