Was a good package type destination with coaches coming in from the airport. Nothing wrong with that but we had been staying in less busy Sri Lankan hotels prior to coming. No complaints but not really us.

With close proximity to the airport, Bohemian Nest was just what we needed after our late night flight. Quick check in, quiet room, and wonderful Sri Lankan breakfast all made this first night comfortable. Would definitely recommend!
