Leelu Homestay

400 years old dutch house, totally refiited, in the center of Kochi near all the paces to vist. The owner, ex cargoship captain, is very helpful and friendly, full of help and informations on everything you might need. Rooms are big, clean and comfortable. Wish we could have stayed longer and enjoyed more of Roy conversation

Nothing really

i divide my review to 2 parts. one for the room and one for the behavior of the owner . the room i eventually got ((after adding 500 Rupees). was fine. air-condition was working well . so did the wi.fi. location was also good. not far from the chinese fishing nets

i made resevation for a deluxe double room (and not a deluxe single room) because in bookng.com site it said that it has a view (garden, landmark or city). one day before my arrival i send a messege to the home stay ,asking for a room with the best view possible. the owner replied he "will do the needfull arrangements" but when i arrived he took me to a room with a window facing a wall (in other words with no view). when i said i cant stay in this room he took me to another room with a view of the street (to my knowledge there are no rooms facing a garden or landmark) but said this room is more expensive and i have to add 500 Rupees. i want to emphasize that i booked the most expensive room he has but he stil wanted me to add more money for the this room. since i dont stay in rooms without some view i added the money and took the room facing the street i later decided to extend my stay and wanted to book the room i was staying in in booking.com site. when i asked him which is the room in the site ( so i can make the booking in the site) he said that he already told booking.com that he doesn't allow them to give discounts to his guests and if i will make the booking through the site he will immediately canceal it. when i asked him again to show me which is the room i am staying in now he lost his temper and told me that he is tiered of my questions , that i am insulting him and that i should leave his house (the owner gave me a good impression when i arrived but this all changed when he lost his temper) . so i justi stayed for one night and left the next morning.

Perfect location..just 2 min walk from fort kochi.. beautiful cafes nearby.. hastle free stay...uncle aunty treat you like family...💜

Nothing

clean space and warm welcome

we booked a room for 3 and while the room description was a large double bed and 1 single bed, we had a double bed and a mattress on the floor. The mattress was so uncomfortable that we all slept on the double bed and the extra costs (taxes and bed!) ended up doubling the price. The owner withhold our passports using excuses for the whole day and wasn’t reachable by phone. When I told him to ask through booking.com for the extra charges since nothing was written anywhere in the platform, he threatened me with the police

Perfect location. Can't be any closer to the touristy area of Cochin. Very friendly owner living in the same house - a real homestay.

In the centre of Fort Kochi

Bigger towels and soap.

Very friendly and helpful owners, room was clean and spacious with own bathroom. It’s close to most of the interesting things in Fort Kochi and else the owner knows where you can rent a bicycle to visit the rest.

Behind the homestay there’s a hostel, from which you can hear the sounds at night. And also a device which makes noise all night long. Couldn’t sleep with the window open, unfortunately.
