    I had a fantastic experience at Best Hostel Yala. I stayed for three nights and the staff, Indika and Pradeep, were incredibly friendly and helpful. They organized a great tour for me to Bundala National Park and even dropped me off at the bus station. The facilities were clean, the location was convenient, and I got a true local experience. I highly recommend staying here for a genuine and enjoyable stay.

    I do recommend this hotel.

    Clean, comfortable hostel with friendly staff. The hostel owner is a knowledgeable guide who offers safari tours to national parks. The rooms are well-maintained with comfortable beds and multiple fans. The location is conveniently close to the center of Tissa and a short walk from the main bus station.

    Some amenities were lacking, such as soap, towels, and toilet paper in the bathroom. Bed sheets required extra payment.

    The value for money at this hostel was great, and our room was comfortable and clean. The location was convenient, close to the bus station and town center. The staff treated us with warm hospitality and provided helpful recommendations.

    The only thing that could have made the breakfast better was more variety in the items offered.
