Not a luxury hotel, but excellent option to spend a night after arriving at the airport. Has everything you need - soap, shampoo, body wash, tea and coffee, and air conditioning. Staff were friendly and organised a tuk tuk to pick us up at the airport at 11:30pm and quickly checked us in upon arrival.

Excellent airport pick-up service! I arrived very late at night and was extremely hungry, but the owner kindly ordered a delicious kottu and welcome beer for me. The breakfast the next morning was also great. The owner was incredibly friendly, helping me book taxis, arrange train tickets, and offering useful recommendations. Highly recommended!

New hostel run by extremely nice people. There were some things still being finalized in the room but it was extremely convenient to get to and from the airport. I stayed at two other hostels for similar airport arrangements and this was by far the best.

I stayed in Flexi lodge only one night, sadly it was fully booked after, otherwise I would stay longer. It is a simple place at the beach, bed was clean and it had a mosquito net. Very good value for the money and kind hosts. Will return back one day! :)

The location is close to the airport, easy to find. The owner and her daughter are very friendly! She gave me so many tips for my trip and he came with me at the bus station and waited with me before I left. The price is very fair. 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!

Great location near airport! Ashan made sure I could arrive safely late at night and gave me heaps of advice on getting around Sri Lanka. I came back again at the end of my time in the country and he was super helpful in making sure I got to the airport in the early morning! The room was nice and clean. Lovely stay thank you so much!!!
