    Rooms a bit cozy space wise, but the beds were comfy and had curtains which offered privacy.

    Good location near a busy street, but ducked off so it’s still quiet. Shops, food, etc all with walking, but also easy access to rickshaw. Quiet and calm vibe..definitely not a party hostel, which I appreciate. A nice communal indoor/outdoor area, basic kitchen for cooking small meal or making tea, clean, hot shower with good water pressure. Strong WiFi.

    6 bed female dorm was so small you could hardly move around. Staff wasn't very friendly.

    It's really hard to tell what's going on in this hostel. The vibe is off. There are lockers and lights/outlets at every bed in the 6 bed female dorm. 1 female only bathroom. Breakfast was great!

    Dorm room was small and narrow, but not an issue really. And if you have the bed next to the fan it can be quite annoying at night, but again - manageable.

    Cool hostel with a nice vibe and really tasty breakfast. Was my first time in India as solo-female so wasn't sure what to expect, but this was a nice introduction. Good location too and sociable spaces. Bed was comfortable. There was also a female-only toilet/shower which was nice.

    The dorm arrangement was a little short on space to move around.

    Very basic backpackers with dorms. The place is small and adequate for budget travelers. The staff are friendly and the chill space is nice. The location is great. For basic budget traveling, this backpackers is great. If you want a little more comfort in terms of space or privacy, then better to look elsewhere.

    Not much really, maybe have more instruction for guest on how to use the locks in the shower area would have been helpful for a first time visitor

    Well the location was perfect for me, several blocks from Bloom a boutique hotel where my friends where staying. I like to travel to Hostels because you are aways meeting travelers who have to budget their $$$. not to mention when in a hotel you isolate yourself from meeting people. Did i mention that the money I save at a hostel allowed me to fly to Goa and stay at Palolem Beach for Seven days. You do the math.

    It was sometimes hard to find staff to ask questions to so I resorted to asking other guests. The rooms were small and dark, very cramped and a bit claustrophobic. The bathrooms weren't great, and there were only 5 of them which were also showers so everything was always wet when you went to the loo.

    The location is the number one reason to choose this hostel, right in Bandra West among great bars and restaurants etc, it really is the perfect location. The included breakfast was a great perk as well as only a couple hostels I've stayed in here in India have had that. There looked to be a good kitchen facility for cooking food for yourself though I didn't use it.

    It's a classic hostel... Comfortable, clean, safe, friendly and social. The staff also really take care of you and make sure you enjoy your stay. The location is excellent, connected very well to travel to all parts of the city. You also have multiple restaurants around the hostel which was such a plus for me. All in all, a wonderful experience.

    Breakfast was included but it was ‘make it yourself’. Not a huge issue but if you’re not a confident cooker (like myself) it can be a little disappointing. Overall, I think a little overpriced for India compared to other stays I have had.

    Very clean and social hostel. Staff were very helpful and the hang out area is great! Showers and toilets always being cleaned and dorm beds were very comfortable, all with privacy curtains and huge storage lockers. Felt very safe here as a female traveller.

    There’s an inside shoes outside shoes policy which doesn’t seem to be the most convenient ( especially if you only have one set of flip flops), but nothing too bad. A few of the beds are missing the curtains, which could provide some privacy. I’d recommend installing some small shelves for each bed - the cuppies provided are impossible to clean properly and can get a little gross.

    Great location, just off the busy street. Cozy little courtyard in the heart of the city. A different cooked breakfast offered every day. Friendly, helpful staff - especially Abhul, the only one who speaks great English. Good wifi. Good vibes, met some nice people.

    A lot of people in my dorm. But they made a good job to seperate each other. Not really a complain. More what I noticed myself.

    I enjoyed the breakfast, should have that in more places in India. Clean place, nice decoratiion. Helpfull staff. Good experience.
