This little BnB is a hidden gem in a bustling city, offering clean and spacious rooms with a welcoming atmosphere. The staff goes above and beyond to provide exceptional service, making it a pleasant stay overall. However, noise levels can be inconsistent due to shared areas, and the lack of natural light in the rooms can be a drawback for some. Though the facilities are basic, the value for money is commendable, especially with a quality breakfast included.

My stay at Drift was such a pleasant experience! The location is perfect, with easy access to great local spots. The room was spacious and clean, creating a cozy atmosphere, and the staff went above and beyond to help me during my visit. On the downside, the noise from the busy road outside was a bit bothersome at times, and I wished there was a mosquito net for added comfort. Overall, it's a fantastic place for travelers looking for a blend of relaxation and socializing.

I had an amazing stay at Drift BNB! The rooms were clean and comfortable, and I loved how welcoming the staff was. The breakfast was nice, but sometimes a bit simple. The location made it easy to explore Colombo, but if you're a light sleeper, you might find the noise from the communal area a bit bothersome. Overall, it's a great value for money in the busy city!
