A very nice, comfortable, clean place! You have everything you need, plus a fully equipped private kitchenette. It's located on a quiet small road so you don't hear any noise. The bed is massive and very comfortable. There is a TV with Netflix. Highly recommended if you need a place to stay close to Colombo. Great value for the price!

Staying at 55TG boutique from April 2nd to 3rd, 2025, was the perfect way to conclude our Sri Lankan adventure. Our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer! We arrived early from Tangalle, and the staff kindly allowed us an early check-in to our room, the "Art Suite with a beautiful Garden View". It was beautifully decorated, spacious, and impeccably clean. We initially found the wifi signal weak, but our host, Dilshan, immediately demonstrated his exceptional attentiveness by bringing a router directly to our room, which resolved the issue completely – we had a great connection afterwards! The service from Dilshan and his crew throughout our stay was outstanding; their attentiveness made us feel like we were guests in a 5-star restaurant. The food was another major highlight. While seafood wasn't available on the menu during our short stay, the team was very accommodating and even offered to purchase alcohol externally for us if needed. We had lunch, dinner, and breakfast there, and everything was absolutely delicious. The fish curry and rice at dinner was genuinely the BEST meal we had during our entire trip! They even made the setting incredibly romantic, decorating our table with rose petals. As if that wasn't enough, they surprised me on my birthday morning! I certainly wasn't expecting techno birthday music to accompany my scrumptious breakfast – it was such a fun and unexpected touch. It made our early departure for the airport feel even more bittersweet, and we truly wished we could have tipped Dilshan and the staff more generously for their fantastic service. The grounds were quiet and private, contributing to a very peaceful atmosphere and a great night's sleep. Our stay felt far too short but was simply wonderful. Our sincere compliments and thanks to everyone at 55TG boutique for making our stay so memorable and special. It was the perfect ending. (P.S.

    Ground Floor Apartment had no ventalation or any form of sunlight coming in, as this the entire apartment was selaed. Felt like your stucked in side a safe House. Experienced a very unpleasent stay. The Staff overchrged me at the check-in and didnt want to call Booking.com and fix their issue. Later asked to book directly instated of Booking.com and later started increasing the price ! Good Location! But beaware of the extra charges they charge!!

    The place looks very nice and it is very clean. We liked the host very much, and he was really pleasant to deal with. He would bring us breakfast every morning from the restaurant. The view from my studio apartment was also great. It was great to be able to have a washing machine. AC worked well for me.
