"Pros: Where do I begin? If you are reading this STOP LOOKING and BOOK RIGHT NOW!!! This is not just a hostel, it’s a live-changing experience!!!
Jerry welcomed me like a long-lost friend and made me feel like royalty of Sigiriya. Jerry talks a lot – I mean A LOT – but everything is pure gold. He knows EVERYTHING and he can organize ANYTHING. Safaris? Done. Lakes? Done. Spiritual awakenings? Probably!
Cons: The hostel was super clean, but do bring a mosquito spray – the little buggers are hungry! No fan in the room, so it got a bit spicy at night. But honestly, who cares! Oh and the WiFi? Basically non-existent. But why would you need that? Jerry is there for you and has SO MANY IDEAS what to do. I‘m sending all my friends here!!" ~Bernhard
"Pros: Slightly out of town meant it was quieter and more relaxed than some of the other accommodation options
Free bicycles were really helpful to allow us to explore the area and get into town
Cons: Limited food options - we had breakfast one day but dinner isn't an option so you have to go out for it (but we were warned not to walk or cycle after dark because of the risk of wildlife).
The host kept insisting on me giving a 10* review "8 or 9 is no use, it has to be 10". This was uncomfortable and awkward. This place is nice enough but is not a 10* place." ~Louis
