Hostel Lali beach villa has free bikes, garden, a shared lounge and terrace in Trincomalee. The property is around 1.2 km from Uppuveli beach, 2.2 km from Trincomalee Railway Station and 3.4 km from Kali Kovil. The accommodation features a shared kitchen, room service and currency exchange for guests. Booked a hostel bed, was the only person in the room with a few single beds. Place was relatively clean, very quiet as there was no one else really there. There was no AC remote in the room but there was a fan, the bathroom was en suite so that was nice and the location was decent, only thing it’s a dead end alley so you have to walk around the corner to get to the beach.
