My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were much better than expected, with a more comfortable bed and a quieter environment, but cleanliness was an issue with black spots on the sheets and poorly maintained showers. Despite being the smallest room in the hotel, it came with unwelcome surprises like a dead fly, ant, and someone else's hair on the pillow.

The hotel is conveniently located near the railway station, making it convenient for travelers who prefer train transportation. The service was very efficient and accommodating, ensuring all our needs were met promptly. The dining experience offered a variety of traditional Jaffna dishes, although some may find the foreign palate options limited. The rooms, particularly in the old wing, were quite spacious but could benefit from upgrades to improve comfort levels.

The location is convenient, central, and yet tucked away from noise. The dining options are varied and delightful, but the check-out experience could be smoother. Overall, a great value for money.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with lovely en-suite showers, perfect after a day out in the sun. While the maintenance could be improved, the room size was impressive. The service was very friendly and obliging, particularly at the restaurant. The location is central and convenient, within walking distance of Jaffna railway station. The dining experience was delightful, especially with Indian food options available. The hotel lacks some cleanliness but makes up for it with its warm and effective service.
