“Hotel Marilyn, a 2-star stay in Negombo, stands out not for its stars, but for a genuine warmth; the owner's airport pickups and small kindnesses create a real sense of welcome. I found the location ideal-quietly tucked away yet close to the beach and local spots. For travelers seeking simple comforts and heartfelt hospitality, Marilyn makes a compelling case.”
