The AC worked well which was essential in hot Colombo. The Wi-Fi worked perfectly . The location was great, very quiet and it felt safe. I would stay here again.

    Charming, slightly old-fashioned guest house designed by students of Geoffrey Bawa rather than the man himself. Incorporating an open (to the weather) courtyard, lots of places to sit, plenty of books available, garden, totally quiet. Extremely comfortable bed. I didn't eat there: one of my reasons for choosing it was its extreme proximity to Dolce Italia, a favourite Italian restaurant. Rs 500 by (PickMe) tuktuk to Galle Face. Very attentive and knowledgeable host.

    The first day in Sri Lanka we made 1 day stop in Colombo. . Darsham was a great host. Well communicating before and during our staying. He made it possible for us to check early and have a breakfast the day we came in. Arranged many things for us. The Sri Lanka's breakfast was rich and delicious. The apartment was cosy, ample, clean...just perfect. 30 min drive by tuktuk for ~Rs. 900 to the city center. Highly recommended!

    I had a great stay there! I booked 3 nights, the Hostel is very close to the city center of Colombo and also close to the Galle Face Beach. The Room was clean, the Bed very comfortable and the bathroom was also clean. During the night it was quiet, so I could rest easily. The Rooftop is also nice to have a little chat with others. The Staff is kind and they helped me with all my questions. They are really nice.
