Isolée au fond d une toute petite impasse cette guesthouse est protégée des bruits de la rue. Accueil souriante de la gérante un bébé dans les bras qui pleurera toute la nuit événement isolé évidemment. Première nuit dans la chambre du RdC sans fenêtre ou il a fallu réclamer la clim pourtant comprise dans ma réservation, plutôt bruyante donc. Deuxième nuit a l étage dans un petite chambre avec balcon plus calme, mais sans rideaux occultants. J ai un gros doute sur le fait que les draps aient été changés après le départ des précédents clients et le ménage vu en live plutôt expéditif. Les articles de toilette sont inexistant. Personne pour préparer les petits dej donc ces derniers sont servis dans un hôtel à 500 m du même proprio semble t il. Mise a part la localisation ultra centrale du fort, cet hôtel convient pour 1 nuit sans être exigeant. ##### Grégoire ### 8/10 Good #### Jean-Baptiste Dec 5, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very good value for money in Galle Fort Excellent location (right inside Galle Fort) and value for money. The owners were really welcoming, nice and helpful. B&B located in a smaller street of the Fort, thus providing calm. Room with a large bed, A/C, mosquito net and small balcony. We definitely recommend it! We got our breakfast in another hostel managed by the owners. ##### Jean-Baptiste ### 8/10 Good #### Scoop, USA Jun 17, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fairly secret, not really a palace. The place is right near the south end of the Fort area in Galle. Excellent location. Easy to find if you are on the right street; you just look for the sign and go down the long alley. Our room was a larger room and a smaller room connected, with a double bed in the larger room and a twin bed in the smaller room. The larger room was only slightly larger than the double bed! ##### Scoop ### 4/10 Poor #### Hua Jun 13, 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### room not clean The pillows are very smelly, blanket also not really clean. Water pressure very low so that sometimes cannot turn on the heater. I got a cold shower. ##### Hua ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 12, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels near Applewood Golf Course](https://www.expedia.ca/Applewood-Golf-Course-Hotels.0-l553248621565294597-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Cheap Hotels in Kinnakeet Shores](https://www.expedia.ca/Kinnakeet-Shores-Avon-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-n553248635976471373-0-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [5 Star Hotels in St. John's](https://www.expedia.ca/5Star-St-Johns-Hotels.s50-0-d181832.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Casino Hotels in Golden Triangle](https://www.expedia.ca/Golden-Triangle-Ottawa-Hotels-Casino-Hotel.0-n6281393-0-tCasinoHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [KK Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Unawatuna-Hotels-KK-Beach.h15537316.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Indigo Villa](https://www.expedia.ca/Unawatuna-Hotels-Royal-Indigo-Villa.h28419281.Hotel-Information) > > [Ranches Castlegar](https://www.expedia.ca/Castlegar-Ranches.d6058314-aaRanches.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Pet-friendly Hotels in Bloomfield](https://www.expedia.ca/Bloomfield-Hotels-Pet-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d6157062-tPetfriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Adults Only Resorts & Hotels in Agrigento](https://www.expedia.ca/Agrigento-Hotels-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-0-d4920-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Can Liret](https://www.expedia.ca/Palafrugell-Hotels-Hotel-Can-Liret.h37913403.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with smoking rooms in Ottawa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Hotels-With-Smoking-Rooms.0-0-d178296-tHotelswithsmokingrooms.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Aurelia](https://www.expedia.ca/Aldingen-Hotels-Hotel-Aurelia.h15660559.Hotel-Information) > > [Old Bakery Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Block-Island-Hotels-Old-Bakery-Inn.h102342551.Hotel-Information) > > [Oceanfront Hotels in Manalapan](https://www.expedia.ca/Manalapan-Hotels-Oceanfront-Hotels.0-0-d56090-tOceanfrontHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Resol Trinity Hakata](https://www.expedia.ca/Fukuoka-Hotels-Hotel-Resol-Trinity-Hakata.h4562979.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels.d4057.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) to Penticton (YYF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/yyf/edmonton-to-penticton) > > [Flights from Frederick (FDK) to St. John's (YYT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fdk/yyt/frederick-to-st-johns) > > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to Trinidad (TDD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/tdd/vancouver-to-trinidad) > > [Flights from Adelaide (ADL) to Mexico City (MEX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/adl/mex/adelaide-to-mexico-city) ### Cars ### Activities > [Things to do in Paris](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Paris.d179898.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Kanata Centrum Shopping Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Kanata-Centrum-Shopping-Centre-Kanata.d553248621562269604.Vacation-Attraction) ### General
