Главное кампания! Отель лишь место ночлега )) Main Campaign! The hotel is just a place to sleep

We came to Sri Lanka for the second time.
We were in Hikkaduwa for the first time. We rested in this hotel with a campaign of 7 people.
In general, the hotel is normal for a troika, but there are a number of unpleasant moments.
The first thing that especially drew attention - at 22-00 every evening at the hotel they lock the doors to the courtyard and access to the beach. You can't go to the ocean! Sit outdoors in the courtyard of the hotel and by the pool too!
Only the main entrance to the hotel remains - which goes directly to a noisy street with heavy traffic. This situation is reminiscent of some Soviet-era children's camp.
The second is the situation with Wi-Fi. Passwords are some 20-digit numbers and letters that are changed every day, sometimes several times. You have to go to the lobby for a new password. Wifi is weak during the day. You can easily watch the video at night))
The hotel pool is tiny. Everything around him is in concrete. Uncomfortable. Sunbeds - old wooden monsters))

The rooms are very different depending on the category. We had Deluxe and Standard. Big difference! ! The deluxe has a frontal ocean view. Huge windows to the ceiling. Normal repair.
Standards - with a dead repair. The view from the window can be on a construction site or a courtyard. The room size is much smaller.
Food - normal for a hotel of this category.
Breakfasts are ordinary. Nothing special. Dinners were different. Several times it was simply perfectly cooked and varied - in the hotel there was apparently one of the important guests. But overall, I would rate it well.
The staff speaks almost all English. Cleaning - every day. The guys are trying. A tip and a smile allowed us to solve all the small issues and our requests. During the 14 days of stay at this hotel, no major problems arose.
Near the hotel there is a good beach and a coral reef. Walk along the beach to the turtles - 10 min. walking step.
It is convenient to buy fruits and seafood - next to the hotel in 3 minutes there are fish and fruit markets. Alkomarket - in front of the hotel. The advertised Red Rum is actually sweet nonsense)) But Lion beer is of really good quality.
Everything else was fine and without problems. But the second time in this hotel does not want to go.
In general, the hotel lives up to its 3 stars, only live better in deluxe rooms.
For many years of travel, I understood the main rule of a good holiday - take your good trusted friends with you and then there will be no time and desire to notice the shortcomings of the hotel.
Sri Lanka is an interesting exotic country. There are many attractions. Rich flora and fauna. We did not sit in the hotel and managed to look around and enjoy a huge number of sights. I really liked Sigiriya, Pollonaruwa, the Ella area with waterfalls. Gorgeous botanical garden! Ride on the railroad in the mountains. Were in Trincomal, it's also interesting there. We couldn't get to Pigeon Island because of a storm in Nulaveli ((

We also visited tea plantations, elephant farms, a spice garden, waterfalls, and a rain forest. The local guide organized all these excursions and trips for reasonable money. We have been riding around Sri Lanka for the second year already. Thanks Mano!

Have a good rest everyone))
