7 / 10

Good location but loud music next door.

The host is amazing and was really helpful with arranging transportation for us! The location of the property is great - it’s close to the Lion’s rock and you can easily walk to any place in Sigiriya from it! Rooms have AC and the area/garden outside the property is quite nice.

The rooms are small and outdated. It would be nice to have more space for the luggage and clothing. There is a restaurant next door that plays really loud music until 1am - we could not sleep because of that.

5 / 10

Good value for money if you know what to expect

The family who run the place were really lovely, so helpful and sweet. But I honestly don't feel the 8.1 booking.com gives this is a true reflection of the place that you stay. It is so old, outdated and desperately needs modernising and renovating. The price is really great if you truly know what you're getting. Breakfast is included. Location is fab. Very central and right by restaurants etc. Air con was good. Free WiFi was good.

Old. Outdated. Big gaps under the door and between windows. Big enough for spiders and bugs to get in (we had a large spider come under the door!). Thin curtains which let the light in early. Walls were dirty/ mouldy/ stained?? They only take cash. Bathroom filled with water when you showered and very slowly disappeared down a corner. Family locked the gates one night and didn't tell us there was a key for the paddock on the gate alongside our room key on the set they gave us so we didn't know how to get in- it was only 930pm! Pictures on booking.com must be really old and not a true reflection of the place.

シギリヤロックまで歩いて行けます！オーナーやご家族も親切です。バナナのロティが最高においしかったです。

夜、音楽が少しうるさく感じたことと犬（野良犬がたくさんいるからだと思います）の鳴き声で夜中に何度か目が覚めた。宿の犬はおとなしいです。
