“Exceptional Stay 8 min walk from the train station- Highly Recommended!”
+We had a wonderful experience staying here - just an easy 8-minute walk from Ella train station, which was super convenient. The host was amazing and made us feel incredibly welcome from the moment we arrived. He even organized a special trip for us to visit secret waterfalls, where we could swim and enjoy the peaceful surroundings - it was a true highlight of our trip! The view from our balcony was absolutely stunning, overlooking lush green mountains. It was the perfect spot to relax with a cup of tea and soak in the beauty of Ella. The hospitality, the scenery, and the overall atmosphere made our stay unforgettable. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Ella!

“So nice staff! And close to the station”
+Room and bathroom are big, with balcony. The staff prepared the breakfast for next morning to take with us, and it was delicious. Really friendly, kind and helpful, like all the people in sri lanka. Its a lovely place and just 10’ walking to the train station
−The place is in a high location. But not a problem for healthy people

“Hilltop hideaway minutes' walk away from Ella town”
+Friendly and helpful staff - I was warmly welcomed right from the start, and they also did little things like offer me a ride up to the guest house in the golf cart as i was walking back to my room and helping to guide my driver when he was reversing the car in a tight space early in the morning before sunrise. Beautiful location and view - it may be located near the top of a steep slope, but that also means there's a wonderful view of Ella town and the surroundings. I enjoyed sitting at my balcony and enjoying the cool air and the views. It's also just a short few minutes' walk down to the main town centre, but is far enough away to avoid the noise (apart from if there's a cricket match going on that has the commentary seemingly on loudspeaker so that people living two valleys away can follow what's going on) Comfortable room - More than enough space for a solo traveller and there's also a big balcony that could fit a small family. Breakfast - decent variety (though it was the same for both days I was there, which is no issue for me) and filling Side note - it takes some guts or at least experience in handling steep slopes and narrow roads if you are driving up to the guest house

“Good”
+All basic facilities were provided. Breakfast was good.
−It’s too stiff to carry the bags. Tuktuk even didn’t want to go up. To have food and other facilities you have to walk.

“Exceptional”
+Great location. Close to many tourist attractions. Very peaceful environment and the host is polite and helpful.
−If you're coming on a vehicle with low ground clearence, you'd have a bit of trouble at the beginning of the road.

“Very friendly and polite staff, comfortable stay in close proximity to sites of Ella, would recommend :)”
+Very respectful and polite staff. Excellent breakfast, by far the best we’ve had during our stay. Close proximity to city centre. Comfortable stay, good shower.
−Please note the hotel is at the top of a very very steep hill, would be difficult to access for anyone with mobility issues. Tin roof a bit loud in the wind/rain at night. No AC.
