"Well situated in the fort area. Close to other shops and restaurants. Friendly staff."

8.0

The location was very good. The food was simple but nice and filling.

The room didn't have a window but was airconditioned. The beach was very disappointing as it was covered in rubbish. Lots of plastic, cars tyres any and every type of rubbish. It was so sad to see. We would not swim there.

"Great price for excellent situation"

9.0

Firm bed - super comfortable. Spacious room with fan and air conditioning. Mosquito net over bed, although not needed when we stayed. Great food at the restaurant with a good choice of breakfast options. The restaurant is on the top floor and receives a nice sea breeze, while also having great views over the park where they play cricket. Nice seating outside the room for relaxing.

There is a slight sewage smell from the bathroom, but we placed a folded bath mattress over the drain to stop the odour

"Fajna lokalizacja, niefajny gospodarz, byle jaki pokój"

2.0

Lokalizacja, dobrze działające wifi, widok

Od początku host wydawał się nieprzyjazny. Najpierw zaczął robić miny, jak zapytaliśmy, czy śniadanie może być bez mięsa, potem otworzył drzwi od naszego pokoju i nawet nas nie wprowadził. Pod prysznicem mieliśmy zimną wodę, być może dało się jakoś włączyć ciepłą, ale nie potrafiliśmy, a nikt nam tego nie pokazał. Wystarczyło się odrobinę przyłożyć i byłoby dużo lepiej. W tej cenie na pewno są lepsze miejsca w Galle.

"Good"

6.0

Great location right next to the Fort wall. Bed was relatively comfortable and air conditioning was very effective in the heat.

Room was basic, small, dated and not very private. Not well sound-proofed - could hear both street traffic and other rooms. Bathroom was very basic with limited water pressure or warmth.
