Tony L. Couples China, April 28, 2013	It was a pass-by. Easy access for local drivers. Nice Garden, Sea view restaurant and historical building 7 We were passing by Colombo for the south. For longer staying, I would prefer some nicer hotels with better room conditions. In fact there are many nice hotels in Colombo such as the Park Street Hotel and Tintigel:)
