Reviews for Kandy City Monkey
Review 1:Traveling for almost 7weeks in Sri Lanka and stayed at a lot of places around the country, guarantee.. this palce is the best so far!! It's cheap, the center is not far, the Hostel's tuktuk is cheaper than others, the place have space, garden, big kitchen, social life, and good management. Indrani, and Jayanti work day and night to keep the place clean, organised and welcoming.. and they do it with heart!.. I will miss theme :) Come and you will see!
Review 2:The staff don't talk so good english. They said that it could be difficult when I first wanted to use the kitchen to make my own food, because it wasn't so much gas left. They were also using it by themselves and many of the things in the kitchen was privat. It wasn't a sign that showed me what I could use or not, they just said it when i was looking for stuff.
Review 3:Short way to walk to a food store. You can also walk to the city.
Review 4:Good location: not far from the city centre, but quite and beautiful area Very nice place with good bathroom and comfortable hold Good wifi Good breakfast Realy cheap
Review 5:The hostess (Indrani aunty) was the kindest and most resourceful person. Extremely friendly and gave us our own room even though we had booked a 6 bed dorm just because it was free. Clean, spacious place, great location. No complaints!
Review 6:There were no bikes, had to pay more because of breakfast even though on booking.com it said it was included in the price. Caretaker keeps bothering you about taking a tuk tuk (I get it, your husband has a tuk tuk, no need to push it on us). No traveller atmosphere.
Review 7:Neighbourhood was okay.
Review 8:The staff is very much friendly...and always happy to help you out with anything. i been they about 4 time and onece they was housefull and the lady let us stay with breakfast for a reasonable price and it was really nice of her. The wifi connection is good and stayble. The location is good and nice residental area..very close to a big supermarket and an ATM. Hope to go back soon.
Review 9:The hostel did not provide quilt or blanket, it would be cold in the night since Kandy is in mountain area. I got a cold there...
Review 10:Almost everything is perfect, this hostel provided more than I expected. Enough space in the room and the public area. There's also a lovely green behind the house where you can hang your clothes or just have fun there. Breakfast included bread&butter, pineapple and banana, black tea and coffee are also available.
Review 11:After a 9 hour bus drive, the lady working in the hostel demanded that I would pay immediately at arrival. After telling here that I would go to the ATM in the morning since it was dark outside already, she got mad. So I went in the dark and got a very bad experience with a local man. All shaken up I got back in the hostel and they did not care. At ALL. Horrible way to treat your guests. All they care about is money. After every waterbottle you get, they want to see the money within the next minute. Also the lady came in a few times at night waking me up to ask what beds were free for new guests. Say what? Also bad wifi.
Review 12:Nice atmosphere with other backpackers. The older lady working there was really nice.
Review 13:Cold shower - no hot water from any of the taps
Review 14:The woman who runs this place is SO nice and helpful! Great chilled vibe about the place. No aircon but not needed as rooms have fans that keep the rooms plenty cool enough Free breakfast included in price (toast, jam, fruit, boiled egg, tea) Good & cheap laundry service Comfortable bunk beds with mosquito nets The rickshaws don't have a meter like they do in Colombo, so you must make sure to agree a price before. From the hostel to town only ever cost us 200 RUP Good wifi!
Review 15:The shower and bathroom which I shared with 8 other people was not as clean, hower for Sri Lanka it was normal standards
Review 16:Nice atmosphere, very friendly and helpful lady runs the place. She's the best. Meeting people here is really easy and I found a lot like minded people sharing their stories about Sri Lanka.
Review 17:The hostel is located in a beautiful place surrounded by hills. The staff is very helpful and they make their best to make u feel at home. I really recommend this hostel for any backpacker looking for a relaxing stay in Kandy.
