When I checked in to the hotel I had paid for 2 guests and I said I will be having a friend over and the manager said that they only alllw couples at the property and wanted me to show my marriage certificate and I was flabbergasted as I’ve traveled to over 30 countries and I’ve NEVER had to show my marriage certificate lol will never stay here ever again. Room was small smelled of smoke.

建物が少しわかりづらいところにあります。さらにビルの入り口にいるガードマン(？)の方にカードキーでエレベーターを操作してもらい、3F受付まで辿り着く必要があります。 ホテルの内装は清潔で、部屋も日本のビジネスホテルに近いものになっています。ただし窓が薄く道路が近いためか、夜は少し外の音が気になりました。 テラスで海を見ながらの朝食は最高でした。

Fantastic Residence Hotel in Colombo,Sri Lanka
Fantastic residence-type business hotel to stay.Very attentive, helpful and friendly receptionist (all) and breakfast staff. Room serviced daily, and there is always help available if you need it. Healthy breakfast with tropical fruits and juice ''continental breakfast''. My experience with this hotel is excellent and up to standard. I will definitely be back at this hotel someday. Thank you.

The hotel is tucked away in a little alley across from Barefoot Cafe. The room is spotless, cozy, and filled with free coffee and cookies. Imran was very friendly and was able to arrange transportation to the airport.

This hotel is in an office building on Galle Road, a few hundred meters from the sea. The rooms are nice, aircon and ceiling fans are strong, hot shower, good breakfast. Plenty of restaurants in walking distance. Easy to get Uber or auto rickshaw out front. Will definitely stay again. Thanks to Imran and the staff for a great stay.

Okaish but needs improvements
The bathroom size was way too small, when sitting on the toilet your knees will touch the wall which makes it uncomfortable.

8/10 Very good

Good but very small.
The Hotel was well located and accessible with helpful and competent staff the only problem was the size of the room, we had checked on the Web and the rooms looked good, however when we arrived the room was so small that there was more room in most closets, the bathroom was so small to use the toilet you had to sit with your feet outside the door. The staff were competent and helpful and the room was very clean but, as I said, very small.

Great room and location, just very small
This hotel is in the perfect location with a lot of cafes nearby. It was very modern and comfy, but the rooms were very small and felt cramped. It also had a very large security safe in the room, which was great, as I could put my computer and other valuables in there and the entire place felt very secure. It's in the heart of the city so you can walk outside and see many beautiful places.

Ok price but noisy
Stayed here for 2 nights in total. Took a while to find but got there in the end. Room was not bad, great shower but small toilet area. Our room was just so noisy with all the cars and tuk tuk beeping their horns every second of the day and I couldn't wait to get out. The gentleman on reception was very nice and helpful who to arrange what train to get down south. Probably wouldn't stay here again and would pay extra for somewhere else.

Convenient and clean hotel
Great budget hotel, very comfortable, exactly as advertised. Staff was very friendly. Only complain would be that the bathroom is way too small and the doors are see through which gives you a lack of privacy when using the bathroom.

Convenient hotel, good service
Good hotel, spacious room, good location, nice service, nice breakfast the only problem we had with the room is the noise isolation. The street below is a major traffic artery of the city and we can hear the cars and busses pretty well.
