    Great views and good value

    Our city trip stay had some bright moments at this place. The views from the rooms were amazing and the price was budget-friendly. The location was also very convenient, close to the city center and tourist attractions. One more advantage was the good quality of the bedding, which was very comfortable for resting after long days of sightseeing.

    The staff was not very friendly or helpful, giving us strict and unreasonable rules to follow. some deception was also perceived, such as false promises of services and hidden extra costs.

    I had an amazing experience staying at a guesthouse in Kandy. The views from the room and balcony were breathtaking and made my stay truly memorable. The owner, Mr. Thuvan, was so helpful and gave great advice on what to see in the area. The guesthouse was clean and pleasant, and the value for the price was unbeatable. The only downside was the internet access, which was slow and charged an additional fee. Despite that, I would definitely recommend this guesthouse. I had a fantastic time and would love to visit again.

    Located on the hillside overlooking the lake, this basic guesthouse offers clean and pleasant accommodation with fantastic views. The owner is polite, helpful and offers reasonably priced tours. The balcony rooms and top-floor restaurant offer picturesque views of the area.

    Internet access is charged at an additional fee and has slow connection, causing difficulty in accessing websites.

    The complimentary breakfast was delicious and it offered a variety of fresh fruits. The location was convenient as it was close to many attractions and restaurants. The staff was friendly and accommodating.

    The hotel had poor maintenance as the rooms were run down, old and not well-cleaned. The noise level was unbearable and we were often woken up by loud noises at different times of the day.

    Wonderful breakfast view over Kandy

    One morning, I woke up to the most amazing sight - a breathtaking view of Kandy while enjoying a delicious breakfast. The combination of the picturesque scenery and the scrumptious food made for a truly memorable experience. Despite a few drawbacks mentioned in other reviews, I would still highly recommend this hotel. I had a great stay and would recommend this hotel.
