Pros +
- The owner is very friendly. The room was comfortable and clean. We rented a scooter from him for 3,000 rupees for one day. He also organized a safari for us and took us to the bus the next day. The breakfast was nice and tasty.
- The room and the surrounding area are well maintained and sparkling clean. The room itself is bigger than we had expected and the bed was comfortable. There is a seating area in front of the room so you can have breakfast or sit there in the evening after a long day. A little garden with plants, flowers and a hammock add to the place. The bathroom is okay. The only negative thing is the drain which is located on the opposite side of the shower, so you flood the whole bathroom every time you take a shower. However, since there is an AC, the water dries quite quickly. The owner and his wife are nice, yet - as everywhere in Sri Lanka - the language barrier exists. We could even rent a scooter on site and the owner brought us to the bus station after our stay. Given the price that we paid, I would stay here anytime again.

- One minor negative aspect is the breakfast. It's not really about the breakfast itself, but about the timing. On one day, we wanted to do a sunrise tour to Sigiriya and asked for the breakfast as takeaway. Unfortunately, that was not possible. It was also not possible to eat the breakfast later when we got back, for example, in the afternoon. They only would have had to put the breakfast in the fridge. But for whatever reason, the owner refused. We got a discount of about 500 rupees (about 1.65 USD) instead, which is unfortunately not enough to get breakfast someplace else. Furthermore, the breakfast is not served on time. Another day, we wanted so eat at 8 am but finally got it at 8:30. So if you are on a tight schedule, better do not rely on having breakfast there. Furthermore, there are (only) two types of breakfast that vary from day to day. For us, the toast breakfast was only little filling, but it was still okay. Even though we did not have dinner at the property, the prices were two to three times more than what you usually pay in town. Last, the accommodation is a little bit outside town, so you need a scooter or a Tuk Tuk to get there.
