At the homestay, all units include a desk. Featuring a private bathroom with a bidet and free toiletries, units at the homestay also provide guests with free WiFi. The units include a safety deposit box. The room was spacious, very clean, and the temperature was great. We also had two fans in the room on top of that. The breakfast in the morning was amazing, definitely the best we've had in Sri Lanka at our hotels. Big and delicious! The mosquito net in the room was very nice as well. The family running the guesthouse were also very lovely and helpful. I would absolutely recommend to stay here.
