I couldn't have asked for a better location, being near the coast and just a short tuk-tuk ride from the fort station, perfect for my needs. The room had a vintage charm, especially with the amazing sea view at dawn and dusk, though it felt a bit old-fashioned. The staff was incredibly friendly and apologetic, a real highlight of my stay. The dining experience was good, but could use more variety in breakfast options. The hotel facilities were adequate, offering a pleasant stay overall.

The hotel offers rooms that are well-maintained and in better condition, with the option to upgrade to deluxe rooms for a more comfortable stay.

I stayed on the second floor and though the room needed more cleaning, I found some cockroaches inside the toilet and the room. The service was excellent, especially the reception staff, with a very friendly person named Buddhika. However, there is room for improvement in handling foreign guests. The location is near Majestic Center Mall and Galle Road, perfect for shopping but affected by construction noise nearby. The dining experience lacked variety, but the organic chicken was succulent. Overall, it was an okay stay for a night in Colombo, despite the noise and construction.

The hotel is located near the coast, just a 10-minute tuk-tuk ride from the fort station. The rooms are basic and in need of decoration, some with balconies and windows, but there is a noticeable smell of cigar smoke and yellow discoloration. The location is fine, close to the majestic center mall and Galle Road where popular fast-food chains are within a short walk. The dining experience needs improvement in terms of variety, especially for breakfast. Despite these drawbacks, the hotel is suitable for short stays, especially before catching an early flight from the airport.

The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with spacious bathrooms and large cozy beds, although the decor and fittings might seem a bit dated. It's considered good value for money, especially during the less crowded periods, even though from April to June, it can get busy due to holidays. The staff is really helpful, from providing directions to assisting with porter services, although caution is advised when it comes to financial transactions as there were reported issues. The location is convenient, close to shopping areas and restaurants, easy to reach and approximately a 10-minute tuk-tuk ride to the fort station near the coast in Colombo. The dining experience needs improvement with options needing an upgrade. The facilities are decent but could benefit from enhancements.
