Creo que ha sido uno de los mejores hostales en los que he estado! El personal es muy amable y colaborador, te dan rides en el tuk tuk incluidos alredor de la zona, me ayudaron a saber quΓ© bus debo tomar para mi siguiente parada y me prestaron un adaptador para el cargador. La habitaciΓ³n estuvo muy limpia y con AC, la zona del jardΓ­n es muy tranquila y durante la noche pude trabajar allΓ­ sin problema, ya que tambiΓ©n es un hostel muy tranquilo.

Thank you for hosting us at Sigiri Serenity! The staff were so helpful and gave us lots of lifts! There were lots of flies when we were eating breakfast but other than that the hostel was very clean!
