Great value for money! It's close to the airport and the owner has many secret locations to go to which are perfect and less costly to be in. The airport transfer is also comparatively cheaper and rooms are very clean. Definitely worth staying in this place for a few days and explore the area here.

Great hostel, big dorm beds, clean bathrooms, super helpful and happy staff, great restaurant although booked out most nights, so you need to book if you want a table. Close to the beach, although not the nicest beach. Perfect stay for being close-ish to the airport

The staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and always went above and beyond. The location is perfect, and their café is lovely. They even helped us organize our onward travel, which made everything so much easier. Highly recommended! Chakara was always available via WhatsApp if we needed anything! Thank you so much!!!

Absolutely loved my stay at Sky Hostel! The place is impeccably clean and the staff is incredibly friendly. They offer free bicycles, which made exploring the city so convenient and fun. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it feel like a true home away from home. Highly recommend for both locals and travelers!"

The host is amazing.Picked me up at the airport with communication on WhatsApp and drove to the hostel. Was so helpful with organizing onward travel and as I sat down to register a friendly beer was put in front of me. The room is simple but all that anyone needs . Good aircon , solid WiFi. For a stay over this was perfect.

I stayed here on my last day in Sri Lanka to leave for the airport.The rooms are very clean and good. All basic toiletries were available and it was all you need on your transit days.The host was very kind n friendly, helped with early morning tuk tuk for 1500.He also gave good suggestions for eateries nearby which were super convenient and budget friendly.I highly recommend this place 🙂..Airport is just 15 min away and I was traveling solo n felt safe n comfortable here.

Yohan, is the best Hostel Host you can think of! I like when you get cool drinks from the fridge at the hostel and you don't have to pay imediately. You also get water for free! Yohan always helps you if you need something. 100% Recommend!

We had a lovely stay here and would’ve stayed longer if we didn’t have a flight out the next morning. Staff are very welcoming and attentive. Rooms are clean and spacious. Great location to the airport, super cheap Uber ride.

The owner is the nicest person!! He is so helpful and takes care that you arrive safe at the hotel no matter which time your flight arrives! He even helped me after checking out with some transport issues, he was incredibly supportive! The hotel is only 8min drive from the airport so it is perfect for the beginning. The room was big, clean and the bed was comfortable. I arrived around midnight at the airport as a solo travelling woman and felt very safe as the owner picked me up for a very cheap price. Huge recommendation for everyone!

Super nice hostel with comfortable beds, even though you're in a dorm room the layout allows for a lot of privacy. Hot and powerful shower. Clean facilities. Great location near the airport. Could have stayed longer if I wasn't flying home the next day!
