The people were so friendly and helpful. Junaid, the manager, was there every night to take care of we two old ladies. Sheethal, the owner, was delightful, and mum, Usha, cooked a delicious traditional Kerala breakfast every morning. It had a real family feel.

The room was spotlessly clean and just a 10 min walk down to the main hub. Lakshmi was great helping us with any questions. Kitchen and communal area were well equipped with everything you need. Filtered water was a great bonus with a fridge to keep drinks cold. The rooms were a decent size as was the bathroom. Amazing value for money.

The hosts were amazing and very welcoming! It was a very smooth check in and check out process. We have to say that the breakfast was one of the most delicious ones we had. We also really liked the chickens on the property. We felt very comfortable and the location was amazing as everything in Fort Kochi was in walking distance. It felt like an amazing local experience and even though our stay was short it was very memorable to us and we would like to come back if we come back to Kochi :-)

Place was perfect and exactly how it's shown in the photos. I had a room in the new building with kettle, tea and all that was needed for a comfortable stay. Friendly host and the property is in a great location close to eateries and supermarket and lots of tourist attractions. Would certainly recommend staying here.

Gerard and his wife were great hosts. We arrived early in the morning, around 5am, and they were able to provide us with check in at that time, which was great. The homestay is very clean with comfortable beds.

The most lovely family run this beautiful homestay. Ours hosts could not have been more helpful: they booked a kathakali show for us, organised a taxi to Munnar, helped to change money. The facilities are typical of a home stay but maintained to a very high standard. It is very clean and comfortable. Consistent hot water. Good WiFi. In a safe area. We would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a simple, great value option.

Mr Roy was a great host. We travelled with 4 kids and all of us felt like our own home. Mr Roy helped us to arrange airport transport and auto (tuk tuk) for nearby movements. He also gave lots of suggestions for tour at Fort Cochin and nearby city. Breakfast was good. I am grateful to choose Leelu Homestay.

This homestay was a home away from home. I really enjoyed my time here, very calm and relaxing. Lakshmi is such a lovely host, very helpful and friendly, served delicious Keralan breakfast at a time to suit me. The room was very clean and comfortable with everything I needed, hot water, air conditioning and ceiling fan. Also filtered water available for drinking, plus tea and sugar to help yourself. If I return to Fort Kochi I will book again here.
