"Pleasant"

6.0

The staff is friendly, but the rooms are cold and the blanket is insufficient. The bathroom is always wet due to water leakage. Honestly, the towel rental policy is ridiculous—I'vent seen something like this before in other countries . They really need to put more effort into the food and move away from serving only rice and curry. Honestly, the nightly rate is expensive compared to the condition of the hostel and the quality of services.

"Very good"

8.0

Really good, sociable hostel. I enjoyed my stay here mainly because of how easy it was to meet people. The dorm rooms are fine but a bit cramped. They do a family dinner every night, and there's plenty of good spaces to hang out. They have 3 dogs and some really cute puppies, which were great to pet, although they did make the place a little less clean and tidy. They have good suggestions for things to do. We hiked the Pekoe Trail, which was great.

It's a bit cold at night, so one blanket wasn't really enough. The place was a little less clean and tidy because of the dogs. Also it would be good if they had soap in the bathrooms.

Such fun staff who are super friendly, super fun and social vibe with other backpackers. If is very much a hostel, so facilities are relatively basic, but are clean. Not sure why there is such a low average on Booking, I loved my stay. They have puppies and a few other dogs which I loved as well!

Just note it is a little far from the city centre but easy enough to get a Tuktuk.

The hostel is always full and a very nice place to network with people and socialize. The staff and everyone were really nice, the place was beautiful and very big. This could be the best hostel in Nuwerliya.

There about 7 to 8 dogs open and running around the hostel which is okay but it was continuing to bark at us which was kind of scary and frustrating for people who are scared of dogs and they have not locked up them. it's always open in it comes to you which is kind of scary
