The hosts looked after is well. The room was sufficient and very clean. The AC and fan worked well together. The location is slightly out the way but the local bus drops you at Jaffna junction which is not far. Hired bikes there and explored the area.

Nice, clean room and bathroom. Hot water and AC. Family was welcoming and helpful. Did the safari through the owner. Just be wary of hidden costs. Nothing offered is free (breakfast, dinner, tea, water, bikes etc.) We didn’t know this as we weren’t told beforehand so had a surprising final bill. Other than this, our stay was really lovely!
