Pleasant host. Good location; walkable to the center, though a little uphill on the way back. Room was spacious and comfortable. Bathroom was okay. Breakfasts were good. As for negatives: hot water was inconsistent. WiFi generally did not work in the room, which is frustrating. Bath mat was dirty such that I didn’t want to step on it (I’d suggest getting rid of the rug-type and get the easily washed towel-type). Upon arrival, the hostess called in a “free government tourist officer” (?). He offered Information about things to see and do, and offered to arrange transportation via his office’s own tuktuk (at a cost much higher than I was able to arrange on my own). I found this all puzzzling, as this was the only time in a month of travel in Sri Lanka that I heard of anything like this, and I found him to be quite pushy and confusing.
