Very close from the archeological site. The room was spacious, clean and modern. The bed comfortable, nice view on the jungle, aircon, calm and quite place. Good wifi.

The owner asked my age and then asked me if I want to have a drink later .. as a solo traveller, first day in Sri Lanka, and I was the only customer of the guesthouse that night, it didnt make me feel safe. Hot water not working. No toilet paper. They tried to charge me 1000 roupies more than my booking. Better check twice!

They organised a car for me to get to Anuradhapura, the breakfast was very good and it is fairly close to the archeological park. Host is also very friendly!

The name of the room 'room with fan' should be clearer to indicate there is no AC and room was very warm during power cut. Also, only one power socket.

The hotel is close to Ancient City, only 10 minutes walk. Hosts are hospitable people and can help with everything. They also can give bicycles and umbrellas. Room was clean with 2 big beds, no problems with a hot water.
