My wife and I have been regular visitors to the Morjim-Ashvem-Mandrem belt for years. Babu has been on our bucket list but somehow it just didn't work out until this visit in November 2024.
The AC room is fantastic and well furnished. The bed and pillows are some of the best I have ever encountered in any hotel. Sleep quality is amazing. The room could do with a luggage rack though. We ended up putting our suitcases on the floor. Small niggle but worth addressing. There's no television, though I did see wiring for cable TV but honestly TV in Goa seems like a waste of time in my opinion.
The closet is in the bathroom which is quite nice and chic in a bohemian sort of way. Adding an exhaust fan would be a good idea. Water pressure is low but manageable. Toiletries do not include toothbrushes and toothpaste. We prefer to use our own so that didn't bother us. The liquid soap, shampoo and hand wash is of excellent quality though.
Drinking water in the rooms is provided in glass bottles which are refilled on request so that's a nice touch. One small step towards sustainable living. We didn't order any bottled water throughout our stay.
Coming to the restaurant, food is very tasty and freshly prepared but portion sizes are quite small. Complimentary breakfast is adequate and includes brewed, not instant coffee; so that is a very big plus.
The restaurant staff is efficient and friendly but unintrusive. Personally I like it that way. Housekeeping is very good. The entire property is very clean and uncluttered.
