There was a smell and the sheets were dirty (they did change it upon asking)

Location, price, staff.

Locally run homestay targeted at domestic tourism. But suits perfectly for the central Bycola location in Mumbai. Helpful staff and delightful owner keen to take care of any tourist coming in. Highly recommended.

Everything was clean

The smallest room and the smallest toilet and shower room I have ever experienced.

Good location opposite Byculla station and close to restaurants and the main Expressway!

The room and surroundings are well maintained. Room is spacious enough to accommodate 3 or 4 people without any congestion. There's no restaurant attached to the property, but they brought us the food from outside. Recommend for family.

Bed is too short, even for person of 165 cm. Our room was next to the open kitchen (actually one of window was just above stove) so all smells and aromas from cooking came to our room. Since staff were preparing dinner and then washing dishes late in the evening and preparing chai early in the morning, it was noisy while we were trying to sleep. Edit: Owner/manager was calling and sending me messages without any particular purpose in period after booking and before staying, once he called me and ask what is the weather in Delhi.

Location is good, just around the corner of bus station. Place is clean. Hot water 24/7. Staff is polite. Bathroom is tiny.

Very small bathroom. Specious room (17m2) furnished with 5 beds, no space for anything else. No tea/ coffee in the room, no kettle.

All in context, Indian hotels are hard to compare to Europe or Thailand... . Al Shifa had the guesthouse feel (5 rooms only) with a super friendly manager always ready to help. Location was about 80m from the busy street, quite at night. For Mumbai, the price was hard to beat. And as an extra bonus, when you are sick of the Mumbai traffic, go to the zoo & XIX c. museum of Mumbai located 400 meters from the guesthouse.

The place is clean and the personal amazing. Shifa and the workers were so good hosts. Always open to help in everything and make the stay an endearing experience.

Each and every thing it’s a lodge not hotel

Very unhygienic and worst property I would ever seen, bathroom size was too small u can’t even bath, rooms smells like rotten eggs, and passage is also very narrow, location can’t be find by any Ola Uber etc very poor hospitality, actually it should be banned no need to run such hotel like this where we give money to get disappointed.

Great location, in a calm street away from the main axes. Super relax staff, helping and joyful.

Stayed in March 2023

Staff was literally 1m from my window and loud noises/music/speech was always late till 12-01am. Also, every room is located on ground floor and everybody/staff is always right by your window. Zero privacy

I had 50/50 of warm water, when i held it on low pressure, had a nice toilet and working (but loud) AC and thats about it.

Nothing it was all great. When in Mumbai I will come back!

The staff was outstandingly friendly and helpful. They really went out of their way to make sure you got everything you need.The property is very cosy with a calm atmosphere. Very silent street but in seconds you are in the hustle and bustle of Mumbai. I felt very safe here as a female solo traveler. Very close (2 minutes) to Byculla Station which is the oldest in India. From here you have pretty easy access to most of the city especially the sightseeing center. Rooms were spacious and very clean. Good bathroom with hot water. Extremely fast WiFi. I didn't need the AC it was working well. There is also a little cooking stove that can be used by all.
