Pick Me Village

I paid 1200 rupies for 1 night + 600 rupies for dinner, and I got 1 double bed single room. So great value for the money. The room was fairly clean.

Budget place, so of course the shared bathroom was not the best - but I don't complain, it's a budget place. As said in other reviews, to reach the place there is a road that daytime is okay to do by walk, but I would not walk there in the dark. I did not like that the host sat with me at dinner, and insisted on making me drink rum with him (which I gently refuse, I am a solo female traveler).

The staff was very nice. It was only $4.

I couldn't stay here. I left before sleeping. This place is down a long, rutted dirt road behind a motorcycle parts dump. When I arrived, they didn't have a room cleaned. It seems like they just clean one if and when a guest shows up. I waited outside while the friendly staff tried to put a quick spit shine on a room. Water was pouring down off of the roof right over the entry and going into the doorway, which made their problem a little tougher. Even when they were finished though, there was food and alcohol left in the room from a previous guest. Although I didn't really like that, it was when I put my arm down on the bedside table in a puddle of goo from the previous tenant's food residue that I decided to find a different place for the night. There were other cleanliness clues, but that just put it over the top.

This was one of the best places I stayed in the country. The room was perfect, clean, modern with a great bathroom. The owner is incredibly friendly and he gave us a lot of nice tips (like where to go for sunset). Very quiet location but at the same time not far from the city. Good wifi, too and drinking water available.

Personal encantador y habitación excelente. Sin duda el mejor alojamiento calidad precio que he visto en el pais.

Great value for money, with everything you need. I only stayed one night and was able to wash my clothes for the next day. Reasonably priced. Robat is a very hard-working man and an exceptional host.

Really can't grumble for the price. If ever i came back to Sigirya or Dambulla, I would come back here. And stay a few nights.

Very nice and friendly owners. Very helpful people.. Very clean room. Center of city

I had a great stay at Pick Me Village! Robert, the host, and his daughter were incredibly helpful and welcoming. They were flexible with my checkout time, which I really appreciated, and even helped me get food at night when everything nearby was closed. The location was convenient, the rooms were clean, and they also provided useful local information that made my trip smoother. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!

No AC was there in the room even though it said it will have AC

Convenient location at a walking distance from Dambulla bus station. The owner Robert and his wife were smiling and helpful. They were kind enough to allow me early check in at 9am. Also Robert had great advice for travelers.

Even though I mentioned I might not stay the night in the room, still before I returned from my travels outside, he gave the room to someone else, which I didn't find nice. That didnt make much big a problem for me since I would leave just after a shower. So, Robert gave me access to the washroom so I could get myself a shower. Overall, this mitigated much of my distress, I hope this wont be repeated with other guests.
