Well, actually, like for most of those who have not been, Goa seemed to me a magical exotic place that I knew almost nothing about . . I chose the hotel based on reviews (though not on this site, unfortunately, so I decided to add this hotel).
The first impression of Goa is garbage, a lot of garbage, a lot of garbage) The second is cows that go everywhere. On the first day, most people go into shock as they after the Egyptians and Turkeys they expect something similar, but there is nothing like it in Goa : ) After a couple of days, the shock passes and then it all depends on how much you can relax and enjoy, and there is a lot of it . . Well, now actually about the hotel. The hotel is very cozy. 4 floors, two-room suites, one bedroom, the second living room. And in the living room there is a sofa that can be laid out and sleep) In the bedroom there is air conditioning and a fan on the ceiling, in the living room there is only a fan. There is no shower stall as such, there is a curtain between the toilet and the shower and that's it, but everything is clean and it seemed to me much more convenient than climbing into the basin of the shower every time. In general, this is only a plus. Breakfast is monotonous (scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs and porridge in turn), but quite edible. I do not recommend ordering lunch or dinner at the hotel. The waiters take orders for the entire menu, and then bring half the dishes and pretend not to understand you when you ask "where is the rest? ". Of course, they don’t include it in the bill, but they still don’t say that some dishes are not available) In addition, there are plenty of cafes on the street 150 meters away (I recommend the Babut cafe right across the street from the hotel, there is a menu in Russian and generally decent). There are a lot of insects, as such in the hotel in some rooms (for example, with friends in room C7) ants live, the rest of the insects fly in and crawl into the light if you open the balcony in the evening. There is a pool, but I didn’t have to swim in it, everything is fine, but I didn’t want it when the ocean was not far away. Although it is 500 meters to go to it . . the road is certainly not asphalt, but you can walk for 7-10 minutes, the road does not tire. There are no beach towels at the hotel. The rooms are cleaned well for a tip (20-50 rupees), there is a minibar, TVs, 2 in a room, telephones, a refrigerator, an electric kettle. Tea and coffee in the room are free in jars. Water and drinks for money. We brought any products to the hotel that we wanted, both alcohol and food and water, no one said a word, and right next to the road there are two minimarkets with any products. The staff is normal. As you are with them, so they are with you, you smile - they smile at you) The entrance to the hotel is open around the clock, at night the guard sits (or sleeps), but as you approach, he will meet you and look at you. Parking nearby, you can leave mopeds for the night. In general, the hotel was pleasantly surprised, except for the food and the pool - then it quite claims to be an Egyptian 4 stars. I recommend )
Everything is written on the beach, there are plenty of sunbeds at each bar, they are free if you drink or eat in this cafe. In short, lie down on sunbeds, order a beer or cola or fresh juice and lie down, you can’t imagine cheaper prices. The nearest cafes on the Tropicana and Fishermen beach (you will go straight to them). We were at the Tropicana, get a massage from local women (Zita and Anita) for 400 rupees, they do it quite nicely and right on your sunbed, and after that every time they will drive away all the beggars and traders from you, of which there are a huge number. Haggle on the market, they announce a price at least 2-3 times higher than the one for which they will then sell. If you are interested in prices for specific products - write, I will inform you)
As for Wi-Fi in all cafes - a lie, I never found a single cafe with free Internet in all of Goa. The megaphone does not receive a signal at all. MTS is fine. But the best is Beeline. In general, take two photos and a photocopy of the visa page from your passport with you (they are necessary when buying a SIM card) and buy a SIM card for 300-400 rupees, SMS to Moscow will cost about 7 rupees, and there will immediately be 300 rupees on your account in this price. Exchange rate: 1 dollar is about 43 rupees.
Have a nice holiday! )
