Good sanitary facilities.

Some of the reviews on Google are awful but I found my experience to be fine. I was the only person staying and I never really enjoy this when I'm traveling alone, but the host was nice and accommodating and drove me into town on the back of his bike for dinner for no charge. Location-wise it wasn't ideal for me, although you can hire bicycles from the guesthouse for 800LKR/day, and you can get around by bike pretty easily. I found the location too isolated for a solo traveller, and when I cycled back after sunset about ten dogs chased me down a dark path which was a little unnerving. You are basically sleeping right out in the jungle and can hear all the jungle sounds, this may be a positive or a negative depending on what you like! I wore earplugs but before I put them in I could definitely hear lots of animal sounds and scratching. If you had your own transport this might be quite an ideal location. The host also has a tuktuk, he took me to my next destination in this and charged about 20% more than Pickme (after bartering the price down). Well located to access the temples and historical sites, as well as close to the lake for sunset, just a bit isolated for me! Shared bathroom was fine, hot shower was great, no complaints. Room had a fan and a mosquito net.
