I had a pleasant experience at the rest house during a rainy night. The room was spacious and very clean, perfect for some relaxation after a long journey. The breakfast was top-notch, showcasing local flavors, but I did notice that the proximity to the main road caused a bit of dust during dry seasons. Overall, it was a cozy place to unwind, but keep in mind the occasional noise from passing traffic.

I had a pleasant stay at Dambulla rest after a long journey, enjoying the clean and refreshed atmosphere. The location is very convenient for visiting nearby attractions, but the rooms were quite basic and lacked air conditioning, which might not be ideal during summer. The dining experience was enjoyable with a tasty Sri Lankan breakfast, but the options for vegetarians could be improved. Overall, it's a good stop for a quick rest, but don't expect anything luxurious.

The Dambulla Rest House is suitable for a brief stay, with decent comfort and cleanliness in the rooms. It's located near the Golden Buddha Temple, which is a plus for early risers. However, the lack of AC can be challenging during hotter months, and the dining experience could use improvement, especially regarding the vegetarian options and pricing. The overall atmosphere is relaxing with a nice lawn, but expect some limitations.

I had a mixed experience at the Rest House. The location is great for visiting the Dambulla caves, making it super convenient. However, the rooms left much to be desired as they were dark, smelly, and not very inviting. While the staff were friendly and helpful, the overall state of the hotel detracted from my stay. I ended up checking out early because I couldn't handle the conditions of the room, which was quite disappointing.
