    The place was clean and we loved the single room. the staff was incredibly nice and affable. There were big beds, an iron, a dining area, and a private entrance inside the room. the location was great, right by the bus stop, and the hotel overlooked the garden. It's adjacent to the temple, bus station, museum of the ruins, safari, and dinner taken at the guesthouse.

    I liked the hotel! The location was good, close enough to safari in Kaudula national park as well as Sri Lanka for six weeks. Statue of Parakramabahu I was 2 km away. I had a great experience at the guest house. the location was convenient, near Kaudula National Park for safari adventures and close to various attractions like the Statue of Parakramabahu I, which was only 2 km away.
