An absolute no.

Dreadful. Left after less than two hours; the only positive aspect was that the hote allowed me to cancel without charging me. Loud, not clean, poor quality, dirty bedding. Avoid.

Excellent place for the price

The hotel is right next to Jaffna railway station and close to Jaffna town. The staff were very friendly and nice. The breakfast buffet have the best choices of regional tradional foods and also western breakfast choices. I would say the best breakfast buffet i have had through out my world travel so far. i will definitely stay hear again. They need to change the bed sheets they look old although they were clean. Other than than no complains at all.

Very convenient location and some good facilities

The bedrooms need some smartening up but the outdoor eating arrangements are very pleasant and so is the pool. A very good traditional Sri Lankan breakfast.

It would have been better if the staff can communicate in English, as not all international visitors know Tamil.
