The owner is lovely and friendly! A good place to stay if you want to visit all the historical sites. The place is very basic, rural, and you won’t finish your breakfast hungry!

Your service is excellent. Very convenient in every way. Hotel room is very suitable. Very good relaxing experience between the breeze of Tisa lake and Basavakkulam lake. Friendly and kind service is very good. Thank you very much for an unforgettable experience in Anuradhapura trip.

I looked like sheets weren't so fresh. There were some animals in the bathroom.

The greatest owner. Offered bicycle, picked me up a few times, and told about sights and the place for eating. In total, it's a very good place for its cost Thanks for the great owner!!

The property is some distance away from the town centre. Appears to be an issue with the damp course proofing of the building, although this is not really a major concern once the fan is turned on for air circulation. Being in the tropics, there are insects and mosquitos. But this is the same everywhere - unless you book into a much more expensive accommodation. So come prepared with insect repellant, and use the mosquito net if one is provided.

Bike available for rent at low cost to tour the temples which are only a short ride away. Owner was very helpful. Owner has a tuk tuk to visit the temples some distance away at reasonable cost, if required. As always, check and agree on the price beforehand. This is more a guesthouse than a hotel, so you are sharing the accommodation and experience of the property owner. If luxury and comfort is what you're after, then you'll need to book into a much more expensive accommodation.

The owner is really friendly and we did a really nice tuktuk tour around all the ancient sites, which i would definetly recommend!! The room was good but a bit too hot. Bathroom could need some cleaning but overall okay.

The host is a friendly person always available to help you with anything you might need. The property is located in a very quiet area not far from the city that is easily accesible by bicycle that you can rent on site.

- The property is far from city center and going there is not an easy task as the path is very dark. - There is no cell reception which makes things harder. - We didn't find restaurants in walking distance so if you don't have a method of transportation it is hard to go to the city center. - The bathroom is shared between the rooms and was not clean. - Would not recommend for a woman alone.

- Good quietly/price ratio - The room was small but very conformable - There was a cute dog :D - The owner helped us with the Tuktuk problem we had. - Good for a one/two day stay and with a method of transportation.

The beds are very uncomfortable, mattresses are very thin. We had a lot of ants in the room and the bed, so we had to shake our sheets and put on the mosquito net right away. It was cheap, but we also had other stays for almost the same price per night and with way better amenities.

Nice location in the old town, close walking distance to temples and a local food restaurant. The owner is very friendly and welcomed us with a handmade juice.

Needs a fresh paint so that the rooms are as beautiful as the hosts!

Peaceful area, located between two lakes. Close to many of the old sites and only 5km from the new town. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful, and the manager went out of his way to show us local gems and happily dropped us off and collected us from various locations.Best of all you can hire bikes for 800lkr/day and cruise around - definitely the best way to see Anuradhapura. Thanks for having us Prema and Sandi

Well located close to Anuradhapura sacred city, perfect for sightseeing. Hosts were extremely welcoming and charming, made me feel like home. They have a scooter available to rent for good price. Thanks a lot for everything, looking forward to meeting you anytime soon.

Some of the reviews on Google are awful but I found my experience to be fine. I was the only person staying and I never really enjoy this when I'm traveling alone, but the host was nice and accommodating and drove me into town on the back of his bike for dinner for no charge. Location-wise it wasn't ideal for me, although you can hire bicycles from the guesthouse for 800LKR/day, and you can get around by bike pretty easily. I found the location too isolated for a solo traveller, and when I cycled back after sunset about ten dogs chased me down a dark path which was a little unnerving. You are basically sleeping right out in the jungle and can hear all the jungle sounds, this may be a positive or a negative depending on what you like! I wore earplugs but before I put them in I could definitely hear lots of animal sounds and scratching. If you had your own transport this might be quite an ideal location. The host also has a tuktuk, he took me to my next destination in this and charged about 20% more than Pickme (after bartering the price down). Well located to access the temples and historical sites, as well as close to the lake for sunset, just a bit isolated for me! Shared bathroom was fine, hot shower was great, no complaints. Room had a fan and a mosquito net.

This place is good if you want a cheap room and it doesn't matter for you share the bathroom. You can rent bike for visit the near places and the owner has tuk tuk for drop you to all places with cheap price. The owner is very good and happy person. He managed me safari in Wilpattu National Park, and I could see a wild Leopard... This place is for travelers. This place is not for luxury tourist.

The Name "City resort" is not properly chosen as its quite far from the City. Brema would take you there and pick up for 600LKr. In the room was a very bad smell which gave me a headache the whole next day. That's why we cancelled the 2nd night there.

Brema, the host is such a lovely person. He even texted before arrival if he can pick us up somewhere. He did our laundry over night. You could store drinks or food in a fridge. The room was okay, towel available. Brema offers Taxi Service as well which was really cool.
