Hello! I will do a good deed and write the first review about this hotel . . Basically, our vacation was focused on the sun and the ocean, so we decided to save as much as possible on accommodation in order to fully enjoy the local flavor, nature and food, which, in principle, we did not regret, but. . .
The hotel is located in the tourist heart of the village of Benaulim, which is very convenient, because. in the immediate vicinity there are several good supermarkets and the sale of all kinds of necessities (fruits, clothing, currency exchange, etc. )
Go to the sea for at least 10 minutes on a straight road or you can take a taxi / tuk-tuk for 50 rupees one way.

Now about the hotel: the territory is minimal, the hotel has only 19 rooms, there is a swimming pool, it seems to be clean, but we didn’t risk it . . A young guy works at the reception, not boom-boom in Russian. They settled us on the 3rd floor overlooking a wonderful landfill and a noisy road, but because We only slept in the room and it didn't bother us at all. In the room: double bed, sofa, table, wardrobe, TV, air conditioning and fan, bathroom with hot (! ) water. Everything is working properly. TV is true without Russian channels, but this is not a problem. These are pluses! Cons: a lot of dirt and a constant unpleasant smell, most likely due to humidity. Everything in the room is dusty, the bin is in pieces of dirt, but gray bugs of an incomprehensible breed roam the room, but they seem to be harmless) They clean it only if you ask the reception for this service after leaving the room key there. We ordered cleaning 1 time, then we realized that it does not make sense. They left 50 rupees on the bed, in the evening they came to the room, hoping to see glimpses of cleanliness there... they realized that the cleaning was done only after the disappearance of fifty dollars from the bed)) I'm lying! They also took out the garbage from the dirty trash can and changed one of the two towels. On one of the nights, a rat (mutant) got into our room, most likely through the balcony . . I woke up from the rustling of fruit bags on the table, as if someone was conducting an audit in them, looking at my husband... sleeping! It became scary as never before, and in order to turn on the light you have to go through the whole room! I wake up my husband, I drive him to turn on the light, he gets up without understanding anything and goes to the switch and then bam !! ! Let there be Light! I’m watching a monster of unrealistic sizes sit right “booty” on my cosmetic bag and look for something in the bags... I scream, she jumped on the floor and under the bed! No one has ever seen her again, I know for sure, because I never slept again, I was always awake, even at night! The next day at the reception, the guy answered me: Mouse it's good! And he smiled so sweetly)) And of course everything was not bad.
We had breakfast, as it should be on a tour, at the hotel. Croutons, scrambled eggs to choose from, tea / coffee. Everything was delicious!
The review referred only to the hotel, just to spend the night the place is normal but no more!
The holiday in general was fabulous! There is beauty all around, the ocean is like fresh milk, people are all kind and helpful!! ! Separately, I want to say about food on the beach: we tried to eat in almost all the beach shakes of Benaulim, it’s delicious everywhere, but we still stopped at one, especially cozy one: Coco`s shake (4th shake to the right of the main entrance to the beach, right behind Rogers ). The owner of the establishment is Nepalese, their cuisine is especially tasty and inexpensive! I will answer your questions!
