Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: I wanted to come to this hostel for sure and it just matched all my expectations and even exceeded it. When I saw the tranquility of the lake and the jungle around for the first time, I felt that there is nothing more that I need in my life. Kiri and Manee are giving their best to make this place comfortable for us and they are also very sociable. All other staff are nice and kind too. I felt calm and relaxed. I also met many other hearted people here, with whom I became friends. The place always has good vibes. So I came back again cuz it feels like a home in Sri Lanka. Best love to all of you ❤️
