Locomo Express - Stay Work Eat, hotel in Mumbai

Locomo Express - Stay Work Eat in Mumbai provides adults-only accommodation with free bikes, a garden and a shared lounge.

Primarily being situated in a prime location where its close to eateries, places of interests, transit options like Juhu airport, makes it a fantastic choice for both work and leisure occasions. Coming to the property itself, it is a beautiful compact building, enveloped in the midst, away from the urban noise. Greeted by a citric mist welcome and cats (if you are lucky and/or like cats), you’ll meet with Mohammad and Mujibul, the sincere, dedicated Express-ians who will compliment but not complicate the stay. We were carefully introduced to the norms of the stay and escorted to our rooms. And on a side note, the staircase might feel small in space but with perforated wall screen adjacent to the stairs makes it aesthetically pleasant. They were fantastic with handling unforeseen situations. There was an incident with the geyser in our room that we stayed in and they were incredibly responsive to make our comforts meet by providing an alternate solution with hot water supply. The common spaces like food area and games space are connected with many rooms, easily accessible by upper floors as well. A variety of collection of games and interactive experiences can be found and best induced in memories if made with new people available at everyone’s convenient time. Our room was on the third floor attached with 2 other rooms interlinked with a common kitchen, living and lobby space. It was precise and minimal in decor and furnitures. Water dispensary tank and kettles are available for quick beverage session. A blend of yellow and blue in the interior colour scheme of the room subtly lightens, brightens and condenses the worries one’s idea of the room. Well at least made us feel so. A closet, bed, study table with chair, and AC along with smart fan suffices the stay. The bathroom was clean, hygiene and update-to-last-minute when we entered. Compliments the room in a way, and the whole building with the compactness and minimal feel.

    This is simply the best hostel I have been to in India. It is amazing! Very helpful stuff, they literally helped me with everything, with all the questions I had. Very polite and professional. There was no people who would drink alcohol or party, which is a huge plus. Nobody bothered me through my stay, very safe. I am traveling alone as a female so it is important for me. Terrace is simply amazing, I spend a lot of time there. The rooms were clean, very comfortable bed. I recommend it 100%

    Locomo is by far the best hostel I have stayed in mumbai. Very neat and clean property..washrooms are extremely clean and to my surprise, the cleaning team comes thrice a day to clean the room. Very well maintained hostel and perfect stay for backpackers..Staff is wonderful and kind.. well trained and professional..They have designated guy for carrying luggage he just comes on a whim for helping with luggage. Roof top lighting’s are so amazing and evening sunset with tea and music is mesmerising.

    This was my first krazy solo hostel experience and i must admit it was really good. This place is ideal for budget travellers who are looking for clean and safe stays. The staffs are truly helpful. The location and the property is safe for travellers which is helpful for people who have late night flights. Overall, the stay was worth the money.
