    Great spacious apartment and tasty breakfast. the manager and staff were friendly and helpful. the location was peaceful and away from the touristy areas, but still accessible to Galle Fort and the beautiful beaches of Mirissa.

    The apartment could have been cleaner and could use a fresh coat of paint. There were some issues with mosquitoes and a cockroach in the bathroom.

    During my Christmas stay, I enjoyed the spacious room and the tasty breakfast offered by the hotel. the location was superb, allowing easy access to the local attraction sites, which was a bonus. Another advantage I would like to point out was the friendly staff who were always happy to assist us with our needs.

    The cleanliness of the room, which could have been much better. the room had not been properly cleaned, and there was a considerable amount of dust on the furniture.

    Great value for money with clean rooms, fast WiFi, AC, and a small but clean pool. The location is convenient, with nearby restaurants and a short walk to the harbor area. The staff, especially Manager Tony and his wife Maureen, were incredibly friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable.

    More variety in the breakfast options would have made it even better.

    We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. Best aspects were the friendly and helpful staff, delicious breakfast, clean pool, and convenient location away from the busy and pricier city center. We also appreciated the hotel's offer to arrange transportation for us.

    The staff was outstanding and went out of their way to help us whenever we needed it. The location was also great, not too close to the touristy areas but still within a reasonable distance to local attractions. We loved the pool and found it to be a perfect spot to relax.

    The kitchenette was not very well-equipped, making it difficult to cook anything beyond the basics. the transportation to town was a bit of a hassle and not as convenient as we would have liked.

    We were impressed by the staff who were very friendly, accommodating, and helped us plan our trip. the breakfast was excellent with a good variety on offer. Our room and bathroom were spacious and clean with comfortable beds. the property had a great pool to cool off in after a day of sightseeing, and the staff were always on hand to help with any queries.

    The stone road leading up to the property was a bit difficult to navigate with luggage.
