Da Java 18 hostel and Homestay Chikmagalur

I stayed here for four days during my visit to Chikkamagaluru, and overall, I had a wonderful experience. When I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by Hemant, who was extremely friendly and helpful. The check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. The property is located a little away from the city centre, but it’s not too far and is still quite convenient. You can easily order food through Zomato or Swiggy, and Blinkit delivery is available as well. There’s a lovely common area that is nicely decorated and makes for a great place to relax and spend some time. The bathrooms, however, could be maintained a little better in terms of cleanliness. Overall, it was a comfortable and pleasant stay. I really enjoyed my time here and would be happy to stay again on my next visit to Chikkamagaluru!

One small improvement I would suggest is regarding drinking water. Currently, guests need to go to the common area to refill their bottles, where a water container is kept near the entrance. It would be more convenient to have a water purifier or place the water container somewhere inside the property rather than right next to the entry gate.

It was a small room. A very basic place. You cannot rest or chill here. Can be used as hostel while travelling.
