  • Tony's Garden House Back Packers inn

    Homestay in Jaffna
    Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.4
    Superb - What previous guests thought, 455 reviews
    Tony is a great host! He was very helpful, friendly and nice to chat with. He arranged for me a tour of Jaffna peninsula and helped with other travel arrangements. In the guest house there are whiteboards with lots of useful info for travellers such as train and bus schedules. Breakfast (a la carte) had a lot of options to choose from. Overall basic guest house but with great vibe and services.
