Perfect for a quiet get away from the traffic and sounds of the centre of Trivandrum; Vasudevam is a gem, just 20 minutes by an auto rickshaw from the main state transport bus stop, tucked away in a lane in Edugramom. The host, a gracious, perceptive and very helpful person understands what it takes to ensure a comfortable and home away from home for travelers. The rooms are comfortable, very well equipped, and include a living area and kitchenette and dining area, and very neat, clean and spacious bedrooms and an attached bath. If you wish to hire a car to travel around Trivandrum or visit places of trourist attraction over a hundred kilometeres away, you can hire a car from Vasudevam, and rest assured that the car is driven by a good and trusted driver. We stayed at Vasudevam only for two days but right from the time we stepped in, which was rather late, we felt very comfortable. The in-house chef prepares some delightful spreads. The only note of caution would be for those who wish to fully avoid chilly, then you must inform the host. For the money charged, Vasudevam offers compelling value, definitely a tough competition for the four-star and five-star hotels in the city. If life brings me back to Trivandrum, I would definitely choose to stay in Vasudevam, and I recommend it to others.
