I really enjoyed staying here at Kochill and extended my stay to four nights. The room is a good size and very clean and comfortable. The upstairs common area was comfortable and a great place to talk with other guests. And the hosts Babu and Kurumi were always around and very helpful with travel arrangements and ideas for local activities. The theater and dance shows at the local Kathakali theater were fabulous.

Abdul was so helpful throughout the whole booking and was a great communicator. The bed and room were very comfortable and it was peaceful and quiet, which was perfect. I was in a 6-bed female dorm. Abdul helped me organize an inexpensive rickshaw to the airport. Try to eat a meal at the hostel. Abdul's wife is a wonderful cook and you're sure to enjoy it! It is also possible to get in to Kochi from Aluva by metro. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and would use it as a place to explore the surrounding area.

The experience was great, the room is clean, the hostel has very nice rooftop to do whatever you want, and you also have kitchen and laundry machine, in addition the hostel does whatever it can against mosquitoes, and the staff are there for every question or recommendation. The location is great walking distance from a lot of places but still not in the super touristy area, also very close to the ferry.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Good location, good staffs. When I reached to the hostel, they wanted to suggest me another option of the lower bunk bed in another mix dormitory(Ⅰbooked 1 Lady dorm but already occupied lower bunk beds). More over, after arguing with other inns, when I was suddenly told that I wanted to come back here, I was warmly welcomed immediately.
