Guest Reviews

• Dianne (10/5): Oase van rust vlakbij een druk stadje. - De ligging van het gasthuis is geweldig. Het uitzicht, de tuin, de natuur en de waterval: allemaal even prachtig. De kamers zijn ruim en goed gekoeld en je hebt een ruim balkon. Het personeel is heel vriendelijk en gastvri. Het ontbijt is prima. De stad is makkelijk te bereiken met een Tuktuk. Je kan er heerlijk eten. Niets, maar als tip zou ik willen meegeven: de klamboes nakijken. Er zitten gaten in.
• Michael (10/5): Best views in Ella. Great value - Absolutely incredible views - possibly the best in Ella! The staff were warm, friendly and helpful. It’s a short walk out of the main town but worth it for the view! The facilities themselves are more traditional home stay than modern hotel, but have lots of charm and it’s great value for money. We’d stay here again
• Antara (9/5): Best view in Ella - It's got the best view in the entirety of Ella, hands down. The sense of comfort and belonging you get here is unmatched. The food is incredible too, one of the best in Sri Lanka!. Staff was so helpful and warm, made our experience better. It's one of the oldest properties in Ella, hence the interiors and facilities are a little worn down. But doesn't take away much from the experience.
• Power (10/5): - View is spectacular to watch the sunrise also. Adjoining balconies. Very friendly staff Gardens and vegetable patch were lovely and colourful showing great love and care Sri Lankan breakfast was good. Quiet. Only one powerpoint and bathroom needed renovating. Room on the smaller side but still clean and adequate.
• Vilma (10/5): A wonderful hotel in an incredibly beautiful location - A wonderful hotel in an incredibly beautiful location. It was so beautiful that we even decided not to climb to the top of Little Adam's Peak, because we knew we wouldn't have seen anything more beautiful. We just wanted to sit on the terrace and take in the amazing views. The hotel is a bit far from Ella, but you can get to the town—which is also very lively and beautiful—very quickly and cheaply by tuk-tuk. In our group’s opinion, this hotel was the most beautiful one during our entire trip to Sri Lanka. Breakfast was delicious, and the staff was wonderfully helpful. Nothing
• Lynette (10/5): Loved our second stay at Ambiente - We love everything about Ambiente. We stayed here last year as well, so are return patrons. The view, the staff, the rooms - we love everything and will stay longer on any future holidays in Sri Lanka. There is nothing we didn't like. Loved everything!
• Elsa (8/5): -
• Marlena (9/5): Fantastic stay with a perfect view - Having been to a few places with a view, this was the absolute best of the Little Adams’s peak , the valley and the Ella’s rock. Very nice and quiet - we had a bike so was easy to ride down to town for dinner/drinks. Staff was lovely and very helpful and even prepared breakfast to special dietry requirements. Rice and curry dinner was delicious and plentiful. Highly recommend if you are staying in Ella for a few nights. Nothing!
• Sumathy (10/5): Stunning View - This is a lovely place to stay with a beautiful view. You can get tuktuk easily to get to the town area, walking can be exhausting since the roads are steep.and windy. The staffs are exceptionally attentive and accommodating.
• Edith-Clare (10/5): Iconic views and and gardens in Ella - A beautiful older hotel overlooking one of the best views in Ella. An escape from the touristy town with wonderful gardens for breakfasts. Hosts were fab and even provided us with a 5am picnic to take up for our Ella rock hike. Rooms were a little toasty with no A/C (we knew this when booking!) but it was not unpleasant at all!
• Esra (7/5): - ausgezeichnete Lage und sehr freundliches Personal je nach Zimmer extrem laut man hört sowohl die Nachbarzimmer als auch die Straße sehr laut, empfindliche Schläfer sollten hier nicht übernachten oder nur mit Oropax
• Geio (10/5): -
• Meelis (10/5): - 10 million dollar view, nice rooms with balcony, extremely kind and helpful staff. Only small distance way from city crowds. Could not ask for more.
• Lars (9/5): The View is Priceless - The view from the room really is unsurpassable, and the same for the sound of nature. The staff is very welcoming with a cup of tea upon arrival. They prepared a delicious breakfast each morning and even an ad hoc omelet after arriving unexpectedly late. The room was decent, a bit dated here and there, and the walls are thin, but more than acceptable for the price, especially taking into account the views and the overal natural beauty of the accomodation. It’s an easy tuktuk ride to Ella town (500 LKR was the cheapest I got). A special note: check at the train station for departures as Google Maps isn’t fully up-to-date. Although I only noticed very few mosquitoes during my stay, there were dead mosquitoes on top of the mosquito net that weren’t removed. The net also had a few holes, just like the sheet.
• Rhode (5/5): Fijn, maar zou zelf toch eerder in het centrum verblijven - Super mooi uitzicht Geen levendigheid en verder weg van de restaurantjes
• Myrthe (10/5): Prachtig - De kamers hebben een prachtig uitzicht, met een fijn balkon met comfortabele stoelen, en het personeel is zo vriendelijk! Staan altijd voor je klaar. In de ochtend zie je de zon opkomen recht voor je kamer, heerlijk wakker worden. We zouden zeker terug komen. Bij ons deed de fan het iets minder goed. Maar het koelt ook af s’nachts dus hadden er geen last van.
• Joel (9/5): Peaceful stay set to a stunning backdrop - Located in a serene, dreamy setting overlooking Ella Rock and Little Adam’s Peak this is the perfect spot for accessing the multitude of sights and amazing landscapes close to Ella, whilst having the calm, peace and solitude available to relax. The outdoor areas such as the gardens are beautifully maintained and offer a great place to set and watch the world and wildlife. Rooms are fairly basic, but comfortable with good storage and facilities for a few night’s stay. Shower and air con also pretty decent. All the staff including the general manager and owner were very helpful and friendly throughout the stay, offering great advice and being on-hand with any requests. A little refresh would go a long way in the rooms. Our door had a gap at the bottom that could be fixed fairly cheaply. But a minor point. WiFi was very intermittent in the room, but the staff reset the router when asked.
• Niels (10/5): - Best view you can ever have
• Donald (10/5): Beautiful views. Was lucky to be there - Great Leaving the hotel could have stayed longer
• Ugur (6/5): -
• Jay (10/5): - Amazing place to stay. View is incredible–equally as good as the view from the local hikes. Extremely friendly staff. Shout out to Shanaka. Nothing
• Stephane (10/5): - Vue magnifique, chambre propre, literie excellente, petite terrasse cosy. Personnel souriant Rien
• Georgia (10/5): - This is a beautiful guest house nestled in the hills of Ella. The view from our room was like a postcard, and watching the sunrise over the hills from bed was a highlight. It’s a short, 10 minute walk down to Ella town with great restaurants and shops. We were also able to walk to all main attractions close to town such as Ella Rock, Little Adam’s Peak and the 9 Arches Bridge. Our host, Shanaka, was incredibly helpful and provided us with recommendations and advice on activities. Breakfast was wonderful too! We would definitely stay again when visiting Ella.
• Valentina (10/5): - Vi hadde et fantastisk opphold på Ambiente Guest House. Vi følte oss velkomne, og atmosfæren var, rolig og hjemmekoselig. Personalet var vennlige og hjelpsomme, og servicen var utmerket. Man merker virkelig at de bryr seg om gjestene sine. Rommet var rent, komfortabelt, men det som virkelig gjorde oppholdet helt spesielt var utsikten, den var rett og slett magisk! Maten vi ble servert til frokost og middag var nydelig. Vi kan varmt anbefale dette stedet, og kommer gjerne tilbake! .
• Rose (10/5): -
• Adriana (10/5): - Posizione fuori dal centro, ma immersa nella natura
• Ivan (10/5): - Невероятный вид и гостеприимные хозяева отеля
• Robin (10/5): - Het uitzicht en de gastvrijheid Geen. Misschien iets voor de toekomst: een koelkastje en wat haken of planken om je jas en paar t-shirtjes op te hangen?
• Julie (10/5): We wished we had stayed longer than the two days we had. The smaller property and the amazing staff made our holiday. Br - The property is an older charming property set in the hills with the most amazing views. The staff are very welcoming and accommodating. I couldn’t find fault with the property, it is older but clean. We loved it.
• Vitalija (10/5): - I really enjoyed my stay here. The view is absolutely beautiful and makes the place feel extra special. The location is quiet and peaceful and it’s still just a short distance to town (there are also some stairs nearby that work as shortcuts, making it very easy and quick to walk) The hotel staff were very kind and helpful...which made the experience even better. I truly felt welcomed and well taken care of. Overall, a great combination of calm surroundings, easy access to everything you need and excellent service. Highly recommended!
• Neil (9/5): - Our comfortable room and shared balcony had a magnificent view across the valley to Ella Rock. The hotel is set in a pretty garden with local wildlife. Staff friendly and helpful.
• Nola (10/5): A lovely stay with stunning views - We spent two nights at Ambiente in Ella and had a really lovely stay (early January 2026). The hotel is located just a short walk from the centre of Ella and conveniently close to the railways tracks and hiking trails, and provides truly stunning views - overlooking Ella’s hills, the horizon and Ella Rock. The garden is wonderful and adds to the peaceful atmosphere. Breakfast was abundant and delicious, with plenty of choice and a great start to the day. The staff were extremely welcoming and helpful, always happy to assist with transport and to share tips about the area. A special mention goes to Shanaka, who truly made our stay unforgettable. He’s extremely attentive, responsive, knowledgeable, kind, and respectful — never overbearing, but always genuinely engaged. He made sure we were well taken care of from the first moment of our stay to our departure from Sri Lanka. Exactly the kind of person every great hotel needs on their team! Overall, a really pleasant stay with wonderful views and warm hospitality. A few amenities could benefit from a bit of upkeep (mosquito nets in particular, parts of the bathroom), but it’s clear that a lot of care goes into the place anyway!
• Agnieszka (10/5): - Genijalne miejsce, personel, pokoje i widok zapierający dech w piersi. Super śniadania.
• Myriam (8/5): -
• Liesbet (9/5): -
• James (9/5): Beautiful peaceful location with superb views. - The location The views The rooms Only criticisms Too dark to read in our bedrooms Limited evening meal menu so we ate out second evening Needed more spice in curries
• Olivera (10/5): - The most beautiful view and nature in Sri Lanka! Thank you, thank you, thank you – we had an amazing time here, especially thanks to the wonderful staff of this hotel. Our dream is to be able to return here one day. Greetings from Slovakia.
• Abhay (9/5): -
• Haibin (10/5): 太棒了，下次还会来 - 这家酒店的服务非常好，房间外面的景色更是令人惊叹
• Danijel (9/5): Perfekt plats för avkoppling med fantastisk utsikt - Mycket nöjd med vistelsen. Boendet har ett fantastiskt läge med en fantastisk utsikt och rummen var rena, fräscha och välskötta. Frukosten var mycket god och personalen gav ett trevligt och varmt bemötande. Lugnt, hemtrevligt och perfekt för att koppla av ,rekommenderas varmt.
• Maryla (10/5): The best view in Ella. - Amazing place with the best view we had in Sri Lanka. You can also see the train from the terrace (not the bridge, but in the mountains), so you don’t have to catch on the bridge. The room was clean with an entrance to the terrace. AC worked perfectly. Big comfortable bed. The breakfast was good, European rather than local (eggs with toasts, butter, jam, fruits, juice, coffee/tea) also with a great view on the mountains. The staff was very friendly.
• Jill (10/5): Beautiful and scenic sport with a large terrace overlooking the Ella main valley. Super comfortable rooms and very help - Beautiful location well above the main town but a 10 minute walk down some shortcut stairs or a quick TukTuk ride back up. Hosts were extremely welcoming with tea, biscuits and fresh juice upon arrival. Room was spacious with extra large bed and a lovely mosquito net canopy. We had a small balcony where you can see the sunrise and views over Ella, depending on the mist. Their garden has many beautiful plantings and flowers and we enjoyed sitting and watching the scenery. We even did the Ella Rock walk right out the front door and down some side roads to the train tracks. Would highly recommend as a respite from the bustle of the main Ella town center. Tuk Tuk sometimes wanted to over charge to take us back up, so a bit of negotiation is required.
• Tracy (10/5): - Our stay at Ambiente Guest House was truly memorable and one of the highlights of our time in Ella. The guest house boasts a magnificent panoramic view, which can be enjoyed directly from the spacious rooms and their private terraces. Waking up to such scenery was an absolute pleasure. The rooms themselves are large, comfortable, and well maintained, offering a perfect balance of relaxation and privacy. However, what truly sets this place apart is the exceptional hospitality. The staff were incredibly kind, thoughtful, and attentive throughout our stay. In particular, Shanake deserves special mention for his genuine care and warmth. He consistently made sure that we were happy and comfortable, always serving with a sincere smile. His attentiveness extended even to small details — he noticed when we did not finish our breakfast and kindly checked in to ensure everything was alright, which speaks volumes about the level of personal care provided. Ambiente Guest House made our stay in Ella feel extra special, and we genuinely wished we had stayed for a few more days. I would highly recommend this guest house to anyone seeking comfort, breathtaking views, and heartfelt hospitality.
• Sugan (10/5): Fantastic stay - Very helpful and best accommodation. Staff were great and welcoming. Thank you for being flexible.
• Amira (10/5): This is a home :) - This place was not only charming but the views from our stay blew me and my friends away. It was amazing. Our stay was cozy and sweet with the friendliest staff. We also bonded with them and the owner, having tea with him. He gave us some special spots to visit where it’s not very touristy and more authentic experience as well as private. He’s got a cool uncle/grand uncle too!Very accommodating, friendly and human. I will be coming back here with my friends the next time I’m here again!
• Kerstin (10/5): -
• Petra (10/5): Entspannte Aufenthalt mit traumhaft schönen Ausblick - wir möchten ihn nicht missen - Die Aussicht ist absolut ein Traum - wir konnten uns nur schwer von ihr und auch vom äußerst gastfreundlichen Personal trennen. Unsere Zeit im Ambiente war Entspannung pur :)
• Anıl (10/5): - All people working in this place are very friendly, helpful and kind. It was felt like staying at home. The view was extremely nice and the room was clean and comfartable. I definetely recommend staying there
• Pepijn (10/5): -
• Elizabeth (10/5): Serene and welcoming stay with breathtaking views: a pocket of paradise! - Beautiful and serene property with the most stunning views. Beds were romantic and very comfortable and all looked out onto the stunning views of the valley. It felt very dreamy waking up to this. The staff were exceptional and went above and beyond to ensure we were looked after. Breakfasts were delicious! Some areas in the bathroom were a little tired. A bedside table w a lamp would be a good addition so you could read at night and had somewhere to put your water glass. But these are small details.
• Bryan (8/5): Vue incroyable - Nous avons apprécié la vue magnifique et l’emplacement au calme tout en restant proche du centre. Le personnel est très sympathique et serviable. Le déjeuner est bon et généreux. Il n’y a qu’une seule prise dans la chambre et la salle de bain a besoin d’un gros rafraîchissement.
• Prerna (10/5): -
• Anna (9/5): Lage, Lage, Lage!!! - Die Lage ist einfach traumhaft, das Personal ist super aufmerksam und freundlich. Das Frühstück war reichhaltig und lecker! Das Abendessen war der Hammer! Nichts
• Sophia (10/5): Traumhaft - Der schönste Ausblick, den man sich vorstellen kann. Aus dem Bett kann man den Sonnenaufgang über dem Little Adams Peak beobachten. Der Wirt und das Personal sind ungeheuer freundlich, hilfsbereit und liebenswert. Das Frühstück ist sagenhaft gut und reichlich. Ein absolutes Muss.
• Emma (9/5): - Het mooiste uitzicht van heel onze reis, absolute aanrader! Heel comfortabel bed, vriendelijk personeel & lekker ontbijt. Kamers waren niet super goed afgesloten, waardoor we wel wat last hadden van mieren en muggen.
• Lak (10/5): - Staff was really accommodating. Would highly recommend.
• Fanny (10/5): -
• Emily (10/5): - Nous avons passé 2 jours au sein de la guest house. C’était parfait, l’emplacement est idéal, la vue est vraiment le point fort c’est magnifique. L’ensemble de l’équipe a été au top avec nous, très accueillante et de bon conseil. Je recommande fortement !
• Jordi (10/5): Moltes gràcies Priyantha!!! - Les vistes son espectaculars, l’habitació comode i l’esmorzar molt bo. No te a/c pero no fa falta. Una piscina seria ja una fantasia!!!! Pero igualment repetiriem sense dubtar-ho. Màgic. En general ens ha agradat tot. Només diríem que L’aïllament del soroll podria ser millor perquè una nit ens va molestar força un gos pero insisteixo repetiriem.
• Anna (10/5): -
• Willem (9/5): Best view and host in SriLanka! - Beside the amazing view, the best in whole SriLanka most likely, the manager was absolutely amazing. Priyantha truly understands what hospitality is. Great and huge breakfast. Amazing colorful garden. And did we mention the AMAZING view already ;-) All was great but should we need to mention something: the bathroom could use an update. Not something serious
• Diana (10/5): Vistas increíbles, paz en Ella - Un sitio idílico… Por favor, si estás dudando si alojarte, no lo pienses. Es un sitio PRECIOSO, con una atención de 10 por parte de Priyantha. Hizo de la estancia un 10 con su atención, buen hacer y profesionalidad Además del súper desayuno, variado, completo y con unas vistas impresionantes Estarás a 10 minutos de Ella y saldrás del bullicio turístico que agota al final del día
• Tully (8/5): Very good - Amazing view and reasonably close to town
• Judy (9/5): Superb - Incredible view. Good breakfast. Pleasant staff. We asked for a double room but were put into triple room which was a bit cramped. Even though the weather is cooler, a fan would be good. Also lighting was dim so couldn't read at night. Bedside lights would be great.
• Yapabandara (8/5): Lovely stay - Very good Everything is very good
• Dennis (9/5): Exceptional, friendly, and perfect for young families - We had a great time in Ella and in the ambient guest house. The manager and his team are doing everything possible to make you feel at home. I would definitely recommend Ambient Guest house to all, that is looking for a place far enough from the busy center and enjoy truly amazing cinematic view The badrooms need a small ugrade
• Deniz (10/5): Amazing view at ella - The view is more than amazing. I wont ever be able to forget that view. Its just beyond expectation. You can see Ella Rock and Little adams peak at the same time. Rooms were clean, breakfast was amazing. They were so helpful about everything. Location is 6 minutes tuk tum drive but you can walk easily when you are going to the center. However coming back is a little bit challenge since you need to hike to the up a little but. There is always tuk tuk available on the outside. Loved this place!!
• Artem (9/5): Superb -
• Philip (9/5): Perfectly positioned with lovely hosts. - This place is comfortable and the position is right at the beach, the owners are lovely people who make amazing food, the breakfast and dinner are great and large so be hungry.
• Mckinnon (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lynette (10/5): Beautiful location. Host was great Rooms were great - We were a group of friends and stayed the one night here. This property exceeded our expectation We loved everything about the property
• Inbal (10/5): warm and homely feeling and the best view I have ever seen - Everything was perfect Amazing view, comfortable room and great hosts
• Kevin (7/5): Good -
• Vivi (8/5): Very good - View from room spectacular, especially sunrise Big breakfast with both sri lankan and western dishes 10-15min walk to town so great location (walking back is uphill though!) Room was a little tight
• Nameme2 (10/5): Exceptional - Near Ella Siyapatha Hut Restaurant, very good food. Good mountain view. Lovely dog called momo. Comfortable bed. Good mosquito net. Excellent breakfast.
• Ruta (10/5): Too short… - The view is amazing!
• Klaus (7/5): Very good mountain view and garden, old buildings. - Phantastic view to mountains and waterfall and nice garden and verandas. Quiet place nearby Ella town. Restaurants nearby. Old buildings and interior. No light at the bed, no plugs in bathroom. The place has to be renovated und updated outside and in the rooms.
• Samantha (9/5): Beautiful view across Ella, stunning garden and very friendly staff - The guest house has an amazing view across Ella, it’s quite breathtaking especially at sunrise so make sure you’re up early to see it. It’s up the hill out of Ella which I liked. I arrived very unwell with the flu which wiped me out for 2 bed rest days in Ella. Being a solo traveller the staff were very sweet checking in on me, bringing me tea and offering to visit the pharmacy for me. The staff really do go above and beyond. The manager was very friendly and the owner a lovely guy who chatted with me over tea, some much needed company after 2 days in bed. Oh and Momo the dog was a great addition who loves attention. It can be a little noisy with the road and all the stray dogs, but it didn’t bother me too much.
• Waruna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Liana (9/5): Superb - Amazing views 😍 Too cold in the room :) And wet :)
• Irena (10/5): Perfect stay in Ella - The best views and best hotel in Ella Outstanding staff super comfortable bed and great breakfast definitely will be back Loved it
• Carol (9/5): Good choice for quiet stay - Spectacular views from a small b and b that has been in business for 25 years. The owners were - like everyone we met in Sri Lanka - very helpful in arranging transfers for us and even packing us some Sandwiches for our early departure. The rooms were fine for the amount we paid for them - and we liked the quiet location as Ella is very busy indeed and it was good to be a bit out of the way. Would certainly recommend
• Girija (7/5): Morning Mountain view awesome - Mountain view was good. On the whole, stay was comfortable. Room was not up to the mark. There were lizard and bugs / flies in the room and the 3rd person in the room has a tough time as there was no mosquito net. Please check Fungas on the ceiling.
• Ravinda (9/5): View from our balcony was breathtaking. - Location Old and outdated fittings
• Paul (9/5): Breathtaking. - Wow wow wow,we didn't have anywhere to stay in Ella,and our driver Sanjay recommended Ambiente,we have been all over the world and I can say with hand on heart, you will not get a better view,breathtaking is an understatement,the owner is hands on and a lovely person,staff very friendly, if we're passing this way again ,it's the only place we will stay.Thank you so much.Paul and Noelle. Everything, view spectacular, and the pancakes were a bonus.
• Chloe (10/5): Exceptional - Great view of the mountains to wake up to, super peaceful and calm area just off the main road and the buzz of Ella. Spacious rooms, hot shower and comfortable bed. There was no AC but the fan did the job. We had breakfast on the tables outside with a breathtaking view!
• Kavisha (10/5): Totally worth the price - The staff was super friendly. Breakfast was delicious. The location has a perfect view covering both Ella Rock and Little Adam's Peak. Overall this place is totally worth it for the price you pay
• Arvindh (10/5): Rooms with Amazing view - Amazing place with probably one of the best views in Ella. Very friendly and accommodating host with great service. Room was clean and adequate with all the basic facilities.
• Damantha (10/5): friendly staff - wive, locations
• Bari (10/5): A beautiful homely place with jaw-dropping view of the mountains with super friendly staff. - The first thing that strikes me is the jaw-dropping view in front of the guest house. The place in itself was nice with a homely atmosphere with super-friendly staff, especially the manager (think his name was Sanath). I checked in late in the afternoon which was well after lunchtime and they were super nice to offer me a fresh and tasty meal. I enjoyed this kind of hospitality throughout my 2 day-long stay. This was exactly the place I was looking for when I planned my visit to Ella. Not exactly a negative thing, but since it was a hilly area, in a quiet neighborhood, it was a bit difficult to find transport, especially early in the morning when I had to go to the Ella station to catch the Ella to Kandy train. However, Sanath the manager graciously arranged transport, so it was all okay.
• Michaela (9/5): The best views of our trip. - The views were amazing, the breakfast was wonderful. If i really had to nit pick the fan in our room was quite loud.
• Afnan (10/5): It was the hotel with the best view in our entire trip - Great View
• Hrdlickova (10/5): Exceptional - It was so famous place and perfect cleanly rooms for our family. Breakfast was so big and perfect prepared.
• Titu (9/5): Superb -
• Ryan (10/5): Exceptional - AMAZING !!! Best view in Sri Lanka , sit back relax, enjoying your breakfast or dinner overlooking Ella Rock, litte Adams peak and a waterfall perfect !!! Staff all wonderful and friendly, just a short stroll or a tuk tuk ride down into town. Came for one nite stayed 3. Will definitely come back to Ambiente guest house.
• Michael (10/5): Perfect - BEAUTIFUL VIEW, sunrise directly over the hills from balcony 😍
• Henrik (9/5): Excellent - The atmospheare, the View, the value for money, the staff, the help with all problems to be Solvej They should have an electric ketle in the Rooms to make coffee
• Dias (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mariia (8/5): Best view and garden in Ella - The view is just amazing! It’s on the top of Ella so you will do some hiking to get there but it’s soooo worth it. Or you can always take tuk tuk. The staff is very helpful. The breakfast is just amazing (loved the scrambled eggs!) and you are having it while watching the most perfect scenery you could only imagine. This garden is just everything! My room had a wonderful terrace with the Mountain View - I loved it. The room is nicely furnished I didn’t really like the color of the curtains) Also, there were always some flies and other insects in the bathroom (but not in the room luckily). But it was my mistake cause I never closed the window in the bathroom. Well, would be nice if the bathroom in general would be renovated but it’s just an idea to consider, it’s not that bad.
• Helen (10/5): Exceptional. My favourite hotel during my stay. - Unreal. Everything was perfect. The view was the best I had on my trip. No power plugs in the room :(
