Great location, lovely owner! Very budget friendly.
Great location across the street from the beach, lots of shops and restaurants at your doorstep. Doesn’t offer breakfast but a really nice locally run restaurant just at the gates which we went to every morning, delicious food and friendly staff. Large, clean too with AC and fan. Budget friendly.

It was clean n there were cute cats at the hostel.You can checkout n keep your luggage in locker room n explore too..
We moved here from another property within Mirissa that wasn’t what it was advertised - the owner was able to accommodate us at short notice, great location walking distance to all of the main cafes/restaurants, near to our favourite (Junction Cafe and Gedara Curry). Really clean, excellent air con and quiet at night (road fairly busy until 7-8pm but not much after this) We booked into the budget double room which didn’t have a fridge, but staff were more than happy to let us use fridge over the road in the kitchen
Clean, friendly people, good to sleep(air-conditioning in the dorms) nature all around. Kitchen to cook. Cheap! Hands down the best value for money of any hostel I stayed at in 6 months in Sri Lanka. I stayed at Abinu's years ago, came back now and will be back next trip. Nearby the beach and shops, very recommended
Great location, very helpful friendly staff, nice break from hostels and fab facilities. Enjoyed the balcony and fridge and huge bed and tv
