The Well is the best place to stay in Ahangama! Super clean, perfectly located, comfy beds (with curtains!) and the dreamiest little pool. Plus the yoga shala is so good! Highly recommend it for your next trip! You'll want to stay forever!

Amazing value for money! It’s a very comfortable hostel, with a huge hang out area with a kitchen, and only a few minutes away by Tuktuk or bus from Galle Fort. The bed has little privacy and can get a bit hot at night, but the net and the fan on the bed kind of solves these issues. The showers are one of the best I had in Sri Lanka, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Even though I only stayed one night, they allowed me to keep my stuff here and use the bathroom, which was very convenient. Really recommend!

The hostel was very clean especially the washrooms and it was definitely value for money since the location was central to all the attractions I wanted to visit. The hostel included an old age arrack bar which was a great addition as I was traveling by myself. Highly recommend this place as it is convenient and provides great accommodation and hospitality for affordable prices.
