    Could do with a little shelf next to the charger to put phone on to charge at night and a water bottle.

    one of the cleanest hostels I’ve stayed in in India. There seemed to constantly be 3 members of cleaning staff ensuring the washrooms, bedrooms and communal areas were immaculate. The dorm beds were cosy and private with a curtain and ample storage for both big bag under bed and also smaller items within the bunk.

    Top place in Mumbai

    What I like the most is the bed space, with 2 lockers, one by your bed , one underneath, a shelf, plug ins, light and curtain for privacy. The space in the room is amazing as in the large bathroom which is kept very clean throughout the day and with enough toilets and showers . The common area is so colorful it really makes you want and sit there by grabbing a book from their bookshelf, a board game, watch Netflix on the big screen or just chill. The kitchen has everything you need to cook from water heater to toaster, microwave, stove, spices, cooking ingredients, fridge and fresh water to drink all day . The staff is very kind, all day around, ready to help. It’s a quick .50 cent ride to any buzzing part of the city. Many supermarkets, shops, market, restaurants and street food are nearby right on the street .They have mixed, male and female dorms. Each door opens which a code which is very amazing and the whole place is under surveillance.

    This place has amazing vibes. The owner is very polite and does make the place feel more like home! If you’re staying in Bombay, I’d really recommend this place!

    I had the dorm bed by the door and it was a little noisy in the morning as people were getting up and opening the door. Normal for a dorm though.

    Cool, safe-feeling building with nice common area and kitchen, and comfy dorm beds with curtain and light/charging point inside. Toilet and shower area very, very good. Staff were great and very helpful and there was a good crowd passing through. Lots of cheap local food and chai stalls in the market outside. Good location, especially for the airport. Definitely the best value hostel I’ve stayed in in Mumbai and one of the best in India! I’ll be back for sure.

    We found it a bit overpriced. The common room was small and full of mosquitoes, but nice at the same time, with possibility to smoke because sort of open air. The area was not the best, not easy to find a restaurant, and quite outside Mumbai centre, but we chose it just because close to Bandra station and it was perfect for that.

    It was very clean and the staff was helpful. Internet was very good. Very safe. The dorm was quite big and with two lockers for each guest. The toilet/shower was by far the best of our trip in India.
