“Not my best choice..”
+Great and helpful staff. Room was decent (family room with private washroom) but private washroom was dirty. Sewage water coming from drain (upper floor) made it smell really bad. No hot water, even if there is a small boiler but this didn’t work. There was no blanket or sheet to sleep under. Looking at other reviews maybe i was there at a bad time, because also the included breakfast was not more than white bread, butter and jam. Only tea, no coffee (because we Sri Lankan people don’t drink coffee….). All together it was very minimal for a relatively high price. Staff was friendly but rest was minimal.

“Argh.”
+After a sweaty walk to find this hotel, we discovered it no longer existed!! We landed in a motorcycle repair shop with a gym on the 3rd floor. Scrambled to find another place to stay.
−It no longer exists.

+Personnel à l’écoute, je n’ai pas eu l’occasion de goûter au petit déjeuner car partie trop tôt. Un tableau d’affichage avec les horaires de bus/train/bateau m’a été très utile !

+The dorm is spacious and clean. There are lockers. Theres aso a kitchen that can be used.
−The wifi didn't work at all from the moment i checked in. When I asked the staff when it will be working again, they answered that they don't know, maybe tomorrow. They didn't seem motivated to fix anything. The wifi also didn't work the next day and neither the third day when i checked out. I also used the laundry service of the hostel, which was a very disappointing experience. Before giving them the laundry , I asked them when it would be finished as I had to take my bus the next day very early. They assured me that it will be finished at 8 in the evening. But at 8 when I went to pick up the laundry another person was working who didn't know anything about it. As the laundry wasn't finished, they kept postponing the time until I went to bed at 11 in the night without my laundry. The staff only laughed and didn't seem to take it serious. The next day, i found my laundry in the main hall, it was still wet and smelling bad. Overall very bad service and unmotivated staff.
