This is such a lovely, comfortable place to stay. Jaffna hospitality! Beautiful house and grounds, large, comfortable room. Ravi and Kandiah graciously respond to all requests. We ended up eating not only breakfast at home but most dinners as well. Highly recommend.

We loved the location, with its easy walk to the temple and proximity to town. However, the highlight of our stay was undoubtedly Mr. Haran's exceptional hospitality. It was truly like visiting relatives.

I had a wonderful experience staying here on a recent work trip. The location is incredibly convenient, just a 600-meter walk from the Jaffna railway station. What truly stood out was the exceptional hospitality. I had to travel at an inconvenient time, but the staff were extremely accommodating and graciously adjusted my check-in time. They were very friendly, and the entire place was neat and pleasant. I even received a delicious cup of tea, which was a lovely, welcoming touch. With several food shops also within walking distance, it has everything you need. I will definitely be staying here again for all my future work trips to Jaffna. Highly recommended!

    Tony is a great host! He was very helpful, friendly and nice to chat with. He arranged for me a tour of Jaffna peninsula and helped with other travel arrangements. In the guest house there are whiteboards with lots of useful info for travellers such as train and bus schedules. Breakfast (a la carte) had a lot of options to choose from. Overall basic guest house but with great vibe and services.

    Haran the host was the most helpful we have met. He arranged everything from tours, places to visit and where the best food places to eat. When asked about where to eat out on our final night, he decided to cook us a meal and it was delicious. Breakfasts were outstanding each morning with fresh fruit and home cooked Sri Lankan Jaffna tucker.
