It's a nice quiet location in the network of smaller streets, not far from local restaurants. The owner Sheethal is an exceptional host, always looking out for her guests. Every morning there was home cooked breakfast which was tasty and an introduction to simple local foods. The rooms were comfortable and with a good size. There is also a kitchen and a common area which is a good place to hang out and meet other guests. You can really see the love and effort that has been put into this place and it really felt like home.

In whole my travel history i haven't seen such a clean property. Such a kind people are the hosts. We were late on our arrival, but they were waiting for us. Lakshmi is one very lovely person. To everyone who wants to visit Kerala and especially Cochi. I will highly recommend Prakrity homestay. And what is most amazing - the rooms don't have numbers but names. Like butterfly, sunshine, rainbow, ocean.

The owner was very friendly and sweet with me for my first days in South India. She upgraded my room and I had a spacious apartment instead :). She answered to all my questions and gave me good advices. The localisation is great, just 5 mns walk to the sea and little bit more for the sightseeing.

I had a great stay at Sajhome! The property is well located within a central area of Fort Kochi - just a few minuets walking distance from all the cool spots in the fort. The property owner was really helpful and provided recommendations for sightseeing and routh planning. The room was clean, had all the basic amenities needed, and the wifi was working well. Breakfast was excellent, with a choice between Indian or Continental breakfast style.

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.
