Very tiny and dirty hotel. Even lizards are in the room. Gallery between room is very thin. Every where hotel is full of smell. Even bed sheet to cover yourself in the night is not available. Pillows are very hard and dirty.

The only good thing was a smiling guy at the desk. it is shabby, dirty, no top sheet for the bed..tiny little dark place for breakfast. It would not even pass as a hostel. It is listed on Agoda and they have lost our business for that. I emailed 4 times to ask them to send a taxi to the... More

Stayed for one night. Needed budget accommodation as was flying out of Colombo the next evening. The room was very basic and not the cleanest. Bathroom is tiny and was filthy, obviously hasn't been cleaned in weeks. There wasn't enough space to even sit on the toilet as there was a pillar directly between your legs. Very annoyig! No toilet... More

We booked two nights here through Agoda at the end of the tourist season and just before the England cricket test match was due to begin so there weren't many options. The services was welcoming and friendly. The location means that tuk tuks are needed to get to most places but being relatively central these don't cost too much. They... More

You get what you pay for, I suppose. Unfortunately in Colombo, you have to pay a lot to get the bare minimum. There are few budget places to stay in Colombo. So Hotel Sansu would be one of these few options. At $32 US a night for a single room, most backpackers won't be pleased. But it's a serviceable option,... More

Don't expect a classy hotel, I come for the 2nd time in hotel Sansu, and it's perfect for a short stay in colombo. Cheap hotel and clean. The next day if you have a train this hotel is well situated from Fort railaway station, few minutes drive in tuk tuk.

I made a one day transit stay at Colombo when returning from Maldives to India. Being just a quick day trip, I choose a low cost hotel that looked good in pictures and cost just $32 a night. Big mistake! - the hotel is in a corner of Colombo. Reaching the hotel took me an hour from the airport at... More

I stayed there for one night with my family. The rooms and bathrooms were clean. The location is far from downtown. I donot recommend to stay here unless strict budget restrictions. The room was around $42 though not cheap but less than other hotels in colombo. The ACs are very old and dont work.

I booked this place last minute when the usual place I go to in Colombo was booked up. The room was clean enough but pretty run down - stained walls and a dripping ceiling in the bathroom. There was a really noisy air conditioning unit outside our room, which kept on going on and off throughout the night. The guy... More
