Morgenmaden var ikke helt i top heller. Men perfekt hvis I kun skal bruge værelset til en enkelt overnatning og bare hen brug for en billig seng ##### Caroline Stayed 1 night in Feb 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### jan, Rotterdam 31 Jan 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Muffe kamer Positief: goed bed, goede ac. Negatief: kamer rook muf, toiletbril kapot, douchekop kapot, onhandig ingedeelde kamer. Veel overlast van verkeerslawaai. Geen lichtschakelaar bij het bed. Je hebt een zaklamp nodig om het licht aan en uit te doen. Receptionist nooit aanwezig. Geen ontbijt, hoewel dat betaald was. Kandy scam. ##### jan Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Alan and Irene, Australia 2 Jan 2018 Liked: Staff & service #### Hotel was close to city centre The hotel was close to the city centre and near railway station in Kandy.

Staff were friendly and helpful. ##### Bruce ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rene, London 3 Sept 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great budget accommodation This is a great location to explore Kandy. Walking distance to all the sites and restaurants. The rooms are above a bakery / fast food place but this doesn't matter. It's quite easy to find on a main road. The room was simple, but spacious and clean with a comfortable bed. The linen smelt clean and fresh and had a mattress protector. Staff were really friendly, especially Jenny, who brought us a welcome drink on arrival and provided a delicious breakfast of toast, eggs, jam, fruit and tea/coffee. Really great budget accommodation. Would really recommend. ##### Rene ### 8/10 Good #### PRIYA 27 Aug 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### PRIYA ### 6/10 Okay #### Kavindi 21 Aug 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort ##### Kavindi ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Avani Kalutara Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kalutara-Hotels-Avani-Kalutara-Resort.h4031708.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bentota Beach – Signature Selection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bentota-Beach.h36466861.Hotel-Information) > > [Kahanda Kanda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Angulugaha-Hotels-Kahanda-Kanda.h11263998.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Sri Lanka - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ahungalla-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Sri-Lanka-All-Inclusive.h14754284.Hotel-Information) > > [Pandanus Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Induruwa-Hotels-Pandanus-Beach-Resort-Spa.h11289546.Hotel-Information) > > [Vivanta Colombo, Airport Garden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seeduwa-Katunayake-Hotels-Vivanta-Colombo.h526350.Hotel-Information) > > [Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weligama-Hotels-Weligama-Bay-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h19413442.Hotel-Information) > > [The Golden Crown Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-The-Golden-Crown-Hotel.h19397949.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Grand Galle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galle-Hotels-Le-Grand-Galle-By-Asia-Leisure.h24010679.Hotel-Information) > > [The Fortress Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Koggala-Hotels-The-Fortress-Resort-Spa.h7821441.Hotel-Information) > > [Earl's Regency](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-Earls-Regency.h1523191.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Hambantota](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hambantota-Hotels-Shangri-La-Hambantota.h15083331.Hotel-Information) > > [Taj Bentota Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Taj-Bentota-Resort-Spa.h581365.Hotel-Information) > > [go camping](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Go-Camping.h23256271.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Habarana-Hotels-Cinnamon-Lodge.h1854476.Hotel-Information) > > [The Golden Ridge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuwara-Eliya-Hotels-The-Golden-Ridge-Hotel.h29024680.Hotel-Information) > > [Ceylon Tea Trails - Relais and Chateaux - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwood-Hotels-Ceylon-Tea-Trails.h4045356.Hotel-Information) > > [98 Acres Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ella-Hotels-98-Acres-Resort-Spa.h15504051.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westbury Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuwara-Eliya-Hotels-The-Westbury-Palace.h48402950.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sun House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galle-Hotels-The-Sun-House.h15677263.Hotel-Information) > > [Amaya Beach Pasikudah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Amaya-Beach-Pasikudah.h6780993.Hotel-Information) > > [Aliya Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Avudangawa-Hotels-Aliya-Resort-Spa.h9849536.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bey Beruwala](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Beruwala-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bey-Beruwala.h8256226.Hotel-Information) > > [Habarana Village by Cinnamon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Habarana-Hotels-Habarana-Village-By-Cinnamon.h4031747.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun Siyam Pasikudah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Sun-Siyam-Pasikudah.h9272270.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sigiriya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sigiriya-Hotels-Hotel-Sigiriya.h1609730.Hotel-Information) > > [Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tangalle-Hotels-Anantara-Peace-Haven-Tangalle-Resort.h11229814.Hotel-Information) > > [W15 Weligama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weligama-Hotels-W15.h11560777.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Kosgoda Turtle Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kosgoda-Hotels-Sheraton-Kosgoda-Turtle-Beach-Resort.h48743974.Hotel-Information) > > [Maalu Maalu Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Maalu-Maalu-Resort-Spa.h6504916.Hotel-Information)
