"Everything was perfect "

"Ashanthi and Mr.Daboo are really nice hosts. Due to the Iran- US war, my flight got cancelled and I couldn't check-in on time. So Ashanthi refunded me for the three days I couldn't stay, which I really appreciate it. The place is nice, all rooms and the living room are air conditioned. Everything is clean and Mr. Daboo checked up on us a couple of times as well. Highly recommend it! "

"This is far from a 4* hotel. The property is VERY run down and so many things are broken. It needs urgent repairs but nobody seems to be bothered. Staff at check in were not bothered at all, take it or leave it attitude. The doorman/porter was the only nice person. Check-in was at 2pm I arrived at 5pm waited for a hour and my room was still not ready. After 2 hours still nothing but nobody was bothered, so I went elsewhere. Overall worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in "

"Great"

"Amazing place and superb staff. "

"It is a cheap place to stay. You get what you pay for."

"I recently visited Colombo for 5 days in October 2025 and stayed at 50 by the Sea - Had an excellent stay there and all my expectations were met - at times went above the expectations also. The apartment looks very new, is very well maintained and most importantly, its extremely clean. Ive visited Colombo many times and many times, I faced the issue of not so clean bathrooms at some residences - at 50 by the Sea, the bathrooms were so clean and neat that it looked like a 5 star hotel's washroom ( I am from luxury hospitality background, so I can assure you of this high, comparable quality at this place ) - The staff were extremely polite and helpful - I had a few encounters with their housekeeping team and security team - very warm, friendly and helpful. I requested for a few things during my stay and got immediate assistance. The Reservations Manager, Ms Shehara is very kind & approachable - she would often call me to check how I was doing and if everything was ok . The rooms are good in size for single travelers and couples - overlooking the Mt Lavinia beach and beautiful sea view. Any drawbacks ? Well, depending on what you are looking for : * The facility doesn't have its own dining outlet - which is not a big issue as there are many outlets nearby , walking distance. * The accommodation is very close to the Mt Lavinia Railway track so there is plenty of noise - may disturb some and some may find it hard to sleep - for me it was not a big issue "
