The place was worst to stay at. Its full of crowd. During evening at terrace people use to drink and create noise .completely messy. in the room also linens are not cleaned everyday .bathroom stinks and water flow is very slow. Also AC in the room is not up to the mark. All together its a bad experience. On informing the issues to hotel staff they don't take any action. very poor staying experience

    5/5

    It was a wonderful stay here. It is situated at a prime location with just 5 minutes walk to Gateway of India and the Taj Mahal Hotel. The staff members are very cordial, soft spoken, and cooperative. The common space is a cherry on top of every other amenities. The complimentary pantry comes in handy at wee hours. Overall my experience was awesome, and I'll be surely choosing a stay here even on my next visit.

  • Saloni Nigam
    5/5

    Whenever I visit mumbai, this is my only go-to option... located in the heart of the city, this hostel is a big multi-floor property with high ceilings and a stunning aesthetic staircase... dorms with personal key card entry gives full safety. The best part is their spacious common area (separate from the smoking zone) and that they actually have a terrace unlike most other matchbox-sized hostels.

  • Aditi Vishwakarma
    5/5

    It was my first time stay at a hostel and the concept has fully convinced me now to take it up for all my trips. The place was really beautiful. It was clean and maintained everyday by the staff. Even the staff was really helpful. I got to interact with many people including people from outside India. I would like to thank backpackers panda for making my stay at Mumbai so memorable.

  • Rhythm Sharma
    5/5

    everything always great, except the security guard behaviours. he was creepy human and really traumatising. not a nice person to keep as a security guard, instead of making someone safe, he would instead do a wrong act. especially girls! else owner and the reception people were amazing . i had my ferry to catch so i couldn’t tell them about his act, else i would definitely have.

  • Shuhaib Sherief
    5/5

    Highly recommend! Getting a stay at one of the best locations in mumbai at this price range is just wonderful. The staff is great, rooms are neat and clean, and the vibe is good. Honestly there is nothing more that one needs from a stay for this rate in mumbai.

  • Vishnu Radhakrishnan
    5/5

    Stay was great. The location was amazing and was only a couple kilometers away from major landmarks as well as being right next to a bus stop. Staff was extremely helpful and even allowed for early check-in. Would recommend to anyone considering staying here!
