the hostel is just like any other hostel ,don't expect extraordinary things. the place is located at a prime location in varkala and its value for money also, perfect for budget travelling. since I was solo travelling, as a woman I didn't faced any issues safety wise, even in mixed dorm. bathroom is a challange, they had 2 bathrooms only one for each floor so that was constraint , and mirror wasn't available in the room rather outside of room and the balcony was pretty good, overall it's good for budget travelling

Terrible Stay

aatif g.group

No fans, shared rooms had no security things. People were smoking openly inside the room. Not at all recommended if there is any girl in the group. Caretaker smoking with others in the shared room. Washroom limited and insufficient for a group. No hygiene. No security. No anemeties. Not Safe.

Excellent Room and Bed facility. Reading light wasn't working that can be repaired. Could have organized an evening connecting events within the hostel premises which I missed a lot, when the vibe was very low. other than that, for the money you pay for the bed, you get a lot of amenities and a calm and lovely environment
