Couple friendly safe accommodations you recommend in Varkala?

My gf and I are planning to visit Varkala in mid feb.

Looking for pocket friendly accommodations with private rooms and decent hospitality.

Also, this would be my first time visiting any place in Kerala. I do not know any Malayalam. I’ll try to learn a few phrases like “how much?” “how to reach here?” Etc before I come here but is English good enough?

I’m also trying to understand if there are any scams I should be aware of.

Also, I may need a bike for rent. Any places you’d suggest?

Please feel free to DM or comment here if you can help me.

Tysm in advance.
