I liked everything about this hostel! It is the perfect hostel to start or/and end your trip. * The staff is superfriendly and willing to help. The owner wants you to have a good time and is always trying to improve. * The rooms are clean, spacious and look beautiful. Because of the way it is build, you have a lot of privacy. * The bathroom and toilet are new and clean. There is hot water! * The location is perfect. Close to the beach and road with shops and restaurants. But the surrounded area is quiet and it has a nice garden. * The pool and SeaHorse Hotel and Spa. * The restaurant Tuk Tuk Wine and Dine serves amazing food and has live music 5 days a week. I can really recommend you to go. Enjoy 😀

Lakshan was very friendly and welcoming. He was very accommodating and helpful for airport transit and a later check out. It was a really good location, close to the airport and food places, and a quick tuk tuk into the city to explore.

It's close to the airport and right across from a restaurant that's open pretty late. It's a great spot if you need a place to stay before an early morning flight or right after one. It's an eight room bed setup (no bunk beds). The owner is really nice. He'll help you 24/7 with directions or even organize a Tuk Tuk ride to the airport if needed. The beds have clean linen, a lamp, a towel and a socket. The room has AC so that's a win.

All hostels in Negombo

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

I stayed here on my last day in Sri Lanka to leave for the airport.The rooms are very clean and good. All basic toiletries were available and it was all you need on your transit days.The host was very kind n friendly, helped with early morning tuk tuk for 1500.He also gave good suggestions for eateries nearby which were super convenient and budget friendly.I highly recommend this place 🙂..Airport is just 15 min away and I was traveling solo n felt safe n comfortable here.
