    The private room I stayed in was clean and spacious, with a nice modern design. The staff was friendly, professional, and provided helpful tips. The breakfast options, although not included, were delicious and diverse. The location was convenient, just a short tuk tuk ride away from main sites.

    The atmosphere at Bunkyard Hostels was fantastic. The communal area had chilled music and a fun vibe. The staff were super helpful, going out of their way to assist guests. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the wifi worked well. They even allowed me to store my bike for three weeks while I traveled around Sri Lanka. I highly recommend this hostel.

    I had a fantastic experience staying at a hostel in a great neighbourhood of Colombo. It was centrally-located in a calm, green area called Cinnamon Gardens. the staff at Bunkyard's Hostel was incredibly nice and the atmosphere was great. the double bed room I stayed in was spacious and clean, regularly maintained by the staff. I also enjoyed the complementary breakfast options and the convenience of being able to leave my luggage after checkout. Cons: Couldn't fault. 👌.

    The value for money at this hostel was incredible. The beds and showers were amazing, and it was easy to meet other people. The staff went above and beyond by packing and transporting my belongings to the hospital after my check-up turned into an admission. The location was great, with plenty of places to explore and easy access to tuk tuks. The staff were helpful in recommending places to visit and providing a map. The hostel had a trendy and chilled atmosphere, and the beds were comfortable. Special shoutout to the lovely staff, especially Iresha, who were always friendly and went out of their way to assist. The traditional Sri Lankan breakfast was delicious, with options like coconut rotis, sambol, and daal. I felt safe during my stay and would highly recommend this place.

    That the locker in the room made some noise when opening and closing, which made me a bit paranoid about waking up other people.

    The hostel was really nice! It was clean and pretty beautiful! the rooms are really clean and comfortable with good air-conditioning. It has a large downstairs area that is good for hanging out in and meeting other travelers. It's in a good area a short walk to restaurants, cafes and supermarkets. the highlight of this hostel is Gihan though, nicest guy who helped plan my entire trip for me and even stored my large bag for 3 weeks! Great place, highly recommended.

    Felt almost like at home, no complaints.

    I had a fantastic stay at a trendy hostel with a chilled atmosphere. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, going out of their way to assist me. The communal area had a great vibe, with relaxing music and useful information about the city displayed prominently. The beds were comfortable, the breakfast included was simple but tasty, and I appreciated the hot showers and good WiFi in the common area. The hostel even allowed me to do early check-in and stored my luggage when I wanted to explore the city after checking out.
