    Everything was nice. The rooms and the beds were nice and comfortable. one thing is there were no proper light facilities in the main room. Other than that everything was nice.

    overpriced

    madhushree s.group

    We were not given the separate room like they promised and the food in the bistro was also average. There was no space to keep things and the light was also very dim.

    1. hospitality was so good 2. ⁠room was comfortable to stay. i really had a good sleep 3. ⁠bathroom can be maintained more neatly 4. ⁠the room doesn’t have fan and light. there were only bed lights which was not easy. 5. ⁠to get ready, there could be a mirror in room. each time need to go to washroom to get ready. which was very uneasy. 6. ⁠manager was so polite and helpful. so as the staffs.

    I found this property through make my trip. Checked it reviews and get satisfied. The stay was amazing. The room were very clean, hygiene, spacious with separate cupboard facilities. We opted 4 dormitory room. The care takers were very cooperative and loving. It has a separate cafe in the ground floor for all but stay is only for females. We tried only some drinks from there and it was tasty they provide the necessary help like provided rental scooter, helping us to find a proper itenary etc. The main aishu, a love-able person. They have security service in night it was a perfect option for ladies who need to explore varkala

    Mellow Ladies Hostel and Bistro is pure perfection! From the cozy accommodations to the awesome food, it's a haven for travelers. I couldn't recommend it more. Breakfast is all day long, 7 minutes walk to the beach, shops, surf, yoga near. Very helpful staff, they give you a treatment like at the hotel, but with the hostel vibe!
