To be fair, our experience was not being bad. The room look liked it had just been refurbished, and the bed was confy. The toilet did smell like a wet room though, I think they missed it when refurbishing it. They were still doing work in the house until late.
It was cold, but when we asked for a blanket they gave it to us straight away and we slept great.
In the morning, after we had breakfast, and the time to pay had come, they charged us more than what booking.com said. The owner's excuse was that the daily exchange rate from pounds to rupees was higher than it actually was. To what I politely argued and the owner said he worked in the Sri Lankan central bank and that was the end of the story in a very rude way. I asked him to show me the proof of that rate, but when he could not prove it to me, I ended up paying it because it was not worth arguing anymore.
To sum up, not bad stay. I am sure without this episode my experience would have been different, as everything up to that point was what we expected. Keep and eye on that, and you'll have a good stay.

Not bad apart from the owner

We spent 3 nights in hill view. People are friendly here and can help you if you need to travel in nuwara eliya. Rooms are very basic, some are better and smell less humidity but there is no sound isolation. Many people come in this House so if you like silence and pricacy, try another place. Breakfast is included but very very basic : slices of bread, butter, jam, tea and omelette. Hot water was the good point because nuwara is very cold and humid place. Good cheap place if you travel alone but not very calm and romantic :)

Guest inn friendly, cheap and basic

When we were arrived had worst experience. We had booked two rooms through booking.com. rooms are very bad smelled. Bathrooms are not  cleaned and rooms condition also very poor maintained. Finally we canceled the booking. Room rates are lower than others but their service worst. Owner also not curtesy to the guest. He was varbaly herrest to the guest when we canceled the booking. This is not recommended place to stay and visit in Nuwaraeliya for local or foreign visitors. 

Worst Arrival experience had been Sri Lanka 

We booked two double rooms on booking.com but when we arrived they told us that they don't have any rooms for us.
The manager said that they have another guesthouse where we could stay. It was far away from the town centre but we needed a room so we agreed. He said his boss would come, talk to us and drive us there. 
After an hour waiting nothing happened. We kept asking the manager and he always said that his boss is on the way. Someone finally arrived later but no one was bother to talk us. Then we heard someone arguing very loudly for about 20 minutes, the whole situation was just very strange. 
Finally the boss came, didn't even say hello or sorry and said that he would drive us to the guesthouse. When we got in the car we kept checking our location on my phone. We realized that we were going opposite direction and when we asked the boss he wasn't even able to explain to us what's going on. 
We arrived to a small dodgy looking house and we were definitely sure that we don't want to spend a night there! We had to argue with the boss because he thought that everything is completely fine. We managed to persuade him to drive us to town where we wanted to look for accommodation on our own. But the boss started driving in a different direction again, we were so stressed and frustrated by this point so we just shouted at him to stop the car immediately! We got off and took a tuk tuk.
We have never met anyone so rude and arrogant in Sri Lanka! We were waiting for hours without a proper apology or an explanation, and the boss kept lying to us. The worst experience ever!

The worst experience in Sri Lanka

All parents please be aware there are bed bugs in this inn. The clearness of this hotel rate 1/5, pillowcase turn yellowish n bedsheet too. Floor carpet was sandy and dirty. Washroom's tap spoiled, flash not working properly (cannot flash after motion.....frowzy, smelly....
