#51 HangLoose Hotel was known as #51 GrassRoof Hotel for many years before it changed the name.
Muslim owned and run, #51 has always been very popular with Israeli Surfers, who felt very much at home in the former GrassRoof.
Mr. Farook, who was known to have a high, distinctive voice is the manager when he can spare time from this other jobs as local teacher in the Muslim college or his duties with the Arugam Bay Tourist Association or rubbish Collection service.

Lucky that Mr. Rasool is on hand, every day, to look after guests and frequent People’s Bank Congresses held at #51 HangLoose.
Rascal Rasool is slowly, but surely becoming another AbaY original.
Meet him one day and you you are certain to have Great Respect!
Meet him later that night: He will respect you, for sure.
#51 HangLoose offers rooms at good rates, is known for good food and nice vibes.
For the 2011 season we are informed that air conditioned rooms have also been added to the range of budget accommodation.
