Overall, my stay was quite enjoyable. The rooms were pretty comfortable and had some nice features, though they did tend to get noisy early in the morning. The service was top-notch, as the staff were proactive in arranging transportation and presented different breakfast options every day. The location was peaceful but slightly far from town, making for a nice escape from the hustle and bustle of Kandy. I feel it was a good value for the price, even if there were a few minor drawbacks.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms, though clean and holding some nice modern features, felt a bit small and needed some fresh paint. The service was a bit hit-or-miss; while they cooked an excellent prawn curry, there were issues with cleanliness. The location offers some lovely scenery and peace away from the buzz of Kandy, but it was quite a trek to get to the center. Overall, the value for money wasn’t great, given these drawbacks.
