Location ans the price are the only reasons to stay there and if no other availability in Fort Kochi
Pros:

Basic room so price was in accordance. Good location to access the main points of interests and very good vegetarian restaurant named Prakruthi Eco World nearby.

Cons:

A/C is subject to extra INR 250 per night. The bathroom sink (wash basin) is outside the room. Every time you use the toilet you have to go out of the room same for brushing your teeth. Presence of insects (ants) crawling along the wall and in the 2 single beds and I didn’t bring any food in the room. Lack of cleaning

Feels like home, cozy room in Fort Kochi
Pros:

Wonderful homestay in Fort Kochi, walking distance to all touristic places.
The owner was very kind and always looking after us. It felt like home for us with our family.
He arranged backwaters tour ,yoga and Kathakali show and taxi for airport.
All the activities were great fun and good value for money.
In addition, they prepared a traditional breakfast of the area, and it was delicious.
I totally recommend this homestay, I could go back in a future occasion.
Thank you for everything!!

Cons:

The double bed is a bit small, but it's ok.
We should have chosen the twin beds.
