Niyati - Boutique Stay

The initial welcome was very warm and helpful and the building itself is beautiful. It's also a fantastic location to explore most of Cochin by foot.

The room was incredibly basic and not very clean. The bathroom was essentially just a toilet with a shower stuck in the middle and we had no water in the morning. Their staff were using a shower next to our room and were very noisy in the morning and seemed to use up all the water! When we came in at night and woke up in the morning, the staff on duty did not really speak English which made sorting the water situation difficult!

Breakfasts were good and the location is excellent. Good cafes and restaurants near by.

We had originally booked a budget room with AC. When we arrived the AC was broken and the room was very very damp, so much so that it was cooler in the corridor than our room. We decided to upgrade to a deluxe double room which was on the other side of the building. Still damp but less so and the AC worked and there was hot water. Overall, I would recommend th deluxe rooms over the budget rooms. The WiFi was patchy.
