Really friendly, helpful host. Beautiful property with a big bedroom, option of A/C for a small extra fee per day, laundry at a reasonable price. The property was impeccably clean and in a super location, only 5 minutes walk away from Grove beach (once you know the shortcut through Ali's restaurant).

My apartment included a well-equipped kitchen, fridge, microwave, gas hob, balcony, shower, toilet and AC. The apartment is located in a growing Indian residential area, so I also had the opportunity to get to know my Indian neighbors. I've had very good experiences. The manager of the apartment, Mr. Asko is a kind, honest, trustworthy and very considerate man. Even in difficult matters he was committed with advice and action. My apartment was very clean. I was provided with fresh drinking water every day. If someone asked me the question, would you go there again, I would spontaneously answer: yes. The apartment is also suitable for long-term stays. Thanks to the manager and his team for a long stay in a pleasant area. Indian restaurants and grocery stores are also within walking distance. I can highly recommend the Chalai market, including the fruit and vegetable market. Distance from the apartment about 3 KM. Via Rikscha.

"My recent stay at Tranquil Home in Trivandrum was truly delightful, especially given its proximity to the magnificent Padmanabhaswamy Temple. What made this stay exceptional was the owner's genuine care and positive attitude. He went above and beyond to accommodate us, making us feel incredibly welcome and comfortable. The warm hospitality added a special touch to our visit, and I highly recommend Tranquil Home to anyone seeking a peaceful and caring place to stay near the temple. A wonderful experience!"
