Really lovely property in the middle of Galle fort. Walking distance to everything. Only stayed one night but the host was very kind, lent an umbrella when it was raining.

Super central, simple, functional, clean. I was glad still to find a place like this in the increasingly gentrified Galle Fort.

Great location in a silent little street, but only a minute walk from all the bars and shopping streets. Owner and assisting boy were amazing. Helped with everything what was needed. In a common space there is a kettle to make your own tea or coffee, also filtered water. Room is basic and spacious enough. A little balcony was a good benefit to get some fresh air in the room. Fan and air-conditioning work perfectly.
