+The family was super lovely, helpful with recommendations and even let us use their motorbike.
−Room was full of ants and bathroom had a funky smell. It's okay for a night but I wouldn't stay here any longer.

“Bindu's Homestay was a delight with fantastic cooking.”
+We stayed at Bindu Homestay for one night to see the Buduruwagala Ancient Site the next day on the way to Dickwella. Obviously the ancient site was amazing and a must see, but our stay at Bindu's turned out to be exceptional. The guesthouse is wonderful. Located in the back lanes near Wellawaya and just lovely for wandering around exploring the local area and people. The true star of our stay was Bindu's wife, such a nice person and a super host and cook. Dinner and breakfast were fantastic. We did not meet Bindu as he was away due to his taxi business. Our room was very clean, comfortable and with good air conditioning. Dinner and breakfast was superb. Amazing ginger tea. Highly recommended.
−All very good.

“Good location for Buduruwagala Raja Maha Viharaya”
+Spotlessly clean, very comfortable bed and pillows. We have been in Sri Lanka 19 days so far, staying in home stays and the food in Bindu was exceptional to us. Lovely hosts.

“Very good”
+We received great hospitality from.Bindu and his wife. Thier little boy escorted us to the park for a walk which was lovely. Dinner and breakfast were delicious. However we were disappointed with the room as it looked nothing like the pictures..for instance the bright blue paint in the bathroom was flaking off and looked really tatty. Bedlinen was poor quality as were the towels..one looked like a microfiber travel towl. It was a shame as had those things been better we could have scored higher. We were also disturbed by loud noise from a neighbours party which Bindu had been invited to so was aware and perhaps should have offerred us the chance to cancel as it was really loud till the early hours. With a little effort this homestay could be really nice as the hosts were really lovely and friendly.
−Poor quality bed linen , towels and condition of the bathroom

“Don’t believe the ratings, owner cancels bookings when he expects bad reviews”
−Our whole experience there was terrible. Disgusting bathroom with cold water only and confrontational attitude of the owner ruined our stay.

“Fantastische home-stay bij een geweldige familie”
+Fantastisch vers homemade breakfast, geweldige verrassing. Net als de avondmaaltijd trouwens, een van de lekkerste maaltijden die we hebben genuttigd op onze reis. Daarnaast is het een erg lieve familie die ons ontvingen. Onze kinderen zijn met de kinderen van Bindu zelfs op pad gegaan met fietsen om de omgeving te verkennen en te zwemmen samen. Verder is de omgeving erg rustig, met een prachtig tempelcomplex op loopafstand en met de tuktuk ben je binnen een half uur bij fantastische watervallen. Authentiek, dorps, echt een aanrader als home-stay. Dank familie!
−In de ene kamer raakte een gootsteen verstopt. We konden toen onze intrek nemen in de andere kamer. Heel fijne service!
