My original plan was to stay 2 nights in Fort Kochi, but I ended up staying 5 nights. I found the XK Homestay by pure chance, after roaming the streets for two hours and getting constantly dissapointed from the rediculous corelation between prices and quality.

Perfect location Perfect host Good clean rooms Would recommend without a doubt

There is a good strip of street restaurants close to the harbour around a 5min walk away. Recommended

Whenever you feel lonely, just come to Judy - she will make you feel like at home. Great place in nice location and the help tailored to your needs. Very clean and pleasant. I will not hesitate to come back over there. Thanks Judy!

Good rooms with comfortable beds. Great location. Tip - don't miss kashi art cafe for breakfast.
