Castle Hill Guest House has barely changed in 30 years -- a lick of paint here, a small repair or update there. The result for the budget traveller has traditionally been a much-loved family home resonant of a simpler, less demanding era. "To change Castle Hill would be to ruin it, the old look has to remain," says Ayoni Senanayake. That atmosphere still suits some, but more demanding clients, seeking a modern, "boutique" atmosphere or attentive standards of service, should look elsewhere. Standards of cleanliness for instance, can be particularly inconsistent and the family dogs are also not always appreciated.
