HOSTELWORLD REVIEWS
Denmark · Hostelworld 9.7/10
This hostel was really nice — I had a great time. They offer blankets as it gets cold at night, and if you need anything, the staff are really helpful.
England · Hostelworld 9.7/10
Amazing staff, nice vibe. The rooms are cold so make sure you have warm clothes — the staff gave us extra blankets when we needed them and were super helpful. Best spot in this area to stay.
Denmark · Hostelworld 10/10
Really amazing staff — they made us feel so comfortable and we got to learn so much about their culture in Sri Lanka. It felt like we were a family, especially with the free dinners included.
