The structure is perfect! Once you enter you will never want to leave! The owner is the kindest and most altruistic person you will meet during your trip. All the staff are super helpful (they picked us up at the station and picked us to the main road several times) The services are always clean, the kitchen is very spacious and well served, the owner has also provided tea and several infusions for every need, all of high quality. Relaxing outside will be a must! More than in a hostel I felt like I was staying in a 5-star hotel !! 😍 The owner also made us do meditation and for my birthday they also organized a wonderful surprise, I couldn’t ask for anything better, we felt like family, we can’t wait to come back!

I had the best time at The Well so I came back here 4 times during my trip!! The owners do the most to ensure a great stay. It is not a party or super social hostel but the atmosphere is super laid-back and together with the beautiful pool area, it is the perfect place to relax. The price for the dorms is very reasonable as they are very clean, the beds are very comfortable and have curtains. I have met the best people at this place and would always come back here. Danke nochmal Eric!

The location was perfect, right near the main public transport terminals in Galle. Having been away from SL for quite a few years, it was exceptionally easy to find. The food was amazing, I had been craving Sri Lankan food the whole journey down and the food at the Sydney hotel (linked to the snooze station) really hit the spot. The staff were incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable. Assisting me in finding my way around and recommendations. I think I have found my place to stay whenever I make it to Galle!
