Priya was an excellent host and her staff were extremely friendly. The location was next to a fishing village but overall felt safe. A few streets down you get all the high end restaurants and bars. People staying at the hostel were all friendly and social.

the location and cleanliness is absolutely sparking. Loved the retro aesthetics inside especially the personalized detailing's. Rooms are not so big I guess that's why they call it mini, but all dorms have a washroom with balcony which the small rooms didn't matter. Favorite was the open rooftop with the air-conditioned common area. There is literally everything nearby starting from multiple food options to medical and laundry, everything is legit next door.

Clean dorm, very good location, very close to the airport and next to a metro station (WEH). The BEST; the comfort and privacy the beds with curtains provide you. The WORSE; try to use the toilet facilites is a nightmare since always busy, at least in my stay. But without any doubt The best part of this accommodation is the STAFF, always smily and willingly to help you at all times, special mention to the girl (sorry never asked her name) SHE IS THE GREATEST ONE EVER. Thank you very much!!!

Great location close to the airport and near lively areas like Bandra, with plenty of local food options nearby. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The rooftop was awesome with nice views and a great place to chill, but beware of mosquitoes up there. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Backpacker Cowies

Colaba, Mumbai

As you visit Mumbai, how about get a taste of old Bombay as well? Nestled in a quiet bylane of Colaba- one of Mumbai’s oldest localities and a stone throw away from its heritage sites like The Gateway...

Very good location, near to most of the attractions around Colaba. Staffs are super helpful, you can book tours, buy simcard, exchange money, so very convenient for those just came to India. Room's kept clean. Price might be not as cheap as some other parts of india but I think it's the best value you can find 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.

    This is simply the best hostel I have been to in India. It is amazing! Very helpful stuff, they literally helped me with everything, with all the questions I had. Very polite and professional. There was no people who would drink alcohol or party, which is a huge plus. Nobody bothered me through my stay, very safe. I am traveling alone as a female so it is important for me. Terrace is simply amazing, I spend a lot of time there. The rooms were clean, very comfortable bed. I recommend it 100%

    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.
