    Poor Hotel And Pictures Not True As Shown In The App

    manthan p.group

    I stayed at this property and there were several issues: • The main door doesn’t have a proper lock—just a decorative knob. • The bathroom is poorly maintained and shabby; the basin gets extremely hot, which is dangerous. • The electrical board lacks proper safety outlets, and the fan speed regulator is missing. • There are no curtains or privacy measures in the room. • When we first entered, the room had a very strong and unpleasant odor. Overall, the stay was uncomfortable and below expectations. Needs serious improvement in safety, hygiene, and basic amenities.

    Terrible Stay

    aiman s.

    We had booked a Deluxe Queen Size Bed Room at Madpackers North Goa for two nights. We are two solo female travellers visiting Goa for the first time. We trusted your property and made all our plans based on the photos and information provided However, on arrival, we were completely shocked and disappointed to find that the room allotted to us was nothing like what was shown online. There was no cupboard, the room was in poor condition, the glass had visible stains, and the commode seat was yellow and unhygienic. This is absolutely unacceptable. To make matters worse, when we raised our concern, the receptionist simply told us to “get a refund” since the room we booked wasn’t available. What kind of service is this? It was a weekend, and because of this last-minute shock, we were unable to find any other suitable accommodation nearby. We were forced to stay one night in that room purely out of necessity because we obviously couldn’t be homeless in an unknown city. Our travel plans got disrupted, and the entire experience was extremely stressful and disappointing. We demand a full refund of the amount paid, as the accommodation provided was not what we booked, not what was shown, and not what we paid for. Staying there for one night was not our choice it was a compulsion due to lack of alternatives.

    Average Stay

    We booked a stay for 7 people for 2 nights. The beds in the dorm were clean, but the room itself wasn’t very tidy. There was also a water leak from the AC inside the room, which was a bit inconvenient. The bathroom was somewhat clean, though it could have been better. One night there was no water, but the staff resolved the issue quickly, which we appreciated. The outside area was peaceful and pleasant, making it a nice place to relax. Overall, an average stay with some good points and a few areas that need improvement.

    Pathetic space! Arrogant senior staffs

    jibin a.group

    Absolutely Horrible Experience! We were welcomed with a pathetic room, toilets and dirty towels! 18 hours without water supply! Can understand the situation and didn't respond until the arrogant staff was reluctant in providing the rooms in their other block! They said to use that block toilets but cant shift the rooms. Only good thing was the other junior staff Zaya and Sangh who were very friendly and treated us with love and respect.

    Bare minimum. Not worth the money.

    sushree j.group

    We got a family suite and the room ended before it could begin. Not a space for 4 people, clearly. We paid and we were not even given a soap. There was only one handwash in the washroom. That's it. Their cleanliness game is zero. Space is dilapidated. The ply of the bunkbed is swollen and to breaking in near future. The mentioned facilities on the were not provided, e.g. - hair dryer. The PICTURES AND THE ACTUAL CONDITION OF THE PLACE IS HELLA DIFFERENT.

    Very poor maintenance

    jasmine s.family

    I mean the rooms were decent, but it has nothing as it shows in the page... the bar is almost all the time empty.. the pool is dirty we couldn't even go there. Bathrooms are smelly very smelly, no room services (cleaning), electricity goes out anytime, we personally experienced 3 light out in a single day. Bar has no food not much drinks.. receptionist tho was polite and helpful.. but it doesn't matter the rooms were beyond everything we were disappointed that we paid for private rooms for better services and conditions and bathrooms were smelly water was gone randomly, we couldn't even brush or get fresh cuz no water very disappointed. (nobody even told us about if there's a time water will be gone). still I don't think morning 7 am is a decent time for water cut off, and yes the wifi was terrible terrible.. u can't pick a call u can't place a call u can't use your phone the wifi is soo ass u can't use that and u can't use your own internet either... if u are a group of friends tryna enjoy please avoid this place

    we were four people at this place. The stay is very good for this price. Uts near to palolem beach 6 min walk. The people that come to this hostel can have a pretty nice party life in south. any other property might not have these goof vibes as this hostel. The receptionist here Teep was really wonderful to us. she helped us our with every need. and even had fun conversations with us. near palolem this is the best stay.
