hostales en Kerala, India

The location of the hotel is quite convenient, right beside the national highway. Room was clean. Being a rather old property, some renovation of fixtures and fittings is required.

I stay here on 21st September 2022, I choose this property because its location. Location is good, very near to Maharaja college Metro, marine drive, market and ERNAKULAM south ( jn) railway station. Dormitory room is small and way of toilet through dormitory bed area. Toilets are small. In bath only shower, no bucket, size of bathroom is very small.

Inn temple town really surprised us with their hospitality, location and their ambient rooms, we took their family room which was really spacious and could house 4 adults easily, the room had all the necessary amenities including large cupboards for storage, had a balcony and offered a good view, the toilet came stocked with all the necessary toiletries. They don't have an in house restaurant but it is surrounded by many food joints, however , small requirements like morning tea/coffee are entertained and will be delivered to your room, they have power back up and the rooms are really ambient and clean, the staff is really polite and accomodating. Car parking is not vast but ample, you can trust Google maps to lead you to the correct location. The Inn is conveniently located between Guruvayoor and Mamiyoor temples and both are within walking distance. I booked the room via Make my trip, you can also book directly via telephone.

I think it's important to transcend some of the BS I've seen and read regarding the hostel. Firstly, it looks incredible in the images on various booking sites. Not quite so in real life. It all actually looks pretty drab and tired. The room I booked wasn't great (dusty, loads of hair clogged in the basin, gunk over the mirror, dust and dirt on the lightbulbs), and I couldn't even get a warm shower. The AC didn't work. On arrival there was no-one at the desk, just a sign suggesting an online check-in, but I couldn't receive the OTP, therefore couldn't check in, and had to wait 20 minutes for someone to arrive. I didn't complain. I generally don't complain. On reflection, maybe I should have. There are past reviews from 6+ months ago that mention hair/dust/dirt, and replies from Zostel that the issues will be addressed though, cleary, they haven't. Staff - nice, though could be more informative. My experience doesn't quite reflect the experiences that some others mention. I didn't get any advice, friendly chat etc etc Rooms - not great, in my opinion. Dirty. Tired. Location - pretty much everything Fort Kochi has to offer is within walking distance, or a short tuk tuk ride. Rooms: 2/5 | Service: 2/5 | Location: 3/5

Good trip with good stay. Enjoyed a lot. Thanks for all the help and service. Overall great. I will recommend to my friends

Cleanest accomodation so far in India! Good shower pressure, good bed, did I mention clean? Water available to fill your water bottle… Was lucky to have the room entirely for myself for one night as no other guest showed, and when someone did it was still comfortable even if he was on the top bed as mine. Perhaps a bit excesively cold when AC and fan are running, but hey that’s Asia’s usual when staying at a hostel. You come to Asia to escape the cold and end up sleeping with a blanket. And getting horrible sore throats, and dryness from excesive AC. Staff was correct and helpful. Location was unbeatable! Will stay again in December.

Need to improve on toiletries and bedsheet

Very bad experience. The reception staff and property manager is rude and they talk without even basic decency. We had booked rooms for two days. Two people had booked dorm for two days. I had booked Dorm for day one and private room for day two. It was specifically checked in the reception whether we need to check in separately for each day and it was informed it was not necessary. It was upon their insistence, kayaking was arranged and the timing was 6.30 to 9.30 AM. The receptionist had called me around 9.45 and I told him we are on the way and will be back in some 30 minutes. By the time we get back to the hotel, it was around 10.20 since the travelling time is more than 30 mins. My luggages were inside the dorm and I was dripping wet due to kayaking. They didn’t permit me inside the room to even take my luggage and change clothes harping that check out ought to have been done by 10 AM and I cannot use the bathroom in the dorm even though the other people in the dorm is my own friends. I just requested for 15 minutes and the same was nonchalantly refused. The reception manager also said I should use the common bathroom (unisex) which I was not comfortable. Since we were from Coimbatore, the receptionist made some lure comments in Hindi. Since one of my friends know Hindi, we argued back. It is noteworthy the dorm was free and my friends said they all will wait outside and I needed only 15 minutes to change. They harped on technicalities and made me wait in way dress for almost 1.5 hours, with no remorse or regret. They didn’t even try to provide early check in even at-least payment of additional cost. Solo women travellers, BEWARE. And also non-Hindi speaking people, have ears to what comments they are making. I am also gonna initiate appropriate action against them. Highly DO NOT RECOMMEND. Worst experience.
