    Location: the hotel was just next door to restaurants, ships and the lighthouse, the center of fort galle and a train station. We ordered lunch at Coconut Sambol, located a short way from the venue. The food was local and we enjoyed the variety.

    The hotel had a friendly and welcoming staff who offered us drinks upon arrival and tea and cookies when we left, which was a nice gesture. the location of the hotel was excellent for exploring the fort. It was conveniently located near the main entrance and a short walk from the train station. the rooms were basic but clean, providing us with a comfortable stay.

    That breakfast was not included, but this was not a major issue. the walls were quite thin, so we could hear noises from the neighbors, particularly a baby crying at night.
