Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Wir hatten einen 4-Bett-Raum für 20$ die Nacht gebucht (4Nächte). Als wir ankamen hat man uns erzählt dass sie nicht wüssten wie wir diesen Raum für dieses Geld gebucht haben konnten weil er eig. 44$ kostet (nicht unser Problem). Als wir in das Zimmer kamen totale Katastrophe: Bretterbude vom Feinsten. Überall ist der Wind zwischen gezogen, das Bad sah nicht besser aus. Abgeschlossen wurde mit einem Vorhängeschloss... Wir haben noch am selben Tag gefragt ob wir den Raum wechseln und nur 2 Nächte bleiben dürften - das ging dann, sind aber natürlich auf dem Verlust sitzen geblieben. Dieses Zimmer nannte sich GlassHouse und war auch genauso zerbrechlich. Man sollte sich nicht an die Wände lehnen —> Plastikkonstruktion !! Endlich keine Bretter mehr, dafür eine Ameisenstraße durch den halben Raum und die Nächte haben wir auch mit zwei Gekos teilen müssen. Es war in Kalpitiya etwas kälter in den Nächten und es gab keine Decken somit zwei sehr kalte Nächte. In der Zeit als wir nun in dem GlassHouse wohnten konnten wir unseren ehemaligen Raum beobachten und mussten voller Entsetzen feststellen, dass in diesem Raum das Servicepersonal übernachtet. Wollte man uns also wirklich in einem Mitarbeiterbretterbau einquartieren. Nach der Erkenntnis waren wir sowieso durch mit diesem Resort und diesem Ort.

親切なご主人と最高の眺め

最安値での宿泊。コスパは良いです。ウェルカムドリンクにていただいたパイナップルジュースは最高でした。立地はかなりはずれにあるため自力での旅行を楽しんでいる方にオススメです。1つのハウスに水シャワーと扇風機ベットがある必要最低限の部屋ですが、部屋の向かいがすぐ海と眺めは最高です。ご主人がとても親切で一緒に旅のプランを考えてくれましました!マスターありがとう!おかげさまで最高の旅になりました!

More a guest house than a resort

Maybe it gets better when the building of the central house is ready, and the plot and the waterfront is tidied up.
