“Palm Grove presents a mixed picture; reports suggest that while some aspects require attention, its core appeal lies in its potential for an authentic, budget-conscious stay in Colombo. However, based on reports, the service and facilities may not align with expectations for a comfortable five-night visit. Improvements in service and upkeep would enhance the overall value of this property.”
