Great location and services. Management keeps on top of things so there's no silly or loud behaviour in the dorms. Great stay if you'd like to check out Mumbai for a few days and reasonably priced. Air cons in the rooms are at full power during the night giving you a cosy sleep. Tnx so much

This place was a really great find for a good value for money private room. We found the place to have really great facilities and the room was clean and cosy, the bathroom had really hot water which was great after travelling many hours from the UK. The staff were really helpful and loaned us a charger as we had forgotten ours! Breakfast was really good and the beds were really comfortable witg a good range of pillows. Really liked the location as it was easy to get to Andheri, Bandra and Juhu Beach,the airport and the train station! It was the perfect place for my partners first visit to India and we would definitely stay here again!

The entire hostel is very homey and located in a good location. The plan was to stay 4 nights but I found myself not being able to resist staying a few extra days. The rooms are super clean and tidied up daily together with the washrooms. It has common areas too with lots of comfy chairs and vibey ambiance both indoors and outside. A definite budget friendly value for money experience and I don’t regret making the choice. The staffs are very friendly and readily available to assist you on your needs. I would highly recommend staying here and will definitely return. It was an absolute vibe and very chill!

It is very difficult to find such Hostel in Mumbai. I felt welcomed from the first second I entered the doors, downstairs you have a reception and seating area with many plants. Super nice style of the decor. Upstairs are the rooms, I booked a female dorm with 8 beds and I loved it. Spacious Room, Beds with Curtains and everything you need. Highlight were as well the own Bathroom with 2 shower cabins, big and spotless clean!! Amenities like towels, mosquito plugs, little kitchen to use. All of the staff and as well the owner were so friendly and they make everything to have you feel good in their space. Thank you for the stay and vibes and the lovely chat on my last day. I can highly recommend this place for anyone and I am back for sure whenever I am 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.

    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.
