Everything. The location was ideal for exploring Fort Kochi, we were a short walk or tuk tuk ride from nearly Everything. Saj was so helpful, gave us a map with all the sights and recommended restaurants (including newly opened Paragon which was amazing) and arranged for us to do a cooking class with Maria (highly recommend, it was fantastic) The rooms were comfortable, spacious and the bathroom was lovely (first hot shower we had in India!) The breakfast was also great - there is the option for a traditional Kerala breakfast or continental. The traditional breakfast changed every day and was an amazing way to taste the local cuisine. Can't believe how cheap it is for the service you get, it's amazing value for money.

    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.
