My favorite place in Sri Lanka. Kiri, the host, is a beautiful soul and helps you with everything you need. The location is directly on the lake and so peaceful. I extended for a whole week and I wish I could stay longer. I felt so comfortable. The hostel has a kitchen with a lot of stuff to cook, but you can also order food for a fair price. The hostel is perfect to relax and calm down. I would always come back:)

“Lovely staff in a quiet location!”
