J’ai séjourné à deux reprises dans cet hostel en l’espace de deux semaines. J’ai été très bien accueilli. L’homme (plutôt âgé) qui gère les lieux veille sur ses invités comme un membre de la famille le ferait avec nous. On se sent en confiance. Les lieux sont propres et le petit-dej sri lankais est hyper bon
Tout était parfait

老房子感觉不错!
改进的地方就是客人准备喝的水及空调和私密性!

Good hostel. Hot water, wifi, tea and coffee, nice staff, comfortable rooms. I arrived very late and there was someone to check me in.
Location is a bit far from everything but just take a tuk tuk.

Cute little place and perfect for someone arriving in Colombo/Sri Lanka or departing after having wonderful adventures in this country. The hosts were super friendly, fellow travelers open and the rooms good. Colombo was pretty hot when I arrived so I was happy to be in the A/C room for my last night. Would book again!
Location is a bit off but this has more to do with Colombo itself by not having a proper backpacker area or hostel area.

Hiru and Suji make this such a wonderful place to stay. They are so kind, helpful, and funny. They are always around to answer everyone’s questions, make delicious meals, and crack jokes.
The location is great - in a nice and relatively quiet area for Colombo, close to bus stops to get to other parts of the city.
The AC rooms are very nice and the beds are comfy. The showers have hot water and there is a nice common area to sit and chill. If I go back to Colombo I will most definitely stay here again!
Not a personal negative experience, but a word to the wise: the non-AC room is very open. It doesn’t have a door, and you have to walk through it to get to the other rooms. I spent a couple extra bucks on the AC room, which was comfy and quiet and I think very worth it.

Good location.
Very clean room. I was happy to be able to stay in a female dorm with AC.
The common area is a quite small.

Super nice location, helpful kind staff, clean rooms, clean bathrooms and delicious food
A little platform to put phone and other stuff by the bed would've been helpful

Location is absolutely stunning, out of the city’s hustle, in a clean administrative area and parks, yet close to interesting spots and restaurants. The owners are very friendly and I had a great experience during my stay. Price is also very reasonable.

Sweet little backpacker place in great location and very nice staff. It's located in an older building (50s?), thus high ceilings and the female dorm is airy, spacious and full of light. The beds are comfy, clean and very practical as each has a power socket and curtains. Toilets and washing room were as clean as it can get in a hostel, toilets a bit small and low pressure but this was made up for by the spacious showers with great water pressure. The shared space at the entrance is where the family and the architecture of the place shine. There's a café-style seating area to chill or eat and a couch to have a nice chat with the family.
Location is great, close to lots of ATMs, cafés and the National Museum practically across the street. Felt very safe walking in the area. All in all, excellent value for money and a great backpacker home.
Nothing, all great

The Hostal is situated in a calm and quiet area comparing to other areas and it belongs to a very friendly family.If you want a be feel that like a family ,this will be your hostal.
They have AC and non AC rooms with beds .Even the place is little bit small ,They have managed to keep rooms and wash rooms super clean. This place has a kitchen if you like to cook your self.
we had a candle party with hoppers as a treat!Love the vibe that they created .
If you like to enjoy nightlife.From this location its not so far for some places.You can walk on foot!
There was a mini supermarket near to the place which is open 24 hours.
it would be great if they provide a lock to the cupboard.Sometimes its necessary.

Their owners! They made me feel at home! Hiru it's an amazing host. He is so helpful and attentive and always has a smile on his face. Marsha and Haren are part of the family and they are very warmhearted and friendly, too. If I go back to Colombo I'll visit them again for sure! The location is great also! I loved the quiet area around, it's just in front of the new theater and close to the national museum.

I liked that everything was kept very clean all the time. The ac was working perfectly along with wifi. The property is also located in a great location where everything is available by foot.
That I could not stay longer.

Los dos encargados son maravillosos, muy amables y siempre estan dispuestos a ayudarte en todo. El hostel está en una zona muy buena, las camas son cómodas con sábanas limpias. La ducha tiene agua caliente y el internet es muy bueno. Me sentí como en casa.
Quizás podrían hacer un mejor lugar para relajarse y trabajar, con un ventilador para que sea fresco y mejorar la luz.
