Yeah it was OK and did the job for 1 night. Overpriced and the front area needs a good cleaning - things were scattered everywhere, not the most pleasant thing to see when you're first checking into a place. The rooms were clean though and bathrooms were the same. Food is OK if you're desperate, but you are better off... More

The hostel looks nice and occupies a pleasant, cosy residence with lots of plants. The staff could be lot more helpful though. For some reason they wanted to charge us RS500 more for the backwaters tour (even though we have booked in advance) than regular price offered to newly-arrived customers (Rs 6500). After some arguing they agreed to charge us... More

great place to stay. Very good location in the center of Alleppey. The staff is very friendly and taking care of guests any time. The only "con" is they do not serve lunch or dinner anymore. Only breakfast (very tastefull by the way). The courtyard and common areas are very cozy. And beds and pillows are really comfortable !!!

This place was recommended in the Lonely planet and it was fine. Our little hut room had AC, no hot water (it probably didn't say it did, I forgot to check, so I can't really complain about this) and it was set back k enough from the pretty main road we are in for it to be quiet, and I... More

Stayed just one night in December 2012. We got an AC room for 1200 Rupees and were happy with that (there was obviously no tariff, so do negotiate on the room price if you're not happy with it). Our room had two beds put together with a mosquito net over, giving us a good nights sleep. The room was fairly... More

We are a group of family stayed here in off season.The rooms are very clean with mosquito net.There is a nice garden and a restaurant.The staff are kind and helpful.We also booked house boat with them.That trip is memmorable trip.Thanks for all in Gowri residence.And i recommend this place for all.

Wonderful place to stay if you are looking for an non expensive accommodation. Friendly atmosphere and well kept, spacious rooms inside a tropical garden + a very nice restaurant too :) I recommend this place to all of you.
