Sunset Galle Fort Reviews

I had some other hotel arrangements fall through so had a taxi take me to a 3 star hotel in Galle Fort. This is where he took me. The manager booked me in for a two night stay. Once I was settled, I checked pricing online. I was charged just about double the online rate. My fault I suppose, but I was pretty unhappy about it. The manager offered a "discounted" rate to extend my stay (normal online booking rate). I declined his offer. The rooms are pretty basic but ok. The beds offer mosquito netting, which I advise be used. I got quite a few bites the first night. As for the pros... the breakfast was nice and portions plentiful. The staff were accommodating and helpful. And the cons....The place could use some maintenance. The hardware fell out of the locking mechanism for the deck sliding door. This made it impossible to secure the door against entry. The deck was accessible to anyone, so I didn't get a great feeling about leaving anything of value in the room. Also, there was no hot water. Unfortunately, there was no wifi in the guest room. You had to go to the lobby or communal TV viewing area for internet. There are other places near that are better value.
