It is very difficult to find such Hostel in Mumbai. I felt welcomed from the first second I entered the doors, downstairs you have a reception and seating area with many plants. Super nice style of the decor. Upstairs are the rooms, I booked a female dorm with 8 beds and I loved it. Spacious Room, Beds with Curtains and everything you need. Highlight were as well the own Bathroom with 2 shower cabins, big and spotless clean!! Amenities like towels, mosquito plugs, little kitchen to use. All of the staff and as well the owner were so friendly and they make everything to have you feel good in their space. Thank you for the stay and vibes and the lovely chat on my last day. I can highly recommend this place for anyone and I am back for sure whenever I am in Mumbai.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

    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.
