We stayed here as we wanted a nice place to stay with good food. The food prices are alright but due to a small kitchen, it takes a long time to prepare. Food is good though, rice and curry Sri Lankan style won't disappoint. They packed a breakfast for us on our early leave for Horton Plains which was very kind. Breakfast the second day was alright but again, long waiting time and food wasn't so warm. However, they were extremely kind and helpful. When we asked if they had a specific drink and they didn't, they suddenly came back 15 minutes later with it, as they had gone and made a special trip just to get it! Rooms were comfortable and very large and there was a nice garden to enjoy drinks in the evening or coffee/tea in the morning. They even had a bonfire the second night and one of the guys got out a guitar to sing and play Sri Lankan songs. Great service, but not walking distance from city center.

We only stayed with Lal one night, but it was amazing. We had just arrived to Sri Lanka that day and arrived just in time for dinner. The table was full of amazing food and the refills never stopped! It was our first meal in Sri Lanka but it was amazing, tons of different curry dishes and rice in Sri Lankan style. Our room was simple but comfortable and Lal and his family showed us the trick to using the outlets without Sri Lankan plugs. They were extremely nice and helpful. Breakfast was also amazing, eggs, roti and coconut pancakes with tea and coffee. Our first two meals in Sri Lanka were our best, nothing else lived up to what we had at Lal's. Amazing, nice and helpful family and the best food in the country. Also 5 minutes drive to Sigiriya, so great location for a morning climb up the rock! Stay here!
