My name is Krishna Kant and here I am going to post a review on Hotel Good Shepherd which is in the Margao city of Goa.
It is nearer to Madgaon railway station. So I booked a room in this hotel when I was to visit Goa previous year in the christmas celebration. It was my biggest mistake which I came to know later. Firstly let me tell you that I with my friend reached Madgaon railway station at 2AM early. It was very cold in early morning and fog was spread all over the surrounding.
We didnot decided to go for hotel on our own as it was totally unknown city for us and it was too dark outside so I called hotel to send any receiving but unfortunately there was no any response from hotel inspite of calling them for four to five time. Finally we decided to take taxi. But no taxi was available. We had to walk on our foot to reach there.
By taking help from mobile GPS we reached near hotel location but hotel was not anywhere. It was really very strange. It was very problematic for us. Fortunately, there was a general store open near hotel in that late night. He helped us in reaching there. It was very interior to the village area. After getting there hotel staff told us that we will have to wait till 10 am as it is the check in time. We requested him for early check in after some extra payment but he refused us from providing any room. It was so careless behaviour from hotel side as I had requested for early check in from a mail to hotel authority.
Anyway, finally at 9: 30 am we were allowed to enter the room. But the condition of room was really very pathatic. So old room with improper construction and design. Fan was also not working properly. There was a colored television in the room without any remote. Attached washroom was stinking and there was no any proper supply of water.
Guys, I was charged very high for booking the room for which I had expected a good facility but the hotel doesnot stand on the cost of rooms. Also, in the details of hotel they have stated there is a restaurant and home delivery service. But there is nothing such available. You will have to walk about a kilometer forgetting meals.
