Staff helpful and friendly. Bed comfortable. Breakfast very nice. View from outside of room. Met nice people staying there. Walkable to train station, shops/restaurants, and Little Adam's Peak.
Steep road so difficult to park car plus steep pathway to walk up. Only one bathroom and one shower room. Have to walk down steps to get to them.

This place is perfect for me in Ella for Backpackers and this is why : you are near the city center but just out to enjoy calm. The place to sleep is so cuit. The breakfast are so great. The owners are so kind. It's really clean. You just feel safe here. Quality/ price : probably the best you'll find in this area.
