This hotel is located front of Colombo - Galle main road. So easily to access shopping mall, Restaurant, Hospital and bus stop. I spent two days at this place. I do not like a person who works at the front desk. He does not care so much about the guests. I don't know his name. But the senior people in this hotel should be more concerned about such people. Because this directly affects the reputation of the hotel. But all the other staff are very friendly. The room I was in was a luxurious cozy room. They have arranged beautifully. All the linens are clean. The bathroom is also quite spacious and clean. It also has a private balcony. WiFi speed slowed down a bit. Also the heat in the hot water is quite low. But I can recommend that place to everyone.

Very clean hotel with friendly staff. Better than I expected. Ideal for travelers who only need a clean room to stay. There are two cons: They don't give two cards for the room which is an inconvenient if the couple want go out to do different things. To extend the stay, they prefer we go through online rather than directly at the hotel which is an inconvenient. Overall I recommend this hotel.
