The staff was very helpful even upon checking in at midnight they were helping setting up wifi upon checkin at 2am. The room is comfortable. What surprised me most is the breakfast as it had plenty of food to choose from including drinks like coffee the taste was excellent.

While we could not expect how the inside would look like when we arrived, it was a great value. We like about the rooftop venue where we have breakfast in morning breeze. All staffs are very friendly and kind. Recommended!

one of the cleanest hostels I’ve stayed in in India. There seemed to constantly be 3 members of cleaning staff ensuring the washrooms, bedrooms and communal areas were immaculate. The dorm beds were cosy and private with a curtain and ample storage for both big bag under bed and also smaller items within the bunk.

The location is not far from the airport, although it is a bit away from the city center, but it has a different flavor. Thanks to Ramesh's help, we were able to make our travel plan run smoothly. The staffs here are also very friendly and they seem to take good care of the place. The breakfast also nice and the fresh make chai (tea) was excellent. 😀

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.
