We traveled to Colombo for 3 nights with our 2 children aged 10 and 11 before heading to Galle. The taxi from the airport cost 2500sr but be warned its very tricky to find, it is located behind the Golden key eye hospital on the opposite side to Macdonalds.
We chose the City hideout because of its location. The rooms are very basic but are clean and the owner cant do enough to help you with anything.
A taxi to the central area of Petta cost 400sr but we downloaded the Uber app on our phone and that was brilliant. Costs for Uber cab was 300sr.

The ride from the airport is 1hour and a little more but, the view is spectacular. Keells supermarket is nearby and Sebastian (the caretaker) is always ready to make a food and beverage run for the guests. If you walk down the lane for 2-3 mins you'll reach the main road. This is where you'll always get a tuk-tuk or head to the bus stop for the local travel experience.
The house's owned by Mrs. Erin; who speaks fluently in the local language and English. When we asked Erin for suggestions on the local attractions - she was quite knowledgeable and factually accurate. She helped to arrange a sightseeing van for 10pax. It saved over 60% LKR that would have gone if booked by a local agency.
About the rooms; you need to pick hot water or just cold as not all 6 rooms are equipped with a heater. Toiletries, bedsheets, and towels are not an issue as they are available in the room and more on request. Ask Sebastian.

Nous sommes restés une semaine dans cette Guest house et ne serions pas restés plus longtemps ! Erin, la propriétaire, accueillante aux premiers abords, nous a profondément déçue. En effet localisation, propreté et négociations mensongères nous ont poussé à partir au bout d'une semaine. Elle n'a alors pas manqué de nous faire payer 20% de cette fausse réservation....
