The room and the space exceeded my expectations, I was pleasantly surprised. Staff where very friendly and helpful. For a budget stay Inn, it really was an amazing experience and the room certainly was not of budget standard at all. I loved the hippy and modern décor, made it feel very chilled compared to bustle happening outside. A very calm space was created.

It's very affordable. I only stayed for a few hours before my flight, just to be able to get some rest, shower, and eat. They have good food and are not that expensive either. Staff are really nice. They did not ask me for a deposit anymore since I was not staying overnight. They also have pool and met some good travelers but have no time to know them longer.

All hostels in Mount Lavinia

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The staff of the hostel was super friendly and helpful, extremely nice people. I was in a dorm but I had the room for myself. It has AC and it is super clean. The rooms are big, comfy and renovated. Breakfast was also included, it's a super good deal for the price!

If you are a seasoned backpacker, you will appreciate this hostel. If not, you may find it basic. But the staff were incredible, so helpful and lovely. No hot water but you don’t really need it with the temperatures.

Maria is an excellent host and always ready to help. The hostel is located really near to the beach and has good rooms. The common area specially the roof top is really pretty. You can stay here if you want to meet new people and have some fun parties.
