I have an test at NIT Calicut soon and it will be my first visit to Kozhikode.

I’d appreciate your advice on:

Budget-friendly, safe stays near campus for 3 people

Good vegetarian food options nearby

Best way to travel from Kozhikode Railway Station to NIT (bus vs cab/Rapido, cost & time)

How reliable Rapido is in Kozhikode

Language issue: I don’t know Malayalam—will English/Hindi work for travel and food?

Any tips for first-time visitors or interview day

Thanks in advance!
