As a hosteller of IIT Bombay, you can avail the following facilities

• Rooms: The newly built H16/H15 has amazing facilities and big rooms. But the older hostels are just average
• Network: You will have 24*7 access to Wi-Fi in your hostel and throughout the campus.
• Sports: There are a number of sports facilities for sports freaks at IIT Bombay like dancing, swimming, football, basketball, running, gym, and much more.

My brother had the pleasure of staying at hostels 9, 16, and now 13 in chronological order. However, he claimed not one hostel had the complete facilities one expects in a hostel. I have described each hostel in a few pointers 

Hostel 9

• Extremely small room difficult for even 2 people to share
• The best food in the entire institute is served in this hostel
• It has many facilities like a pool, a small footer field, basketball court, table tennis and makes your leisure time great 

Hostel 16

• This hostel has some of the best rooms in the entire institute. The rooms are double occupancy but can easily be shared by more people.
• If you are lucky enough to be allotted the 6th floor or above, you can get a spectacular view of Hiranandani.
• The food is not very good

Hostel 13

• The room is usually for PG or DD students
• The rooms are single occupancy and are decked with decent facilities 
• The food in the Mess is neither too good nor too bad.
• The hostel has a wide range of extracurricular facilities. There is a TV room that can accommodate around 70–80 people. 
• This hostel is most coveted because of the spectacular view of the Powai lake and the Hiranandani it offers.

If you are considering staying at MKM Sanghavi hostel at NMIMS Mumbai, here are some important things you should know based on personal experience:

• Food: The mess facility is available, but it can be expensive at Rs 75 per thali. It is open from around 7:30 am to 10 pm, but breakfast is often not served on time. If you come back from college after 10 pm, you will need to order food from outside. Sharing a thali can be a good way to save money.
• Washing: There is a washing machine area on the first floor with around 7-8 machines, but only half of them work. With so many girls and only a few working machines, it can be challenging to wash your clothes. MBA students have erratic schedules, and they may not be able to use the washing machine when they want to.
• Water: There is a machine on every floor, but some girls prefer to buy their own Bisleri water because they have heard rumors of worms in the water from the machines. You only get hot water in your bathroom for a limited time each day, and it can take a while to get hot water. This can be inconvenient when you are busy with deadlines.
• Fridge: There is a fridge on every floor, and you can label your milk tetra packs with your name. If there is no fridge on your floor, you can ask the authorities to provide one.
• Curfew: The curfew is 11 pm, but you can enter later if you are coming back from college or placements. However, once you are in the hostel, you cannot leave after 11 pm. If you need to stay in the library to study, they will not let you out after curfew.
• Rooms: The rooms are spacious, with most being triple sharing and a few twin-sharing. The beds are single beds with box beds, and you get a study table and cupboard. Storage space is decent, but lighting is low, so many people use table lamps in addition to the light at the study table.
• Bathrooms: The bathrooms have been designed well, with three separate areas for the bath, toilet, and wash basin. Lighting is low, though, and some plug points may not work.
• Open drain: The biggest disadvantage of the hostel is the open drain behind the building, which leads to a lot of mosquitoes. The common area on each floor overlooks the drain, and some rooms have balconies that open to the drain.

Firstly, IMS Noida does not have its own boys' hostel and is affiliated with Sanskriti Awaas Boys Hostel. This hostel is at a distance of 5-6km from the main campus. Some other highlights of this hostel are

• The overall hostel facility is extremely poor
• The amenities are of substandard quality
• Hard water is provided and causes a lot of problems
• The two-bedroom rooms are decent but the triple bedrooms are average

Overall the poor hostel facilities might hinder your studies and bring down your performance as a whole. So I would recommend you to find PGs or flats in Indrapuram, Ghaziabad.

You have the option of staying in the girls' hostel at the Mumbai University Campus in Kalina. A classmate of yours moved there in the second semester and reported having a positive experience. Here are some of its key features:

• You can easily access the university canteen which is located just a minute away from the hostel.
• The campus itself is well-maintained with plenty of green spaces and your hostel is located near the main gate.
• You can take a shared rickshaw to Santacruz Station, which is just a 5-8 minute ride away. From Santacruz to Churchgate, you can travel by train in approximately 40 minutes. Additionally, it is a 5-minute walk or a 2-minute taxi ride from the station to the college. Thus, you can expect an hour of travel time from the hostel to JBIMS.
• Each person is assigned their own room and there is no need for sharing.
• The Business District Centre (BKC) is located just 10 minutes away from the university.
• You can visit the American Library, which is located 15 minutes away, and study for hours while accessing their vast collection of books for free.

This information should be useful for you in making a decision. There is also another Diamond Awa hostel, but it is only available to students with a direct relative in the army. For more information on this hostel, it is recommended that you conduct a search on Google.

Commenting on the taste of food is subjective and totally depends on one’s taste buds. While some may enjoy a certain dish others may dislike it. So for the definite answer, you will have to personally taste the food to know if it’s good or not.

The food is provided through a 4-meal per day program including breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner. They keep changing the variety of food offered so as to meet the tastes of everyone in general. 

There are 2 Mess facilities at IBS Hyderabad one is close to the boy's hostel while one is closer to the girl's hostel. You can get enrolled in any one of your choices at your convenience.

There are gingers on the ground floor of hostels to cater to your midnight cravings and birthday parties.

Overall the food served at IBS Hyderabad is decent, hygienic, and healthy and is better than many other colleges.
