Budget stay on the beach.

The location is wonderful, right on the beach. The rooms have a decent sized balcony. The staff were pleasant, honest and helpful. The owner himself cooked wonderful pasta and sandwich for us. Breakfasts were adequate and cooked as per request. Be warned, the regular cook's food is very heavy on salt. Instruct amount according to your preference. There is no staff there overnight, but if you do step out for a late night, the watchman will let you in.

The bathroom was a very good size, but very basic. It needs a shower curtain, at least, and decent fixtures and more lighting. The room is smaller than it looks in the photos, but the bed is huge. If the extra, unneeded chairs were removed from the room, space would be created. The fridge provided, was right next to the bed, in a very uncomfortable position. If some thought was put into rearranging the room, it would make it real value for money.

with my detailed description, I tried to be brief and to the point

Nothing. that's horrible

the hotel is dirty and broken: The windows from the bathroom look out onto a platform where any burglar without temptation can, even from the street, come in from the street and climb through the window. In our room, the window hooks did not close. There is no safe in the room. the hooks from the door to the balcony were broken. the keyhole from the front door and the air conditioners are rusty and dirty. I was with my wife in that hotel from 2 o'clock in the afternoon until 10 am the next morning. During this time it turned off 3 times air conditioning and light. It was very stuffy at night. Because, as the staff once again fixed the electricity, the air conditioning was 16 C and the fan was not working well. The pool is dirty. We arrived after check-in and we had to ask the guys to wash the pool from branches and dirt. they did it, but it didn't get any better. in the morning: we wrote in booking that we want to change the reservation instead of 4 nights to 1 night. (Bukin helped. Thank you very much for your support and protection of users). The owner of the hotel, when he found out that we wanted to leave, began to show an aggressive tone when talking. And he didnt want to let us go until we canceled the reservation, due to the fact that he didnt want to pay a $30 tax. And he constantly asked to show his phone number, which was what Booking was writing about the cancellation. We said that it was illegal to detain us, because our dialogues should be conducted through the booking account to which my bank card is linked. Regarding the beach, the hotel is not located in Bentota. It is located nearby, the waves are very strong, you can only swim on the edge 400 meters to the left in a small area where there are water rocks. I am a Doctor, my wife is an Architect. We have traveled a lot and know what a 3 star hotel is. This is not a hotel or a service, and we are amazed at such a high rating and good comments.
