Priya was an excellent host and her staff were extremely friendly. The location was next to a fishing village but overall felt safe. A few streets down you get all the high end restaurants and bars. People staying at the hostel were all friendly and social.

Great location( easy access to rail way ), clean, and is in the middle of a vegetable and fruit market. We have already booked a private room and it was super tidy, spacious and had fresh air provided by an AC. The staff was good, kind, and very helpful. Proper free water and sanitary packages were available in the room. We highly recommend it.

My stay at Locomo was amazing ! Everything was super clean and the staff was welcoming and helpful from beginning to start. The breakfast was one of the best I’ve had so far in India and there’s even a working area, which I really liked. The location is also really good, it’s in one of the best areas in Mumbai, close to the „Metro“, so you can reach almost everything pretty fast. Some reviews say that the building is quite old and they are somehow right, but everything is super clean, there are no weird smells or anything. It’s just the walls that are not in the best condition, but that didn’t bother me at all.

All hostels in Mumbai

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.
