Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
This place is a dump. Misrepresentation of room, rooms in poor conditions, insects everywhere and unclean beddings. Hotel manager tries to scam people into paying for internet, and limits internet use at 1hour max. He also tries to get people to book safari tours through him at a much higher rate - do not book through him. All the safari tour we spoke to avoided picking us up at this hotel because the hotel manager is sketchy.

Good place to stay!
We stayed for a night in this safari resort and we enjoyed it! The family who run it are very nice, they gave us a welcome drink and they drove us to the bus station! Good quality breakfast. You can see birds, some lizards and even hear he elephants! The room is small but it is ok for one night.

Vi valgte at booke dette hotel ud fra de indbydende billeder og nærheden til Udawalawe safaripark. Vi bookede to værelser i to nætter. 19 kvadratmeter med udsigt til haven. Ved ankomsten fortalte værten glad at et værelse var blev opgraderet til et værelse med aircondition. Værelset viste sig at være uden vindue og badeværelse med bare koldt vand. Det svarede på ingen måde til de pæne værelser med blomster som vis på ”fake reklamebillederne” Værelset var meget lydt, man kunne tydeligt følge samtaler i ”lobbyen” uden for døren. Det andet værelse vi fik var på ca. 10 kvadratmeter som blev kaldt luksus bungalow med udsigt til parken. Udsigten var gennem brædderne i døren som bestod at ubehandlede planker, med fri adgang for insekter og kryb. Badeværelse og toilet var udendørs uden beskyttelse for regnen. Det der eventuelt skulle have været et vindue var lukket med brædder. Se alle billederne. Dette hotel kan ikke anbefales for nogen. Ikke engang for rygsækturister som ser bort for enhver form for komfort. Vi valgte at afbestille den sidste nat, og rejse videre.

Låg en bit utanför Udawalawe och entrén till nationalparken. Trevlig värd som verkade gilla att berätta om sitt land. Värden fixade jeep för att komma in i nationalparken. Trevligt boende där de serverade god mat.

Właściciel obiektu jest niesamowita osoba, która od samego początku raczyła nas ciekawymi historiami na temat Sri Lanki, jest pomocny i stara się szukać rozwiązań na Twoja korzyść w razie problemu. Obiekt noclegowy jest w porządku, wszystko czego trzeba. Zarezerwować na miejscu można wycieczkę safari oraz zjesc obiad.
