Great place to stay close to the beach and shopping strip. Staff are happy to answer any questions. Wifi is in the main section of the hostel so try and get a room there! They also have laundry facilities available which is very helpful! Overall I'd recommend Sachal Mir's as a great hostel option in Negombo!! :)

We had booked one night at this place with arrival time at 23.00 but our plane got delayed so instead we arrived 00.30. The hostel was by that time locked and no one opened the gate, nor answered the phone when we tried to call so we had to stay at another hotel. The next day we went to Sachal Mir's and complained and after some discussions the owner paid us the difference between the two hotels. Look out for late arrival, the 24-hour reception is only there if you know that you are late :)

Very nice staff, and nice atmosphere, and the breakfast is tasty. The location is close to the beach, although a little bit hard for the night taxi driver from the airport. Recommended.

Made me feel like I had a second home in Sri Lanka along with a second family. Allowed me to leave the bulk of my luggage there while I traveled around. Nice breakfast of eggs toast and fresh fruit. Very accommodating. Staff is super knowledgeable and super helpful. I was actually a bit melancholy to leave. Good location in Negombo.
