Kavee Transit Hotel

It's the same as my previous review. Toilet paper was added in the bathroom this time. Host was really nice and friendly.

I didn't use the kitchen the first time I was there. This time I used it and it lacks maintenance. That's why the score is lower this time. A shower curtain is recommended in the bathroom so the entire floor doesn't get wet. There is already a shower curtain bar.

Das Zimmer war super sauber und die Badausstattung modern. Der Inhaber war sehr hilfsbereit und hat uns bei unseren frühen Transfer zum Flughafen sehr unterstützt.

Flughafen Nähe.

The owner was friendly and welcoming. He also made our breakfast. And it was delicious. He met us at the airport and brought a shuttle. The room was clean and the wifi worked well. The shower had warm water but it didn't get very hot. Soap and shampoo were provided along with drinking water.

There was no toilet paper.

Nah am Flughafen mit verfügbarem Transfer Ruhig Klimaanlage vorhanden

Etwas versteckt abseits der Straße Frühstück simpel

Warm welcome

I stayed at Kavee Transit during my time in Sri Lanka and had a really good experience. The host was very responsive over text and always willing to help with anything I needed, which made everything feel easy from the start. The place itself was clean and well kept. There’s a small common area outside and a balcony that’s actually a really nice space to relax, especially after travelling. It’s also very close to the airport, which made it super convenient for my stay. They also provided me with water when they arrived they are very kind hosts. They also provided a lovely breakfast, which was a nice touch. As a solo traveller, I felt safe and comfortable the whole time. I would definitely recommend staying here.

All good

La comodidad de la cama

Todo estaba bien

Stanza accogliente

Vicino all’aeroporto, comodo

Mosquito net

Nothing

Очень вежливый хозяин, отмосфера домашняя, чисто, аккуратно, отлично

Всё отлично

Ghestouse très accueillante avec son hôte très gentil. Située à 10mn de l aéroport et taxi nous sommes arrivés vers 23h et il nous a accueilli avec le sourire. La chambre est simple mais il y a tout ce qu il faut. Et le matin le petit déjeuner est agréable. Merci ppur votre accueil

Super nah am Flughafen, die Familie, die das Hotel betreibt, ist ausnahmslos hilfsbereit und freundlich! Es gibt auch eine warme Dusche.

We had a lovely experience staying at Kavee Transit hotel. It’s hosted by a lovely family who make sure we sleep and eat well, what more can you ask for in a different country. Completely “home away from home experience”. Thank you so so much Kavindu and family :) best transit hotel one can book!

There’s nothing that I didn’t like about the property. Everything is great. Value for money.

La struttura è perfetta per chi arriva, come noi, tardi dall’aeroporto e necessita di una soluzione per dormire. L’host è stato davvero cordiale, è venuto a prenderci fino all’aeroporto e ci ha indicato dove poter cenare la sera stessa. Colazione buonissima !!!

Das Bett war bequem und mit einem Moskitonetz ausgestattet. Die Klimaanlage hat funktioniert und das Personal war sehr nett.

Das Zimmer ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen und eng. Das Bad war eher dreckig und sah aus, als wäre es nur mit einem Wasserschlauch abgespritzt worden.

Really kind host , gave us very helpful information for our onward travel , picked us up from the airport. Good room for the price

Buen alojamiento para pasar la noche cuando llegas tardes al aeropuerto. Nosotras llegamos a las 3 de la mañana, y tuvimos muy buena acogida

Great host with most comfortable and clean room.

Breakfast not provided which is included .

It was a good experience.

Ubicación perfecta cerca del aeropuerto y personal muy amable

Clean, comfy, good AC and close to the airport. The staff were excellent - organsied airport pick up, offered us breakfast and even drove us to Sigiriya the next morning for a good price.

Great location - The staff was helpful and nice. Having the A/C in the room is a plus and the it was clean. The owner offered to take us at 4.30am to the airport with his car ( a but pricey though).

The noise level unfortunately quite loud after 10pm downstairs making it hard to sleep especially when you have to be up at 4am - There were lots of ants on the wall.

Just what we needed for a night after arriving at Negombo Airport. Staff very friendly, also doubled up as our taxi driver for our next destination. Room very basic but really OK for a transit night. Also got served a simple complimentary breakfast

Nothing, just don't expect luxury

La comodidad de las camas, la limpieza, la atención del anfitrión. También, su cercanía al aeropuerto y que nos permitió entrar a las 6 am. El desayuno estaba muy rico.

Se oían un poco los aviones ir y venir

Very friendly. Extremely helpful. Lovely breakfast.

Nothing

Clean and comfortable. Very friendly. Lovely breakfast and close to the airport.

Nothing

Convenient location for the airport. Sorted a taxi for us from the airport and to pinawala the next day. Breakfast was also sorted for us which was nice.

A little dated and could be cleaner.

Very nice hotel for a quick stop after landing late at night:)

Lovely staff. Very clean and close to the airport. The owner allowed us to check out later and gave us a life to the airport! Great stay!

Nothing

Friendly greeting and service. Very comfortable bed. As a solo female traveller I felt safe. I had also arranged airport transfers through the hotel at additional cost and was glad I did as hotel is off the main road down narrow streets and I think I would have feared for my safety if in an Uber or PickMe ride late at night. Property is gated and has only a small sign at front. Breakfast was included in rate and consisted of 4 x toast, small omelette, two bananas and coffee/water. For the price I considered my stay to be excellent value.

Not so much what I didn't like but things to note. It's a wet bathroom (shower with no glass or curtain) so everything gets wet (but dries overnight). Only shampoo and body wash is provided. Toilet paper feels like rough paper towel. The bath towel was almost threadbare. I arrived with only basics as I was in transit so my suitcase was checked through to next destination. Fortunately I was reasonably prepared.

Most helpful, friendly and accomodating staff! Went above and beyond for me to help me arrange transport for getting around. Very quiet place, great for a good nights rest.

The staff was very nice The place was simple. The price not cheep

Very helpful staff, helped us with catching the public bus to sigiriya! The free breakfast was also great!

The name of this homestay gives the impression of a hotel but it is a small homestay just off the main airport interchange road. The staff were excellent and assisted in getting us shuttle transport to and from the homestay and also into Colombo for dinner. Our room was quite small. The shower was good. Beds were comfortable and the room was air conditioned. The breakfast on the front verandah was great.

Nothing in particular

Kavee was very helpful

Hospitality

Owner & staff both are very friendly & well behaved at all.. My fligt was in late in afternoon but they willingly offered me to stay comfortably without any charges😍 Moreever had a great breakfast too😊 Highly recommended 😇

Great place to stay

Great place to stay

Breakfast was fine. Tucked up in the back streets, friendly staff, good value for money

Bed was comfortable. Room had A/C

Wifi didn’t work even though it has a 10 rating on the reviews

Great stay! Staff were really friendly and the place was nice with good comfy beds. Breakfast at 7am was no problem on our way to the airport.

Shower wasn't amazing but for a one night stay it was completely fine.

I liked staff. Pramosh contacted me thru whatsapp and helped to get to the place since I took public transport from Colombo to Hikkaduwa. Also Pramosh helped to plan my activities and helped me with a bike rental.

It would be great if stuff could clean floor once per couple of days due to the sand

Staff were outstanding and stayed available even though my flight was delayed until 4 in the morning. Very friendly staff, quiet and clean hotel, highly recommend :)

Perfect transit hotel

The personnel was very friendly and helpful. Helped us organize last minute transfer to aiport at 4am after our driver couln't come.

The place need a little clean up as we found a lot of cockroaches in the room (coming from the bathroom) but they moved us to another room emediately which was much appreciated.

Great value for money, really good if you’re transiting, additional bonus for the breakfast that is included in the price and welcome drink upon arrival. Also access to common area and a balcony is a plus.

Ac remote wasn’t working so it was freezing the whole night. The duvet was really thin so it’d be great to have an extra blanket in the room.

Arrival was in middle of night…….plan was to clean up, grab a few hours sleep, have a quick breakfast and head to Galle at 0730. This was achieved seamlessly, thanks to the staff at Kavee. Our expectations were exceeded

The staff was very friendly.

The water pressure was not good. We were hoping to have a hot shower after landing but the water came out from the shower head was like spitting. It was not really flowing. That was a disappointment. Also before we arrived, I messaged the owner about ordering a taxi for the following morning after checking-out as we had a train to catch. However, we waited for a long time for the taxi to show up. Not sure if he had called the service in advance or he just called on the spot. We almost missed our train. That was quite unpleasant.

The staff were very welcoming and the property is just as listed. We stayed one night before a flight on else where. We could walk to the Main Street with lots of restaurants for dinner. The breakfast was provided for us before we had to leave for our flight which was really nice of the property to offer.

The only downside was the Tuk Tuk that was arranged for us to take us to the airport. We were told the price would be 800LKR and were picked up at the requested time in the morning. The whole ride we were harassed by the driver about paying more money and that the price wasn’t fair. We only had 1000LKR in cash left as we were leaving the country on the same day. We gave him this and he wasn’t very pleasant to us about the situation. I think we would have preferred to have arranged our own transport to the airport in the end because the harassment wasn’t worth it. I know this isn’t the hotels fault but it’s worth noting that it might be more peace of mind to book your own airport transfer.

Close to the airport and quiet. Nice and friendly stuff. Perfect for 1 night for transit. Breakfast was included and some water. Breakfast was ok but nothing special.

Mosquitos where horrible but that's more like the issues of a tropical island. So get some protection.

1. Clean and comfortable 2. Delicious breakfast made at your requested time 3. Nice common sitting areas both inside and outside in the garden 4. Easy to get to and from Colombo area using tuk tuk I used this as a one night crash pad between flights and it was perfect.

The staff are very nice and friendly. The hotel is basic but cheap so perfect for what you pay. Ideal for a quick ride to the airport.

The walls are quite thin so you head other people having shower and moving around the corridor.

Great place to stay and very friendly staff .Overall a very good experience will stay again in the same place if I visit srilanka

Close to airport

Shower wasn’t great

The stay was beautiful with such kind hosts! Thanks so much :)

The room was clean, the staff very kind and hapefull

Nice place and friendly staff. Highly recommended 🤘

Kavee is an amazing person, and he was kind enough to organize a cab for our onward trip to yala. Our breakfast was tasty and served on time.

The room and the house are clean. Bed is comfortable. Hot shower works well. Food is delicious and generous in amount. The location is near to the airport but very quiet. Above all, the staff are very friendly and accommodating.

That place are very compatibility The owner & he is son (kavee) very friendly Nice view nice location All in my hand one minute Thanks a lot all hospitality Sure next time definitely we locate your location

Almost everything

There is nothing that I didn't like, perfect 👌 value for the money

Kavee transit hotel is very comfortable for stay, the staffs are very friendly and respectful

The place was great, breakfast was great, the bed comfortable and the owner was the best.

Low water pressure in the shower.

PERFECT,

every thing,really

Close to the airport. Friendly brothers who were very helpful and organised transport to the airport for us for a good price. Great option for the price.

Slightly hard to find on the narrow roads but not a major issue.

・Staffs were excellent!!They are gentle and helpful and frendly. I really appreciate to them. ・The room was simple but cleaned well👌 ・Air conditioning works well and it was comfortable.

・I was little bit annoying a little mosquito but there was a mosquito net above the bed, so it wasn't a problem when I slept. ・There aren't many shops nearby that are open at night, so the parson who arrive at night should have dinner around the airport.

AC couldn't be controlled, no hot water in the evening upon arrival, minimal space in the room.

very good breakfast and nice location. good place for the transit and frendly staff

nothing

It was in a quiet area and the staff was super friendly and helpful.

Overall was a good experience. The owner Kavee was very cooperative and helpful.

friendly staff clean room

required minor improvement in upstairs water supply

Nice location near the airport, breakfast was good. Late check-in is available. AC works well. Great for one night.

Lovely, kind hosts who made us a great breakfast at 6am. Great location near the airport. Room and bathroom were big and had everything we needed. Thank you :0)

Right from the reception, it was all great, the staff exceptionally friendly, helpful, thorough, and the space was adequate and pretty clean. It truly beat my expectations. Kudos Kavee and team.
