Very 👎 bad behaviour with the tourists

We had a very comfortable stay at the hotel. The staff, Alex, was particularly very considerate. The hotel even provided us with complimentary breakfast on the first day since they felt that we came early in the morning and might not be able to go out for breakfast in time.Really nice of them! The place had a very large living space with a well-stocked kitchen and utensils. Will definitely recommend this place.The communication from the hotel was also very clear and the location markers provided were spot on.

Very clean luxurious private room with attached bathroom for a nice price in Mount Lavinia. The owner gave me even a free dinner delivered in my room!

Tough to locate at night. Owner asked me time of arrival via email. Told him 11:30pm. We parked near police station and phoned owner continuously for about 20 minutes. No answer. Then suddenly a staff member appeared from a gate nearby and guided us in. Not a great start if youre coming straight from the airport. Non A/C rooms can become hot, even with Fan on!. Kitchen and lounge area is nice. You can help yourself to Tea. Gas cooker is there if youre in to your cooking. However, take away Kottu, fried rice, noodles all available from restaurant nearby.This booking was only for three days and was for a non-ac room. On checking-out, I returned after two weeks and booked an A/c room for 1 month directly with the owner, so cannot comment on that particular booking here. BTW, no hot water showers in this hotel, and water from shower can be a bit cold.

Initially I wanted to stay at the Hillstreet Villa for a few days only, but then I just stayed there throughout my 3 week visit. (Except a few days on trips outside of Colombo) Shamil is a lovely host who will help you out at any time. His staff is friendly and everything is always clean and in order. There is a nice little kitchen, free tea, fridge... everything you need. It is a quiet and safe place - the police station is actually next door ;-) I recommend this place to anyone who likes an easy and affordable accommodation in a good area of town. It is a 5 minute-ride away from the beach, 7 minutes to Hotel Mt Lavinia, and even if you want to go all the way up to the harbour or the Galle Face, it'll be around 20 minutes (2€) in a Tuk Tuk. There is some real good Biryani at Big Bite Biryani almost next door, 2 supermarkets... I hope, you will enjoy this place as much as I do!

I would suggest to have a more comfortable bed.It was a plesent stay.Staff was very helffull
