Ocean Crest

Positives: The look and feel of the hotel, passageways, room is pleasing and clean and not very costly. Booked a taxi for the airport and it came on time; though I thought the rate (Rs 900 AC) was quite high. A good, fancy restaurant (Kudos) is located nearby, as also a well-stocked supermarket (Ramola supermarket). If you have a vehicle, Colva beach and a couple of other beaches are not too far away. The Goa Chitra Museum too is quite close as is Margao. Tony the manager seemed quite helpful though I did not have much occasion to avail of his services…. Areas of improvement: I stayed here two nights, the room (#302) was not cleaned during this period. There were red ants in one corner of the room. The door to the balcony has to be kept shut due to security reasons and there is no window to the room, that is a problem especially if you don’t want to use the AC. The door chain was broken, the TV is quite small. The AC only worked at full blast and not really at any other settings. Hence couldn’t sleep properly the first night. I rented a two-wheeler through front desk and the rate was quite costly (Rs 350 for a day). Bed lights should be provided for reading, the tubelight makes for harsh light at night. Toilet paper was missing during my stay. Other tips: This is away from the beaches so you will need some vehicle of your own. Use maps, printed or Google to find your way around. Good for budget travellers. Single women travellers or families to evaluate whether this hotel: location and security fits their requirement.
