Was very basic. They didnt even suply toilet paper or shampoo. Just 1 soap small for the washroom. Just 1 towell also. Location wyse is cool and east to access othersited by walking or tuk tuk. There is a spa besides that is cool to get a massage and facial. If you look for 1 or 2 nights is a good budget option anyway. The ladybon reception is super nice and his husband.

Great stay with an inviting loving family. Quiet but walking distance to town. Stairs will be challenging for someone not in good physical condition. Hope to return someday. Great price and would recommend to any travel looking to calm and simple side of Ella.

Good all round choice

This is family run guest house conveniently located within walking distance of the railway station. Also only a 4 minute walk into the town centre ( which is fairly hectic at times ) This is located far enough away to be quiet and peaceful . You can hear the weekend cricket , but I think probably just about everyone in Ella can as well. The breakfasts were excellent and the staff friendly and helpful. I would recommend this as a place to stay.

Very nice setting in the hills of Ella; centrally located to all restaurants, bars and only 5 min walk away from the famous Ella train station. Very friendly owners; they greet you with a welcoming drink or coffee and help you up the stairs with the luggage. Breakfast is plenty and good. Overall good value for the price we’ve paid.

The accommodation was basic but comfortable, and the hosts were very welcoming. Access may be a bit challenging for anyone with mobility or stair climbing problems, but even for an older person such as I, the walk to/from the village was fine after the first time. The location is convenient for shops and restaurants , and very close to the railway station.

Great value for money!

Good standard and clean room, and amazing service by the hostess - she even prepared and packed our breakfast for us to take with us on our last day, as we had to check out and leave at 6AM.

Fantastic hotel

The hotel has a perfect location, it is close to Ella town but you still have the feeling of being out in nature and surrounded by trees. You can walk to both Ella Rock, little Adam’s Peak and the Nine Arch bridge from the hotel. The hotel is very nice and cosy, and it was very clean. The owner is so nice and helpful- we would definitely stay there again!

Suficiente, según estándares del pais

Casa de huéspedes. Alojamiento básico, según estándares del país. Podrían mejorar un poco la habitación del baño. El acceso en coche es difícil y estrecho en la última parte del camino. Recomiendo dejar el coche antes de la estación de policía. Como cosas a favor: Propietarios muy acogedores y serviciales. Para pasar una o dos noches cumple si tu presupuesto es bajo. La habitación estaba muy limpia. Está a 5 minutos andando de la calle principal de Ella. Está a 5 minutos andando de la Estación de tren.

Enkelt boende, knappt prisvärt

Mycket enkel standard på boende och service. Fuktigt och badrum i dåligt skick. Dåliga sängkläder.
