Backpack Lanka

Fabulous

✓ Excellent location, everything is close to the hostel. Staff was very friendly, room was nice but looked a bit old

✗ I was scared of ravens at night, they made sound 😂

Exceptional

✓ Thank you for the good reception and smile. it was very clean and safe. the AC was nice with the hot temperature. only to recommend.

✗ nothing. was super for an hostel.

Bad

✗ "I booked a bed on Monday and reached the place on Tuesday night from the airport. The person at the reception said they didn't have any space to accommodate me, even though they confirmed my stay. He said the amount was not charged and asked me to find another room. However, the hotel charged me, and I am not getting any response. Therefore, I recommend avoiding them.

was a perfect trip….

✓ The property located in a perfect spot also, this place is perfectly adequate for all my needs!!!

✗ nothing much to say simply awesome 👏

I traveled for work purposes. it was more comfortable for me to travel from this place as it's located in the center

✓ The place was perfectly adequate for my needs. very clean and exquisite 👍🏽

✗ Nothing to say about Dislikes!!

Worst stay

✓ Nothing. the hostel was empty, no backpackers and I understand why. I traveled different country, did lots of hostels and that was the worst I have been to.

✗ first the room ceiling, the aircon and walls were with moisture on it, there was a dead cockroach inside the toilet. I am easy so I thought that would be ok, it’s not always easy to keep an hostel perfectly clean but seemed to be alright to live here. But the main problem was that in my bed, (last floor) were little ants that I did not see at first and that were biting me as soon as I went in the bed, making me very itchy. I had no choice but to stay as my flight arrived at 1am. When I discovered that, no one to be found. In the morning wanting to canceled the week that I had paid in advance, they said to me that it was impossible and that they would not proceed to a refund but that I was welcome to stay. Dirty is another word that goes perfectly with this hostel. The kitchen was unusable, dust, moisture on the kitchen stuff, dead cockroach on the cupboards and very messy with dirty pots everywhere. At the end had to not sleep for one night, pay one week of rent where I did not stay, and spend my time in a empty dirty place. I only stayed 7hours there but that was way enough to not be willing to stay.

Much satisfied

✓ Awesome and very friendly service!!! Thank you so much

Bad

✓ Nothing everything was bad

✗ Pathetic hostel. This is not backpackers hostel. All daily job workers stay in this.. so if you are traveller you definitely not like it
