I always stay here and never regret it. The staff found my lost ring on my first stay, so I remember it. This place suits me perfectly: Wi-Fi, car park, swimming pool, and pets allowed. Can't wait to come back for New Year!

Close to everything - this hostel is in a great location, within walking distance to major attractions and a shopping mall with a food court. Staff - the staff were friendly and helpful, especially the female night manager who went above and beyond during my stay. Roof terrace - a nice place to relax and meet other travelers, with a real backpackers' vibe. Included breakfast - a nice touch to start the day.
Nothing, it is perfect.

The staff was super cool and helped us with everything we needed. The rooftop area was epic, we chilled there and had epic views of the city. The rooms were clean and so cheap, we could spend more money on exploring Colombo. Oh, and the Wi-Fi was on point for uploading our sick pics!
If there was one thing we could've asked for, it would be a party vibe at the hostel. We wanted to meet more young travelers like us and have a blast together.

Recently stayed at this hostel during my trip to Colombo. The location is excellent, with attractions, shops, and restaurants all within walking distance or a short tuk tuk ride away. The check-in process was easy and the staff were very helpful, providing us with a map and recommendations for places to visit. The room was clean and comfortable, with great bathroom facilities. The large secure lockers in the room were a nice touch as well.
Would definitely recommend this hostel.

This hostel is located in the heart of the city, hidden in a back alley, making it a convenient base for exploring the nearby Buddhist temples. it is just a short walk away from a shopping mall with a food court, perfect for grabbing a quick bite to eat. the rooms are clean and well-maintained, with both AC and fans to keep you comfortable. the staff is friendly and helpful, ensuring a pleasant stay. the rooftop area offers a nice view and the breakfast provided is simple yet satisfying.
One of the downsides is that the hostel can be a bit tricky to find initially, but once you locate it, it's in a convenient location.

Great stay at a hostel with a good location and a lot of nearby sites within walking distance. The roof terrace was a nice place to relax and meet people. The staff was friendly and accommodating, finding a solution for any issues we had. The hostel also provided useful tips, such as using the Pick Me app for fair tuktuk prices. I would recommend this hostel for a pleasant stay in the city.

Great location: The hostel is conveniently located near the Prime Minister Residence and a shopping mall with a food court, making it easy to explore the area and access restaurants and shops.
Lack of air conditioning: While the ceiling fans helped with comfort during the night, air conditioning would have been a welcome addition, especially during hot and humid daytime temperatures.

Me and my friends had a blast staying here. We could surf the web easily and the WiFi was super fast. Plus, it was within walking distance to some really cool shops and restaurants. We also loved chilling on the rooftop and enjoying the view. It was the perfect spot for us to hang out and have a great time.
The only thing we wished for was a better party atmosphere. It would have been epic if there were some fun events or activities organized for young people like us.
