The location is a major advantage, making it convenient to explore Jaffna. The breakfast was genuinely delicious, and the service from the breakfast staff was excellent. The hotel employees were generally friendly and tried their best to help us. When we reported a leak in our room, it was repaired quickly, which we appreciated.
We specifically chose this hotel over cheaper alternatives because of the swimming pool and were willing to pay a higher price for this facility. Unfortunately, the pool was out of service throughout our stay. We were told it had already been unavailable for approximately two weeks and would remain closed for at least another week. This was a major disappointment and should have been communicated before arrival.
Our room also had a defective window that was partially covered with plywood and tape and could not be properly closed. This allowed mosquitoes to enter the room and made it difficult to maintain a comfortable temperature with the air conditioning.
The towels were not sufficiently clean, and we also experienced a leak in our room. Although the leak was repaired quickly, the overall maintenance and cleanliness standards fell below our expectations for a hotel in this price range.
To be fair, we felt that the hotel employees were generally doing their best under the circumstances. Our main concern is the apparent lack of effective management oversight and follow-up.
We raised our concerns and requested reasonable compensation for the unavailable swimming pool and the problems with our room. Unfortunately, we received no response to our complaint or compensation request.
The employees were generally willing to help with immediate issues, but the broader problems with facilities, maintenance and complaint handling remained unresolved. Also I booking.com didn’t answer. The reception blamed they cannot resolve because it is booked via booking.com
