    Absulutely recommended for Jaffna! The Building Is clearly new and It Is well kept, clean rooms, perfect bathrooms and clean beds! The little garden had even a couple of fruit trees like papaya or bananas. Everyone is extremily kind and welcoming. Even though some may speak little to no english, they still try to comunicate with the little world they know and a super kind smile. When we came back the first night from the dinner, we had a little chat with the night keeper, he was extremily nice. He even got us a papaya to eat in the morning. Soo kind! The place is super close to the centre, less than 5 mins by tuk tuk, which you can order yourself on the app Pickme or they will order it for you. If the speaking english guy is not present, he is always reachable by phone for any useful information, even to suggest some really nice restaurants. He would even come back anytime needed. Moreover, by mistake we forgor to pay, and the person responsible was so kind to come to the bus station instead of making us go back. Super nice and extremily helpful. Lastly, to have breakfast on top of the building is really nice. The terrace ha a nice view of the sourranding. Highly reccomend it to anyone visiting Jaffna!!

    Very modern building with outstanding plumbing, powerful AC and wi-fi. Close to a three wheel park to go wherever you wish in town. Staff members very nice to customers. Good Srilankan breakfast. In the “common area” there’s a kitchen with a large fridge in case you wish to cook something. I think I will return if in the area again.

    No shampoo/bath foam in the bathroom only soap bars. No desk in the room but in front of it there’s a living room (to be shared with the others room on the floor) with a large table. Same menu in 4 days for breakfast.

    Rooms were decent size and clean . Staff were friendly and helpful.

    May be restaurant facilities would be an added benefit for the customers.

    Very comfortable bed, with amazing AC. Beautiful different terraces, especially the roof top where you have breakfast. It was also nice to be able to fill up our water bottles.

    The staff didn’t really speak English, so we couldn’t really connect and ask for recommendations/advices. The hotel is located next to the train track, so be prepared to be woken up around 04:00 each morning by the train horn (quite scary the first time, when you’re not expecting it). Bathroom could be way cleaner (we also had two cockroaches but that’s quite normal for Sri Lanka).

    That he came to get me on his bicycle. That he loaned me an adapter so I could charge my phone and when I went to return it he said I could keep it but I didn't.

    The room was horrible. Very unwelcoming, no water bottle let alone tea or coffee. The bathroom, shared by 4 rooms, I think, was filthy. The tap was disgusting and I think there were 4 men using it and two women. I have travelled solo and stayed in accommodation in 30+ countries and I compare this to the worst which was in China. I'm 76 years old and riding a motor scooter around Sri Lanka I have stayed in 4 other places, 3 of which were fabulous and the 4th okay. Also the 'garden' is a strip of weeds. It looks great as you drive in but I was allocated a room in a sqalid corner of the servants quarters. This was my first booking through Booking.com.

    Fabulous property! Very well done villa style. Great kitchen area for those who like to prep there own meals.

    Nothing, well done! Only microwave to heat things, but I understand why that is.

    Great location for transportation, services and amenities. Still in a quiet neighborhood. Cleanest new building with a cool breeze from the trees around. More than enough personnel for security, maintenance etc. I rented a small single room, but there are bigger a/c rooms with plenty of common space to accommodate groups.

    I enjoyed variety of breakfast meals served daily. However, I thought it could have been left out of the package because there are many different restaurants in the neighborhood to eat out, at any time of my choosing.
