Extended my stay there twice because it’s just a lovely place: the bed is big and comfy, the room just big enough and super clean (I got it cleaned again after 3 days…), the shared kitchen is also super practically and it is a really calm and peaceful location but you can easily walk to the beach etc. Other than that, the host family is the best, super friendly and helpful! Thanks for the lovely, see u soon!

Мы жили тут 1,5 месяца и за все время не возникло никаких проблем — комнаты чистые, светлые, шумоизолированные, всё в рабочем состоянии, до пляжа идти 1 минуту. Есть рабочая зона, опция завтраков и обменный пункт. По цене все оптимально и приятно

Reviewed By Kouros s

Nice airconditioned room, beautiful bathroom, and nice clean bed. The staff is amazing and super helpful. We passed the owner while on our way out, and he gave us some handpicked guavas, and showed us a little birdsnest located in a bush outside the manor with newly hatched babybitds. While we stayed there, the little birdies growed bigger, every day, which was kinda amazing to witness. The owner have also helped us with booking cheap rides and with our laundry. The place is super close to the beach, and have good value for the price.

Era Guest House

Прожили здесь три недели. + и - подробно

Reviewed By OKsanaRush

Я бы хотела поставить этому месту оценку 3,5 ( по меркам Шри-ланки). Плюсы: + : 2-3 мин. до пляжа и удобное расположение относительно других популярных мест Уны. + Когда у нас сломались стулья, холодильник 2 раза, закончился газ, то хозяева все оперативно решили. Так же нам принесли "приветственные" мыло, 1 туалетную бумагу, кокосы и блинчики по приезду, было приятно. На время выключения света выдали свечи. + Для удобства нам натянули верёвку для сушки белья, принесли дополнительные вешалки, таз для стирки. + На месте мы сняли гораздо дешевле, чем на букинге. + Очень просторная квартирка, есть все необходимое, 2 душа, один с бойлером. + Удобно устроено освещение, есть много вариантов светового режима в разных местах. + Большой балкон на котором мы проводили много времени. Наблюдали с него каждый день обезьян, павлинов, белок + Внизу магазин, в котором можно купить самое необходимое и хозяева ночуют внизу в домике, так что вас никто не обнесет. Есть шкафчик с ключом в комнате, где мы спокойно оставляли деньги. Минусы: - очень, очень шумное место с окнами на дорогу. Закрытые окна никак не подавляют шум. Приходилось спать в берушах. Все эти тук-туки с пробитыми глушителями, кажется, что едут прям по комнате. В соседнем дворе живёт большая стая собак. Днём они спят, а ночью выбегают на дорогу и орут. -Мы сняли Гест на месяц и за это время у нас убрались и поменяли полотенца/ постельное только 1 раз! Спустя 7 дней проживания. Потом мы пытались договориться об уборке. Хозяин спрашивал один раз. Мы согласовали с ним, ушли на весь день на пляж, оставили ключи, но никто почему-то не убирался и больше не спрашивал. Тратить свой отпуск на требования уборки не хотелось и мы забили. Если вы интроверт и не готовы требовать, объяснять, общаться, то вам точно не сюда. -тк балкон выходит на дорогу, то очень пыльно. Через три недели уже было неприятно спать в этом месте. Белый балдахин на кровать был изначально грязный с пятнами, а через 3 недели стал ещё и с плотным серым налетом пыли. - невыносимо жарко из-за неправильного строения крыши, вентиляторы здесь не спасают. На кухне нормальная температура, а в комнате как в печке. - на Шри-ланке максимальные цены указаны уже изготовителем на товарах. Продавать выше этой цены незаконно. Мы знали это изначально, но первое время делали покупки в магазине внизу и не считали. И лишь через неделю поняли, что если не смотреть и не считать самому при них, то женская половина работников ( хозяйка и ,наверное, ее мама) накидывает к вашей покупке дополнительно 10-15% сверху. Мелочь, но неприятно, когда тебя обманывают. Мужчины же продают по ценам на упаковке. Мы бронировали на месяц, но уехали через 3 недели. А лучше бы уехали через 2. Успели все посмотреть за это время, поездить по побережью и стало скучно в Уне. Уехали в центр. Я всё хотела сделать фото квартирки, когда у нас уберутся, но не представилась возможность. Поэтому все фотки, которые у меня есть такие. Лишь балкон успела сфотографировать по приезду.

Out Of Rupees Hostel

Best place to stay in Unawatuna

Reviewed By Melsim10

The owner was always available to help and he gave us good tips about the places to visit. We could text him whenever there was a problem or if we had a question about anything. The free breakfast was really good and filling. The room is clean and the bed really comfortable. Its not located on the main road so its a bit isolated from the main attractions but in exchange very calm and peaceful. To get to the beach its a few minutes walk so we rented a scooter with the hostel to go around, which i recommend. We also did a cooking class with 4 other guests at the owner's house with his lovely family. The food was amazing and we had a great time talking and eating all together. Really worth the stay, we really recommend.

Loved it

Reviewed By AMohsen

Mainly loved the idea of taking bicycles from the hostel and traveling with them to the beach and then to Galle where it was unforgettable experience as we were large group took 11 bicycles and had difficult ride through crowded streets with heavy rains. Generally, it is clean, has good Wifi, good breakfast, comfortable, sitting area below. The advantage is the bicycles idea, and the disadvantage is mutual large bath room for men and ladies.
