Janith the host was the real highlight! Such a kind gentleman with great English. Made us feel very welcome and had great suggestions for where to eat in town. Location of this accommodation is also perfect - very near town for food and access to bus station but not noisy. Very peaceful. Would highly recommend to anyone travelling through to or from Ella or Diyaluma falls. The room was sufficient. While the rest house in general had certainly seen better days, the room was very clean, had air con, hot water, 2 beds with mosquito nets, provided soap and towels and even had mineral water and a fridge that could be ysed in the communal area.
