Behaviour of owner was good. But some facilities viz. breakfast as mentioned in the advertisement was not provided.
I was worried about turning up at two in the morning after my train from Madurai was delayed, especially as the booking confirmation said check-in was until 10 pm. But luckily two Spanish women flying from Delhi arrived at the same time, so we only had to rouse the friendly manager-owner once. The place is the best I have stayed in the country since arriving more than four weeks ago: clean, cheap, friendly, breakfast included
Easy to find, walking distance to restaurants & bus stop. Really enjoyed my stay and great value indeed. What a lovely, warm, and hospitable family! Homemade breakfast in the morning was a great start. Room was decent size and very clean! Hot water shower was powerful. The host family was such nice people. Love the granny especially! Hate that the dogs were barking so loud into the wee hours at night... but maybe just those few days I was there. I think 2 day stay is sufficient as there’s not really much to do in Fort Kochi.
Perfectly located in the centre of Fort Kochi (but off the main road), all the sights are within a short walking distance. Mr Abu and his son were very helpful in suggesting where to go for the New Year's Eve celebrations, breakfast was filling and the water was always hot. I very much recommend staying here!
All the staff are particularly nice, helpful and friendly.
Mr Aboo Taris goes out of his way to suggest activities and help you plan them. Activities which go beyond the guide book. There were some particular places I wanted to visit, that others may not be interested in, and he made it possible.
He arranged airport transportation/pickup which was helpful for me since I was travelling by myself. Also he knows and can recommend other good auto and car drivers.
It is a place to feel relaxed and comfortable.
Shrumps (sorry, not sure about spelling) and Taris were great hosts, offering advice and organised a great tour of the Backwaters for us. They would go out of their way to be as helpful as possible and go the extra mile- highly recommend staying at Honolulu Home for excellent service.
As with everywhere we've stayed in India, cleanliness is not top priority but sheets were clean and by India standards the room was certainly clean.
The owner and his family were super friendly. We enjoyed trying both the Western and Indian style breakfasts. Aboo was most helpful and had some useful tips and options for getting around. Tours and theatre tickets could also be purchased from him which was quite convenient. We enjoyed meeting other travellers over breakfast.
Our room was comfortable with a lovely balcony and the air conditioner and fan both worked efficiently. Cold showers in a hot climate is Ok but the Honolulu will be even better when the new solar powered hot water system is installed.
For female travellers and families Kochi Fort had a safe friendly feel and security at the Honolulu was excellent.

Nice cosy homestay with very helpful owner
We had a nice time here. The rooms are clean, though a bit spartan. The ac worked fine. The tv was a bit of a problem. We were charmed by the pleasant and helpful nature of the owner. He helped us a lot. The wifi was decent and the complimentary breakfast was good.
We stayed for 3 weeks the second time to Fort Kochi. It was a great base to come back to after local and interstate trips. This homestay is in a great position, centrally located among indian homes. We walked (10 min)to Princess St (major tourist centre) and the ferry pier. There is an auto stand at end of the street and the bus stops at each end if you don't want to walk. The front balcony mosquito proof room and ensuite was clean and had the basic comforts. Weekly housekeeping. The internet and hot water had ups and downs during our 3 wk stay.

Friendly atmosphere
Frendly atmosphere and staff. We were greeted with a friendly welcome even at 2am. Centraly located within easy walking distance to everything you want to see and do in Fort Cochin. We felt safe and secure in our mosquito proof room with a nice breeze coming in from the balcony. This is not a fancy hotel - just down to earth accommodation for a reasonable price.
Great place to stay. Delicious breakfast that changed every day. Very accommodating family that can offer all kinds of insight to the area and travel options. It really really hot and humid but I can't fault them for that ;)

The hotel location is far away from Ernakulam, Hotel is awesome and the stay was good
From the day we joined Honolulu....we were really like their guests. Mr Aboo consider each and everyone who comes to honolulu as their guest and treat them like anything....the tlrooms were spotless and the hospitality was tremendous. Wifi is free of cost and has a high speed connection. Mr Aboo and his son Taris really makes your stay enjoyable and honolulu provides you a home away from your home.....
Its a best place to stay.you would feel like a home.The owner of the hotel would help you for each and everything and mainly he would guide you for the place to be visited near by.
I WAS OVER ALL HAPPY DURING THE STAY.
Thank you,
Regards,
Samarjit..
We stayed at this place for 3 nights. Its location is in Fort Cochin, the tourist hub in Kochi. All the major tourist landmarks of Kochi are located a small walk or a cycle ride away. The hosts are really courteous and very helpful. What you get here is exactly what they promise during online booking. All in all a value for money place.
Dirty room and smelly bathroom. Mr. Abo the owner gave me a non A/C room and insisted that I did not pay for A/C. Only after I presented my online booking did he give me the remote controll!. There are plenty of better home stays at half his price. Must check out rooms and bathrooms before you checkin.
3 night, 4 days of relax and calm in Kochi with clear careful advise from Mr Aboo. We enjoyed a full experience of local sites, food and entertainment.
