this is by far the best accommodation in india we've ever experienced within a budget. outstanding in every detail and aspect: squicky cleanliness, friendly owner (ralph, nandi so much!), location (in a quite area of fort cochin, walking distance to santa cruz, st francis etc.), facilities. i would give 11 out of 10 if possible...

we didn't like that our stay was very short...

This homestay is very close to the beach, the charming cafes, and many top tourist sights. Safe residential area which is well lit at night. The room itself was spacious, with a desk, cupboard, and room for my yoga mat. Large bathroom as well with ample hot water. Everything was clean and spotless. Quiet at night. All of it very well cared for by the hosts, who were very helpful in arranging my taxis - even at 2:30am for an early flight.

No notes!

Excellent host and hospitality. Ralph was incredibly helpful. Calm atmosphere, great breakfast, powerful fan, spacious, good location. Lovely common areas. Ralph easily arranges different activities and helps with planning future trips.

Nothing.

There was no breakfast. The location is good.

The room I chose offered refrigerator, balcony view or terrace in the listing. The host informed that the balcony is a shared space. The refrigerator wasn't working. All restaurants are in the walking distance of 400-500m from the accomodation.
