    It was quite cold in the bathroom and on the way to the shower. It would've been nice if they provided slippers especially in the cold months. Not everyone has slippers with them.

    The people at the reception were very kind and helpful. They gave me tips on what to see in Kochi and to try Janmen.

    We were unaware that access to the showers & toilets was outdoors which made our stay less comfortable in Winter. Only comfortable common area for the private rooms was a bar also open to the public which closed at 8pm. Private rooms were basic without comfortable seating. Kitchen facilities were extremely limited, again with no space to sit for eating, & also required outdoor access. Western beds were very hard.

    Super clean & modern bathrooms. Staff were very helpful. Location was convenient to station & big supermarket.

    Shower room and toilet are outside. This is not a big problem generally, but very cold when you try to go sometimes in winter.

    Clean and big space. Very big and comfortable living room space.

    - bed was uncomfortable (too hard); futon works on a tatami but not really on a wooden board - room door opening/ closing was really noisy (the lock device was not really the problem, but the door wouldn't close quietly even when trying) - bar was not open :(

    - close to the center (Hirome market, shopping district, etc...) - really helpful and friendly staff (made it possible to check-in late) - very clean, modern style rooms/ bathrooms

    Nothing.

    Clean and Modern Hostel. Very outside oriented, meaning toilets and other facilities are on a terrace like area, which I enjoyed. Rooms didnt have to many people and quiet a lot of space between beds and luggage storage space for a hostel. Also boxes for sleeping were a lot bigger than normal.

    Nothing in particular but it is pretty expensive for a hostel but the amenities it comes with, just make sense. So, it was fine for me as the location was very convenient too.

    The entire interior was so modern and feasible to use around the areas. The shower rooms were especially excellent. The bed was super comfy and I had a good sleep. I checked in later (21:35) than their usual hours and I also had to check out really early (5:35) the next morning. So, I couldn't do the formal check-in and check-out process in the hostel reception and they let me do a self-check-in, and all the details and rules were mentioned in a paper kept on my bed. I came, checked in, had a relaxing shower, packed my luggage silently, slept, woke up, got ready, and checked out without any trouble. I am very grateful for the self-check-in and check-out and the location was very convenient too as Kochi Station and Bus Terminals are nearby. Not kidding, but the hostel looked so boujee from outside when I arrived at night, I almost thought maybe it was not the one I booked. LMAO.

    Vaguely inconvenient to shower on a different level. Kitchen facilities small and limited, I was the only one using at the time but I can imagine if the place was full up it would take a very long time for everyone to have their meals or hot drinks

    clean, new and comfortable rooms, friendly and helpful staff. Good value for price

    I liked how the hostel waited for us until our arrival to check us in. We were briefed about the facilities and made sure we were comfortable. We were a group of 5, so getting our own space was amazing!

    The futon was a little thin and there is not a lot of noise insulation. I sleep like the dead so it didn’t bother me but for others I’d keep it in mind if you are a light sleeper.

    The property is really nice, aesthetically it’s really nice and it is extremely clean.

    The separation of showers and toilets from the main rooms was a little odd and not completely convenient. The toilets ended up be overheated as it was the height of summer and they had no AC.

    The beds were very comfy and everything was very clean. Over all I liked the showers/ wash rooms and the shared area was very comfortable.

    Double decker is made of wood and would make cracking noise (only) when lying down. It didnt bother me, but I don't know what the people downstairs thought was going on. Toilet is outside and in july veeeery hot. Beware. My room was on the top 4th floor. There are no elevators, if that is a factor for someone. I didn't mind the little exercise. Fridge made occasional noises, if you are sensitive to noise during sleep, I suggest plugging it out.

    Clean, simple design, comfortable bed Shower room was clean and in my case always empty. Virtually no noise from neighbours, and I knew the rooms were occupied. It might have been a quiet person or the insulation was great. There was a fridge in my room with a tiny freezer section.
