C’est dommage d’avoir des clims dans les chambres mais de les faire payer en option.
Limpieza, ubicación y servicios
Nada
He tingut una experiència excel·lent en aquest hotel. Les instal·lacions són modernes, netes i molt ben cuidades, fet que et fa sentir còmode des del primer moment. L'habitació era àmplia, tranquil·la i molt confortable, amb un llit molt còmode que em va permetre descansar perfectament. El personal va ser excepcional: amable, atent i sempre disposat a ajudar amb un somriure. El servei va ser ràpid i molt professional en tot moment. L'esmorzar era variat i de gran qualitat, amb opcions per a tots els gustos. A més, la ubicació de l'hotel és ideal, ja que permet desplaçar-se fàcilment als principals punts d'interès. Molt recomanat.
The owner & staff go to great lengths to look after their guests. It’s a really chill hostel with great facilities (good aircon & shower), great breakfast & conveniently just off the main road (that’s on the beach) in Mirissa. I recommend this as your choice of hostel stay in Mirissa.
I couldn’t bring the kitten home with me!
Chambre confortable et spacieuse! Nous avons beaucoup aimé l’ensemble des jeux disponibles et l’accès à la piscine!
It’s quite and Peaceful with enough spaces to socialize and have your own down time, which is great
Maybe the property can have a Ice machine
Comfortable room, privacy with the beds. Staff very helpful to give information and recommendations for Mirissa. Beautiful outdoor garden and pool.
Las instalaciones están muy bien, la piscina y el jardín muy cuidado y mejor que en las fotos. Las habitaciones son muy cómodas aunque con algo de humedad. Y el desayuno muy variado porque podías elegir con diferentes opciones.
Muchos gatos que destrozaron el tuk tuk pero son cosas que pasan!
Second stay here and it was great! Location is good and staff are helpful. Breakfast was also excellent.
Sometimes it was difficult to get PickMes from this location. Otherwise the location was great.
The beach is walkable
Poor facilities, there is no basic supplements not even water.
L'hostel est situé à quelques minutes de la plage. La piscine est très agréable. L'offre du petit déjeuner est très bien. La chambre et les parties communes sont propres. Nous avons passé un bon séjour que nous avons prolongé d'une nuit !
The hostel is nice and has everything you need, including a big living area and a kitchen for cooking. The staff were friendly and helpful. However, during my stay, it wasn’t very social. Overall, I still enjoyed my time there.
Wat een top verblijf! Een hele nette kamer met fan en ruime badkamer. De kamer was erg schoon! De tuin was waanzinnig met een groot grasveld, handmatten en een heerlijk zwembad. Ontbijt super, vooral French Toast was heel lekker.
Great pool, facilities, very comfy room. The staff were brilliant - let me check in a bit early and helped find a taxi to Ella at super short notice. Location is on a quiet road, a bit eery to walk down alone at night. Great cafe nearby and a tiny family run restaurant just a few steps away that served amazing food.
Nothing to note.
Our stay was lovely! The pool and the garden were so nice and the breakfast was yummy 😊 Good location.
L’accueil, la disponibilité des hôtes, la piscine, la propreté
Amazing staff, it's clean, toilets and showers are separate in the dorm. They clean the dorm everyday, sheets and towels every second day. Swimmingpool and yoga facilities were good. Breakfast is good! In high season they have lots of stuff happening.
Really nice place with amazing amenities. Pool and pool table were so much fun, as was the general upstairs common area.
If I could fault something, I was a little frustrated that the curtain did not encompass the bed and the blanket was very small so I woke up feeling a bit sick as I had the AC blowing on me all night
My private room was so clean and lovely. Always smelt lovely and staff were always cleaning.
It was quite quiet and breakfast could have been better.
Ruime kamer en genoeg gedeelde plekken om even te zitten of een spelletje te doen. Ook is er een ruim aanbod van activiteiten waar aandacht aan wordt gegeven. De yogaklas was prima, wasservice erg fijn. Het personeel is erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam.
De stroom viel meerdere keren uit. Dat is bekend in Sri Lanka, maar alsnog vervelend.
Very nice hostel for solo travellers who want to meet othet people.
Everything was good.
Cooles Rooftop mit Billiardtisch, toller Pool, nette Personal und leckeres Frühstück. Von kann vor Ort Geld wechseln und viele verschiedenen Touren buchen oder sich im Hostel beim Yoga Kurs anmelden.
Die Klimaanlage ist sehr stark und dass Bett nicht so ganz bequem. Außerdem könnte das Frühstück vielleicht etwas mehr Auswahl haben. Das sind nur Kleinigkeiten es lohnt sich trotzdem!!
Fijn zwembad. Ruime en goede douche. Leuke chill gelegenheden bij de hangmatten en pooltafel. Locatie heel goed, alles op loopafstand. Ontbijt was prima maar wel matig in vergelijking met andere plekken in Sri Lanka, jammer dat je bijvoorbeeld voor fruit moet bij betalen.
We hadden vooraf gevraagd of ze laundry service hadden, zeiden ze ja. Toen we bij inchecken onze was wilde laten doen zeiden ze dat we te kort verbleven (2 nachten) dus dat ze hier geen tijd voor hadden. Whale watching tour via hostel geboekt en dat was echt verschrikkelijk. Duur, de boot was een ellende met overgevende mensen en geen walvissen gezien. Via hostel werd verteld dat je niet in een massa gaat, maar we zaten net zo goed op een volle dubbeldekker boot met plastic stoeltjes. Geen aanrader.
I know there are a lot of fake reviews out there, so I want to be clear -this one is 100% real. If you’re looking for the best hostel in the area, this is it. I’ve stayed at several places around here, and nothing even comes close. Book it, you won’t regret it.
Very professional stuff, clean rooms, everything great.
We stayed at JJ's hostel for 5 days and enjoyed it very much. The room was simple, but super clean and the staff was very friendly. Their breakfast is also super good, we especially enjoyed the fresh fruit and smoothies. Another bonus point is the tab with filtered water in the small kitchen on the first floor where you can refill your water bottles.
El alojamiento e instalaciones estuvieron bastante bien
Incentivar la parte social en zonas comunes, faltaba esa esencia de socializar
Amazing hostel - I was in an 8 bed female dorm and the room was big, spacious and very clean. We had 2 showers and 1 toilet. The aircon was cold which was good. The pool was clean and refreshing. Hostel is in good location from shops and restaurants. The staff are very friendly. Probably the best hostel I’ve stayed in Sri Lanka would recommend.
Had a great time staying at this hostel in Mirissa. The location was spot on, and everything was well organized and hassle-free. The rooms were spacious and really comfortable, with a nice overall vibe, definitely a place I’d come back to.
Pool is lovely! We stayed in a private room and our room even got cleaned after a couple of nights. You don’t always get that in a hostel. Location is great, just a short walk to the centre.
It is not really a social hostel, I think if you travel solo you have to try a bit harder to meet people
- Supercomfortable beds with curtains, reading lamp, a small shelf and power sockets - Clean bathroom with two showers and doublesink - Lovely pool area & rooftop with pool table, games and books - Overall very safe, clean and comfortable
- Only a few daytime activities organized by the hostel so maybe not the most social option
Emplacement top et jolie piscine. Chambre spacieuse et personnel très gentil, qui a même préparé un petit-déjeuner à emporter car nous n’étions pas à l’heure du service.
Petit bémol : il y a eu un problème d’électricité la nuit, ce qui a fait biper la clim à de multiples reprises… réveil improvisé à 5h du matin 😅.
Use of pool area and facilities generally.
The power cut during the night and there was no backup power, meaning a very poor night's sleep without AC or fan..
很好
Actually my favorite hostel so far in Sri Lanka. Loved it here.
Lovely host, comfortable bed, clean bedroom. Piping hot water too - the best shower I’ve had in Sri Lanka. Breakfast was generous. I extended my stay because I loved it so much!
Nothing!
Nous avons réservé une chambre seule Lit Queen-size avec clim., vue sur le jardin. La chambre était bien, propre et le lit confortable. Le déjeuner compris était bon. Le café à volonté mais pas de jus ou des fruits pour accompagner le tout. Vous devrez payer un supplément si vous en voulez. Personnel gentil et accueillant. Pas très loin de la plage, vous n’avez pas besoin de prendre un tuk-tuk pour vous y rendre. Plusieurs restaurants à proximité.
Pas de bouteille d’eau dans la chambre.
Hostel au top très bien placé proche de la plage et du centre de Mirissa ! Piscine et jardin très sympa !
The vibe was dead , no music
Prachtige hostel. Wij hadden een 2 persoonskamer met uitzicht op de tuin en zwembad. Onze dochters sliepen in de vrouwen dorm . Alles netjes in orde en goede bedden. Het ligt vlak bij het centrum en de zee. S Nachts heerlijk rustig. We hebben goed kunnen slapen. Een aanrader!
Great sized rooms and having 2 showers and a seperate toilet made it very easy to get ready. Pool was lovely and the offer of yoga was a nice touch. The activities could be more organised to help improve the social aspect of the hostel as its got great potential
The whatsap geoup chat activities dont align with what actually is done which meant I missed out on snorkling. This could be updated to help further confusion
La piscine Les jeux de loisirs La cuisine partagée Le petit déjeuner La disponibilité du personnel La propreté des espaces communs Eau chaude Eau de consommation filtrée Les chats La proximité avec la faune
Les moustiques ne permettant pas toujours de profiter des espaces extérieurs La literie en particulier les oreillers
Very comfortable and clean hostel!
Wasn't super social when I was there but great for relaxing, also alot of mosquitoes
The outdoor area, the yoga shala, the rooftop terasse and the spacious dorm room. They even changed the towels and sheets after the second night.
Breakfast was a bit below my expectations. Some fruits to it would have been great.
Geweldige locatie. Mooie ruime en schone kamer. Lieve mensen, alles was perfect geregeld. Heerlijke yoga in prachtige tuin met zwembad. Een oase in het drukke Mirissa. Aanrader!
Location is really good, just outside enough to not have the full noise of the street but not far away. Rooftop and hangout area was nice even though it was not as social as I thought it would be. Rooms are nice with two showers inside. Enough space for all the luggage.
The private room is big, with many sockets, mosquito net, a desk, a big renovated bathroom with free toiletries. Everything is perfect (I reviewed the hostel in detail in my dorm-review).
Nothing
This is one of the best hostel I have ever stayed at (and I have stayed in MANY of them). It's a hostel with real attention to detail, to make sure that you feel good and comfortable and the facilities it provides are so many for the price you pay. I stayed 2 nights in a dorm and 2 nights in the private room. The female dorm was really clean (as whole hostel) , has an attached toilet and 2 attached showers. Every bed comes with curtain, socket, lamp. Very spacious room. Very nice people in the dorm. The whole hostel is very clean, there is filtered tap water for free, a beautiful pool, a yoga place which you can use for yourself, a rooftop. Good wifi. (The location is in a narrow dark street but its very close to the central street and walking distance to the beach so for me it was positive). Good price. Very friendly and calm people who work there. Everything is perfect.
That I had to leave.
I stayed at this hostel for four days and loved it. It’s a very new place, extremely clean, and well maintained. The dorms are spacious, the bathrooms are spotless, and the facilities are great, including a pool and chill-out areas. The staff is very friendly, breakfast is good, and the location is perfect—just two minutes from the main street. Highly recommended. Me alojé cuatro días en este hostel y fue una experiencia excelente. Es un lugar muy nuevo, todo está muy limpio y bien cuidado. Los dormitorios son amplios, los baños impecables y las instalaciones geniales, con piscina y zonas para relajarse. El personal es muy amable, el desayuno está muy bien y la ubicación es perfecta, a solo dos minutos de la calle principal. Muy recomendable.
The pool was lovely! Well worth it for that alone The staff were all really nice and everything was fine. I didn't eat there but it was nice to have the option. The drinks were fairly reasonably priced there. Super close to a supermarket, ATM, and not far from the beach. Hey Mama and the Timber Cafe were great restaurants nearby that I went to often whilst there.
The curtain for the bed didn't go all the way round the bed unfortunately. But that's nit picky.
Very good property with a lovely pool and good restaurant. Professionally managed.
The volunteer activities could be done better.
Clean, modern, facilities amazing, felt really comfortable. One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in.
the pool table and rooftop area, kitchen and pool are all excellent, the dorms are well equipped and the locker is a good size
Everything, good airco nice rooms. Nice pool. Sweet staff
Nothing
It was clean and the atmosphere was perfect for solo traveling
Breakfast was good Rooms were very comfy and clean Bathroom clean and amazing shower Everything was perfect
Exquisite pool area, really divine, even a space to do yoga. There are many places to hang out on couches or hammocks, it's really lovely. The kitchen has fridges and filtered water. The reception guy was extremely helpful to me, very much appreciated.
