This is my second time back at Seconds Hostel, it feels like home here I’ll come back whenever I am in Colombo! The staff and owner are super friendly and service-minded as always. There is a chef this time and the shrimp mango pancake was delicious.

The riceptionist welcome very friendly and the budget is very good price with breakfast & I like the vibe at night in this hotel with their little music and romantic. Imperfections in here are the they have only one breakfast ( waffles with banana & coffee ) for all guests. They dont have more options and for other options have to pay.. Overall its a good place.. I stayed there not for vacation just for my own works..

Potential to be better than it is. Dirty and messy place. Looks better on pictures than in reality. Biggest problem though was the manager that greeted us at night. On Hostelworld there is a wrong description of the rooms and he tried to blame us to not have booked the right rooms whereas it was obvious that they couldn’t deliver what we booked. On top his aggression towards us complaining that we don’t get what we ordered was unacceptable.

A Gem of a Hostel with Endless Fun and Great Amenities! I recently had the pleasure of staying at a fantastic hostel in Colombo, and I can confidently say it exceeded all my expectations! This hidden gem offered an unforgettable experience with a blend of fun, relaxation, and excellent amenities. First and foremost, the hostel's small but inviting pool was the perfect spot to cool off and unwind after a day of exploring the city. Even though it was on the smaller side, it still provided a refreshing escape and offered a chance to mingle with other guests. One of the highlights of my stay was the wonderful array of games available, ensuring that there was never a dull moment. Spending evenings with the friendly hosts and other guests in entertaining game sessions created an atmosphere of camaraderie and joy. Moreover, the hostel's diverse selection of fun and interesting activities kept everyone engaged throughout the day. Whether it was city tours, cultural workshops, or outdoor excursions, there was something for everyone to enjoy. This made the overall experience even more enriching and unforgettable. The staff at the hostel were incredibly welcoming and attentive, always ready to assist with any queries or recommendations. Their warm and friendly demeanor added a personal touch, making the stay feel more like visiting friends rather than staying at a typical hostel. In conclusion, if you're looking for a hostel in Colombo that offers a perfect blend of relaxation, entertainment, and fantastic amenities, look no further! This hostel's small pool, delightful cafe, engaging games, and diverse activities make it a top-notch choice for any traveler. I can't wait to return and experience this little slice of paradise once again!

I visited there one month ago, and they didn't have any locks available for the lockers. Furthermore, the lockers themselves were not compatible with any other locks. They charged me extra, and when I informed them that I didn't want to stay due to the absence of lockers, they refused to provide a refund. The staff member at the hostel was extremely rude, making it one of my worst experiences ever. You can check my profile to see that I rarely leave negative reviews for places. I just want to caution you about the lack of quality at this establishment.
