"The hotel is good. The location is in the center.
Huge rooms. There is a kitchen, everything works.
The staff is responsive. There were problems with the sink, they solved it right away.
The hotel has a swimming pool with sun loungers.
The sea is 10 meters away. But I do not recommend swimming there, firstly, the sea is dirty, secondly, it is very dangerous. This is not a beach for swimming. But there is a beautiful view from the room to this beach.
The neighboring building is a Catholic church. They hold mass twice a day, early in the morning and in the evening at 5. They sing into a microphone, in principle with a beautiful voice, but in any case it looks like karaoke. Then the priest reads a sermon to the parishioners and all this is also into the microphone. I get up early, so this karaoke did not bother me in the morning. Be prepared and informed if anything.
Another minus is that small ants appear in the room literally a second after you forget food or drop even a crumb. In general, do not leave food outside the refrigerator and clean up after yourself after eating. But in any case, cleaning is done every day or on request, they quickly deal with these ants. They are not offensive, just unpleasant.
The town of Negombo itself is nothing special, there is nothing to do there except spend a few days after arrival or before departure. There is nothing to see in this town at all. At all. But there are many restaurants with delicious seafood. My recommendations for price and quality are Jude Restaurant. It is about 20 minutes' walk from the hotel.
The hotel itself does not provide meals, there is no cafe or anything like that."
