The hostel was very clean, everything was new and worked well. It was nicely furnished. There was warm water in shower. Lot of space in the room and common area. The common area seemed good for socializing. There wasn't a kitchen but a place to eat your own food and wash your dishes. Air conditioning worked well in the room. There was a television in the common area from which you could probably watch movies. There was nice music in common area. The place was peaceful. I could leave my luggages in the hostel for few hours after checking out. There was a small cafe from where you could buy drinks like coffee, juices and maybe some cutted fruits.

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.

Everything!! This place was such a vibe!! They hostel is clean and well kept, maggy in the cafe is such a sweetheart and the food is lovely. The location is great, close to the beach, jetty and water metro. Naijeen was amazing, I broke my tablet and had deadlines and needed to get my data off of my tablet and he helped me do that. Everyone is so kind and sweet, it feels more like a family than a hostel. And the grounds are stunning, very chill vibe. And Onam celebrations were so good! I barely left the hostel to see stuff in town. One of my favorite hostels 💜

Booked this property since we were in Fort Kochi for exactly 24 hours, most of which we planned to spend outdoors. On that front, it has a great location advantage. It is a short walking distance from the water metro terminal. Places we visited on foot from here: Princess Street, St. Francis Church, David Hall, Vasco Da Gama Square, Chinese Nets, MG Beach, Beach Walkway, Burgher St Cafes & Restaurants - Qissa, Kashi Art Cafe, Trouvaille, Lila Art Cafe, Seagulls Autos were easily available to go to Mattancherry side. The property was a good budget option and was safe, convenient, clean and functional for what we were expecting from a short stay.

    Apart from the clean accomodation. There is an entire community built here just to cater to a backpacker's experience no matter where they are from. Hidden inside it's very peaceful situated away from the city's chaos.
