“This guest house certainly earns points for its staff, particularly Imali, who seems to set a high standard for hospitality. Its peaceful location, removed from the main road, provides views of Ella Rock and proximity to key attractions like Little Adam's Peak. The complimentary breakfast is a standout, adding significant value to the stay.”

Acceptable Stay with a Few Issues

helpful staffmusty odor

The staff provided help, I acknowledge that.

The room exhibited a musty odor. I detected this issue immediately after entering and it remained for the duration of my four-night stay. It needs addressing.
