Brilliant and neat everything was.... keep up the work.... Jimmy/ Jos /Shanu

My grandparents, mom, and 2 other relatives stayed at Jimi's place and they were extremely pleased with their stay! There is absolutely nothing that is out of place. The place is clean, peaceful, modern, spacious, well equipped and perfect for both family and friendly stays. Jimi's mother is very welcoming and helpful. It is close to shops and markets. Overall, I strongly recommend this place and thank Jimi and his mother for attending my family so well. 5 star property!

My brother and I stayed for two nights and the apartment is very clean, modern and luxurious. AC in all rooms and fans - kitchen supplies were a somewhat limited. WiFi was a bit patchy but strong on the stairs as you enter. We did not meet the host Jimi and his representative did not speak much English so we did have a bit of a time finding our way around the area. For example the security system does not allow you to open the windows but that also makes it very quiet for sleeping:) we slept so well after a long journey!

Great and beautiful place. Highly recommended for a family.

Jimi's place it the most value for money residence. Very good for groups and families located in a good part of the city making safety not an issue. Totally recommending it.

Jimi's apartment was just perfect for us! a very clean apartment. Check-in was easy and the concierge is very very friendly! I will certainly come wiedermal ...

Jimi's apartment was in many ways perfect, and matched the description on the listing. Spacious, clean, and very well done interiors. Also, it overlooks a small garden making it perfect for your mornings. Additionally, the surroundings are serene and green, shutting down the city noise with ease. The caretaker was mostly around and available for any help. Would surely recommend this for anyone looking for a great stay in the middle of the city.

Value for money

All wonderful! Thanks!

We were very well, super large room, comfy bed, everything clean and tidy with fridge in the room, outside has a little to cook kitchen, we could use the washing machine to wash our clothes and the site is good in a quiet area but close to shops and hosts a delight, helpful and attentive. Would definitely recommend it !;)

We were very agusto all great, house, cleaning, bed treatment were so good we decided to extend my stay! Volveríamos..gracias certainly !!

HI , WE WERE A COUPLE WITH PARENTS VISITING KERELA. we were fortunate to have a stay @ balu james house. we were the first AIR BNB guest to their place. he was perfect and continuely in touch with maps and direction and food preparation help we need , with all positive results. the home was a dream home perfectly designed , very very spacious . away from city crowd in pleasent village atmosphere within reach to city by car in 2 to 5 min . blessed with coconut, banana, tomato plantation balu's parents were really helpfull in all ways from start to end of our stay, they helped us arrage a special vegeterian kerela dinner , breakfast and banana leaf lunch. Really seems like our own parents, MOM could talk in malyalam AND papa onveyed us her feelings and help in english. our city tour by city cab ner them was arranged with a eversmiling driver and ready to show complete city attitude. ola costed rs. 270 from ernakulam north station to balu james house . easy to find with all the videos and directions given to us . the house was modern, wifi was perfect , the tv room was great , bed room was cozy and spacious with new aircons, needs more indian hindi channels. the breakfast was tasty . kitchen was pefect and complete . over all a perfect place to stay from city crowd.

The hosts made us feel very welcome by arranging pick up locations with our driver in the local language. They also made us a delicious breakfast and showed us around the house and garden estate. The online listing was very accurate and matched the beauty of the house perfectly. Apart from the slightly difficult to reach locality, the surroundings of the house were very pleasant and complemented our stay well.

Excellant home stay. New property and kept extremely clean. The host was very helpful and always took an extra step to ensure our comfort. The stay is in vicinity to all major spots in the city. Perfect example of how a good stay should be. I highly recommend.

We had a great time!! This is a beautiful, modern, well equipped villa. Balu & his family are very nice and helpful and they are there to help in any way possible. The breakfasts are really good. Highly recommended!!

Attention to details, right from getting directions to every amenity provided, exceeded our expectations. Balu and his parents are the perfect host. It's secluded, private and lavishly spread out. Although 25kms away from the main Cochin hotspots, an uber or local transport is easily accessible. The property alone deserves a mention, look no further if your considering a stay in Cochin or Ernakulam. Special thanks to Balu's parents who were the perfect host and offered the required privacy and at the same time were very helpful and very humble.

The place is much beautiful than pictures and the overall experience was great. Thanks to Balu and his parents for making our stay a really comfortable trip.

I was travelling with my parents and 2 year old Daughter. We stayed at Balus Place for 2 nights, this is one of the best villas I have ever come across. the bungalow is nestled between an plantation. The stay was very comfortable and the place was super clean. The host Balu was very helpful right from the time of booking. we had a great stay and absolutely loved this place. Hope to be Back soon.

We stayed at 'The Heaven' for 3 nights and it was everything we hoped it would be. We booked the entire place and it is probably one of the best villas I have ever stayed at. It has a beautiful garden with many varieties of vegetables and we had lunch in huge banana leaves from the garden. The stay was very comfortable and home-like. The skylight in the living room made the villa look beautiful and its been our favourite part of the house. The hosts stay in Singapore and this huge estate is handled by their parents alone, and its needless to say that they are doing a wonderful job. The villa is located close to the highway and also near many backwaters. All in all, it was a wonderful experience to have stayed here!!!

On the first night there was some miscommunication and the place was double booked. However, Adis family was very accommodating and allowed us to stay with them for the night. The next night we stayed at this place and it was as described, a little difficult to find but the hosts were very nice and accommodating. Wifi was good and all amenities were provided. I would definitely recommend this place of you are staying in Cochi and especially if you are planning to visit Munnar as it is very close to the bus station.

I was in Kochi for work and was looking for a place to stay. I was looking for a place that was close to my office in Panampilly Nagar. So I shortlisted Adi's place. The positives Proximity. This place is close to every place. MG Road was 15 minutes walking. So if you want to indulge in shopping, that is just 15 minutes away. From malls to saree showrooms to artifacts to boat jetty to marine drive. Kadavanthra was 15 minutes walking. There tiny food joints around. Restaurants. Offices. A beautiful stretch of road to walk on. Panampilly Nagar is 5 minutes by Rikshaw If you want the best of restaurant in Kochi and experience fine dining, you could just take a rikshaw and experience the best restaurants in Kochi. Railway station: Five minutes by Rikshaw Bus stop: ten minutes walk. Highway: (via kadavanthra) It took me 20 minutes to reach vytilla junction from where you can get travel buses. Reminds me, there is Another interstate bus stop near Adi's place where you can get buses to Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai etc. Airport is about 30 + kms and takes around 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes (with traffic) The ambiance. The place is located in a residential area and is very quite despite being close to the every place you possibly would want to go to. (Woke up to the sounds of sparrows and birds chirping) It has a brilliant car parking space with a gate. The house is perfectly protected by mosquito nets so that is a blessing. The house is like a studio apartment. With two comfortable beds, a couch, a dining table with 6 chairs or was that 5. But hell yeah. And you have two wardrobes and a dressing table. Towels, shampoo, soap. A kitchen with fridge, gas stove, induction, cutleries. Pan. Utensils. Cups. Glass. Water filter. Damn. I could live here, if I was a bachelor. :) Now. The most important things. Clean bathroom/ toilet. Clean house. Wifi. Landline. Air conditioner. Wifi. Wifi. Wifi. Wifi. Wifi. Easy on the pocket. Yes. Adi and his family. They are some of the best people you will come across. Very polite, brilliant smiles, very warm and welcoming yet they talk to the point. Very helpful. Adi's parents, Mr and Mrs Iyer are one of the most friendly people I have met in Kochi. And while you interact with adi on the phone itself, you will understand how do portable the stay is going to be. The negatives. I won't call them negatives but rather goof ups from my end. I couldn't find the shampoo and soap because I didn't realise they were in the shelf. So maybe it should have been placed outside. Always. Always. Talk to the hosts and come to the place. Rather than trying to find the place on your own. Life is easier that way. So once again, Adi thank you for the amazing experience. Thanks to Mr and Mrs Iyer for being...

Aadi and his mother are always reachable and try to help you with any information you need to a comfortable homestay!

This unit was as expected. Small, cozy but big enough to spread out. Clean, throughout. Great location. Close to everything. Walk or cab. Good, food at good prices within a one block walk. Good hosts. Made sure we were welcomed. Highly recommended!

Aadi's place is a lovely stay. Aadi's mother was an amazing host, always just a phone call away for directions or any questions. The place is just as is listed on the site. The house is located very near to a row of shops (food, supermarket etc). It is also walking distance to the railway station, bus stand and many other places if you're willing to explore. A good experience of living in a kerala suburb.

Aadi was very quick with his response, and his mom was very helpful, and friendly. The place was very clean and quiet. The only issue we had was that (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) map wasnt able to pin the place to accuracy, and we had problems getting the cabs to find us. We had a pleasant stay and would definitely recommend others. Kanmani

Very good location... Aadi is very prompt to answer queries... His mother is very welcoming in her house.. House is very clean, easy for public transport. I got more than expected.

It was a memorable event and we really enjoyed the stay at Athithi Homes, Kochi, Kerala. The host Ms. Nikitha George was always there for all sorts of helps and it made our trip very enjoyable. She is very knowledgable about the city and the neighborhood and every one around know them. Though the place is in the middle of the city, it is quite, serene and comfortable. As regards the accommodation, the apartment is large, around 1500 sq. ft. with 3 large size Bed Rooms and attached baths, fully furnished kitchen, Dining area, sit out, etc. etc. Cleaning and maintenance was perfect every day. All kinds of home delivery foods available any time during day and night. Transportation, shopping, movie houses, etc. etc. are nearby or within a small ride. Altogether we enjoyed the stay and the host was very helpful and cooperative. They treated us just like family. We have no hesitation to recommend this property to any body looking for a comfortable large place in the Ernakulam city/suburb area at a reasonable price. Also this location is prestigious residential area next to Panampilly Nagar. For verifications please feel free contact us (PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN) or (EMAIL HIDDEN)

Fine hospitality. Location is close to Ernakulam south railway station. Received well. My wife was having pain in the ankle, Nikithas mother herself has taken us to the nearby hospital and was there till we could have consult the doctor. Great hosts.

Fantastic hosts. Nikitha and family were super accommodating. I think the pictures don't do justice to how good the place is. It was spick and span, very nicely done up and beautifully/centrally located. We had a very good time. They even cooked up some amazing pork curry when we said we wanted to try some :) Would definitely visit again. Thank you guys for having us over. See you all soon hopefully

It is a fabulous accommodation. Nikitha is such a friendly and helpful host. She recommended all the places as per our taste to eat and enjoy the town. Coming to the property its a beautiful 3bhk on the first floor in a peaceful area. It consists of three large bedrooms with attached bathrooms, a large kitchen and the attache with a washing machine. Availability of an RO, a toaster and a microwave helps you a great deal. Private and clean house you can enjoy with your family members without any interference always knowing that Nikitha is ever available in the background for any help. The house is very conveniently located near the railway station in Ernakulum to roam around Kochi. We were only there for a day as I had booked the place for a stopover in Kochi for a day before I move onto my vacation in the tranquil lands of Kerala. To my pleasant surprise, I found myself asking for more, much more as a day is just not enough to savour the delicious Kochi nor the comforts at Nikitha's home. Will definitely plan a longer trip the next time!!

Like Nikitha claims on A BnB, the guests are treated really well. Though it was Nikitha's Mom who received us and interacted with us, we were really at home and cozy. The day after being a strike, she was kind enough to prepare us food ( quite tasty too) and she ensured that she went the extra mile to make our stay comfortable. The location of the facility is really nice and peaceful and really accessible for persons who want to access the city. The apartment itself is really cozy and spacious. The hosts and their flexibility to accommodate the guest needs was what was striking. The location suits both kind of guests who might be looking for a peaceful getaway as well as who wants to be in the middle of hustles and bustles of the city. The only area of improvement that we could think of after some serious thinking was to improve the standard of toiletries and towels which wasn't really too bad but did not quite match up to the highly rated and experienced facility. Otherwise a stay well spent and enjoyed. Wish Nikitha and her Mom all the very best.

I stayed at Athithi Homes for a day. I was quite pleased with the look & feel and the arrangements of the apartment. It was quite spacious too. Felt really relaxed staying here as it was very cozy. Everything was all neat and tidy. They had all the facilities we wanted. One of the things that attracted me was their wonderful neighborhood and surroundings. Being in the middle of the city, the accessibility was another main attraction. I would defenitely recommend this place to all.

It was wonderful stay at Athiti homes. We had a family get together and were looking for an entire house for stay. It was a perfect choice for us. The house is very huge and very clean with 3 bedrooms and large living room and kichen area. The host Mr and Mrs George were very nice and helpful. Always enquired if we wanted food. This place is located in the cochin city but yet away from the noise of the city. Very good neighbourhood too. Will definitely come back to stay if in Cochin and also I recommend this place to everyone.

I cannot praise the host or the accommodation enough. Right from the start, Nikita and Pratheesh have been very helpful. The home is big, neat, child-friendly and in a very convenient location which made our trip to Ernakulam city very easy. Wonderful experience, shame we couldn't stay longer. Thanks guys.

I had great time spending a day in this beautiful villa . It was the Best suited location that relieved my travelling experience . Access to all means of transport and restaurants made they stay a better one . They provided me with all the facilities as mentioned by them . The best facility available was the swimming pool which was a huge relief in the scorching heat of cochin . The villas is also air conditioned which was huge relief . I had welcoming experience and thank my host for making my trip a memorable one . Hope to stay here when i visit cochin again .

Sneha was so kind to us despite our very late check in due to train delays. We highly recommend staying in her beautiful home. The room was exactly as described.

Staying at Sneha's place before my early flight was great. Close to airport. Clean room and bathroom, proper Air Con, strong wifi, and nice people who are willing to accommodate you in whatever you need. Sweet souls thank you for opening your home to me!

We really enjoyed our stay at the 'Suraj' house. Vasantha and her husband Mohan Kumar were very welcoming and hospitable to us. Vasantha's South Indian cooking was memorable for its' deliciousness! The area is relatively quite and the beautiful and mighty Periyar River flows calmly by about 2 blocks away. We look forward to coming again one day.

The hosts are charming and welcoming, and by prior arrangement, prepared a simple but really delicious vegetarian meal ( non-veg available too). The room was quiet and the bed the most comfortable we have slept in in India. The location is ideal for Cotchin Airport.

Sneha's place is a must stay! It was located in a beautiful and quiet area away from the hustle and bustle of the city. I went walking in the morning and it was beautiful to walk among the trees with few cars. Sneha and her family are very welcoming and friendly people. The room is absolutely beautiful, very spacious and the bed is so huge and comfy! hot water is readily available and it is a quiet place to sleep. I am very grateful to have stayed here. I was lucky to eat an Indian breakfast which was delicious also! Definitely stay here, it is definitely worth it!

Very nice and clean. Close to the airport. Uber operates there :). Delicious homecooked dinner. Wifi signal in the room is weak but downstairs it works perfectly :)

Really loved the place, the location is lovely, its quiet and far from the hustle bustle of city traffic. The best place for spending with friends and family. The house looks exactly how it is in the pictures. The owner has been accessible before and throughout the trip. Directions given were very precise and the hosts were really helpfull and polite. We will surely be looking forward to come back.

This was a wonderful place to stay, Sneha and her family were very kind, told me all sorts of places to go, and cooked wonderful meals for me, lunch and dinner! I would recommend this reservation four people arriving into Kochi! Sneha even helped me put a plan together for how where to travel to next and how best to get there! It is very close to the beautiful river and everyone in the neighborhood is really welcoming. Also they have a really sweet dog :) I felt very safe and comfortable! Thank you!!!

The location is perfect away from all the busy cochin city traffic. Tessy will give you directions. The bank adress in (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) maps takes you right to the house.You get the entire upper floor to yourself with seperate enterance. 6 beds fully furnished with kitchen. Ideal family stay for 6 people. Tessy and her family were great hosts. They even made us breakfasts in spite of our late notice in the middle of their sunday engagements. Will definetely stay here next time I am in the city
