The hotel is centrally located, making it convenient to access key attractions. The rooms, though cozy, may be a bit noisy due to street orientation and lack of sufficient lighting. The service is exceptional with attentive staff, but occasional judgmental behavior towards guests. The dining experience has its highs and lows, with some meals being highly recommended, and others not meeting expectations. Overall, a decent value for the money with some room for improvement.

The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore restaurants and the famous temple of the tooth. The spacious rooms with balconies were a nice touch, but the presence of mosquitoes and cockroaches was a downside. The service had some quirks during card payment but overall friendly. Dining options were limited and not appealing to vegetarians. Good for a one-night stay.

My stay at the hotel was decent. The rooms were okay, and I had a good sleep, although they were smaller than your average double room in Sri Lanka. The service was very helpful, and the location was very convenient, right in the city center and close to the Temple of the Tooth. The dining experience was very average, especially for vegetarians. Overall, the hotel represents value for money on a half-board basis, but the lack of vegetarian options on the set dinner menu was a downside. The facilities were decent, offering basic amenities for a comfortable stay.
