“below average”
well look you get what you paid for but my friend who got a hotel right infront of this hotel for the same price was clean and overall so much better the beds and all were terrible at this place it was really dusty and the shower heads don’t work but again you get what you paid for but there’s always a better deal somewhere else

“Extremely disappointed”
During our stay at Swiss Lanka Inn, a large amount of cash and a valuable wedding ring were stolen from us. Our room was always locked, and there were no signs of a break-in. Since our valuables were well hidden, it appears that someone deliberately searched through all of our luggage. Although we were offered help after the incident, we had the feeling that the interest in our valuables was greater than the concern for guest safety. This sense of mistrust significantly affected our stay. If you value security, you should carefully consider whether this accommodation is the right choice. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend it.

“Good accommodation for that price.”
The hosts are super friendly! They can provide breakfast too. You can purchase drinking water & coffee at a fair rate. The room is basic but it's well priced and it has a good location. 5 minutes walk from the beach.

“Great value and location”
Spacious and clean rooms. Very friendly and helpful hosts who were always there if you needed anything. Excellent location, close to town/beach/restaurants but far enough away that it was peaceful. The place is even nicer than the pictures and great value for money. We loved the balcony and sea views. We would stay again! Thank you.
