Ella

After the safari we had breakfast in our hotel and we took a bus to Ella. When we got our clothes that were washed in the river, I immediately smelt them and checked if there were any worms in them. They were absolutely fine. I was going to write a review and warn guests about it on the hotel’s page but decided against it as the lady would lose her job, and at the end the clothes were clean.
We travelled to Ella with 3 other couples from our hotel. The bus driver was rushing so much that we thought we were going to have an accident. He was not slowing down on the bends and it was really dangerous. At one point I stared shouting "slower" from the last row of seats at the end of the bus. One woman sitting closer to the driver started shouting "stop". The driver didn't slow down - it was a hair raising bus ride. Fausto said that if somebody is scared of flying, a bus ride in Sri Lanka would cure it.

Ella is amazing, we feel very good here and our hotel is superb, it costs £40 per night but it's very nice and we have a patio and a breath-taking mountain view (in the pictures). To get to the hotel, we have to climb a very steep hill but the view is well worth it.
