“A double room provides accommodation, but I noted some potential drawbacks: cleanliness could be improved, and basic amenities like a washroom basket are absent. For a brief stay, location in Colombo is its main advantage, though awareness of these shortcomings is key. Ultimately, I'd suggest weighing alternatives before booking.”
