Среднестатистический азиатский отель небогатой страны Average Asian hotel in a poor country

Pedants and obsessed with cleanliness will not feel comfortable here (this is the case throughout Asia of the middle and small segments).

Hotel rating:

For a solid two.

Service - 5, always ask if everything suits.

Cleaning - 3 with a "-" (the cobwebs are not removed between the chairs, you need to ask for soap as needed), but the Sri Lankans themselves are not clean people. Maybe they clean as they see fit, normal ..

Location - 5. Although far from the airport, not as much entertainment as in Hikkaduwa (for example) and the nearest shop is 2 km away, it is quiet and there are few tourists. The beaches are free, at least run naked. In Hikkaduwa, there is nowhere for an apple to fall.

Comfort - 3.

Cons - on arrival shock from dampness in the bathroom, peeled plumbing, dust and cobwebs. Then you try not to notice. Take skin antiseptic, flip flops in the shower. Fungi and other things are in abundance here.

Pros: there is a massage center (2000 rupees.

1 hour of the whole body), warm pool (cleaned every morning), bar, not bad Wi-Fi in the lobby for free, hotel right on the beach.

In addition, I’ll write what you might encounter when leaving the hotel:

Firstly, if you are interested in where you can eat, I recommend a beach bar, where, without any spices and spiciness, they will cook fresh fish at a normal price. WE ate our entire stay there. A huge plus is that it is within walking distance (get off to the right metro 300, cross the Fortness hotel and on the beach you will find a bar right next to the playground)

Secondly, I highly DO NOT recommend taking anything and generally communicating with beach-boys, of which there are a lot of accumulated at the exit to the beach. As your skin becomes lighter, he already counts in his mind how much money he can cut down from you. In short, in our own skin, we understood:

1. The price for excursions is the same as for hotel guides (only at times it will not be of high quality).

2.
They will charge you 200% more overpayment for the same shrimp that their moms / dads / brothers supposedly cook in the bar that I wrote the price below and the side dish is included : )

3. And the third, no less important. They offer excursions, in particular on Lake Koggala, but in fact this is a detour around the islands of shops for your own money + part of the sale goes to beach-boys.

Draw conclusions and THINK.
