Good Experience

Earlier room alloted was not good. AC was not working; but Manager changed and shifted us to deluxe room. It was very excellent. Service blys are very honest. I must mention that my wife forgot mobile in room itself. The boy kept in room aside; it was a great experience. Beach is just at walkable distance. Need to select only Deluxe room if need comfort. Overall experience is good Thank you Manager and all staff@Rivasa Resort

Worst hotel, don't go by pics. Waste of money.

Worst hotel near beach. Staff is arrogant. Rooms are not properly maintained. It's like a jail barracks. Don't try to even think of it to stay.

Average hotel

Average hotel with good swimming pool and power back up. Cleanliness is good but room doors give us very ordinary fell to stay. Complimentary breakfast is not well served. They just serve bread with butter, jam and cheese. Them they serve either Poori with bhaji or aloo chappathi with curd. Don't book this hotel considering complimentary breakfast.

The Worst Horrible experience in Goa

A horrible experience in Goa We booked 3 rooms for 2 nights thru Hotels.com - when we arrived front office person doesn't have any clue on booking!!!! Finally we got the rooms - some caution for new guests - never take room 102 - it does not have a bathroom attached!!!! Such a hotel in Goa!!!! Complementary breakfast - better to avoid only one item is the buffet!!!! No management in this place - you won't believe guests are swimming in the pool along with drinks and even puke in the pool. No hotel staff stops such things. Never ever stay in this place

Just very very average

This hotel is solely meant for bachelors. We as a family stayed for 2 nights and there was a group of almost 200 students staying at that time. The whole night they were partying, played loud music and the management couldn't do anything to control them

Good stay as a budget hotel.

We stayed for 1 week in Anup Holiday Homes. It is a good hotel with swimming pool as well as the rooms were very good and spacious with a verandah. The best part of the hotel was the location, just 10 mins away from the beach and near the heart of Calangutey market. The room aervice could have been improved but overall it is a pleasane experience.

An Excellent in Budget hotel

Its a good family hotel. Hotel staff is friendly and helping. Rooms are small but clean. Bathrooms are very clean. We stayed in AC Apartment in which breakfast buffet was included. Our experience was very comfortable and pleasant. Its very near to Calangute beach so we could just walk to the beach and didn't need to hire bikes.

Nice hotel besides the Calangute.

We had an awesome trip to goa and the hotel being so close to Calangute helped a lot. Hotel was safe to visit with Females, however the staff was not up to the mark for room service. Even to fetch water, we have to go and fill it, but all in all it can be neglected because the hotel was fine and the trip went Freaking Awesome.
