Hello all I WARN you to stay away from Cowies! The hostel has incredibly rude unhelpful staff that do nothing to help accommodate guests sadly. The bed bug problem has gotten to a point it’s so bad you itch at night. The hygiene is zero the bathrooms are horrible and no hot water. The value is awful for the cost.

Fantastic hostel in Mumbai - excellent location, clean rooms and loads of bathrooms. Met some great people here. Only improvement would be to sell a few beers on the amazing roof tops!
