Every now and then a mid-range hotel earns its place on a shortlist by simply doing the basics very well, Indie Stays, BKC, in Bandra Kurla Complex, is one of those. Geographically speaking it's within an easy walk of the city centre, and the reasonable location rating in guest reviews backs that up. Rooms feel practical; the touches travellers mention most are reliable wi-fi, on-site parking and an in-house restaurant, and the comfort feedback has been mixed but acceptable. Pull the review pages apart and you find around 520 reviews, with a broadly positive consensus that's hard to engineer. The reputation reads as steady rather than spiking. Expect to pay something in the region of €11 a night, a strong-value entry on the board, especially when stacked against nearby alternatives. The honest read on Indie Stays, BKC is that it deserves a side-by-side look against the bigger Mumbai names rather than a headline of its own.
