Hotel Mandovi

Most staff friendly. The barman in the late afternoon and evening was superb as usual.

In decline there are management problems. Very poor barman in the afternoon failed to give information why the restaurant was closed, could not provide Wi-Fi pw. Obtained pw from reception it didn't work. No ice cream which was disappointing the Mandovi chocolate sauce was brilliant on our last visit. A fine old hotel being ruined. The staff are doing there best in the circumstances. Unfortunately I will not be returning.

Location is conveniently located close to points of interest in Panaji city.

Room had a strong smell of cigarettes which wouldn't go away. We even opened the windows and sprayed some room freshener but the smell kept coming back. The hotel had confirmed a booking of a double size bed, but on check-in, they provided us two twin beds saying they had run out of rooms with a double size bed. Cleanliness was poor, cigarettes ash left blocking the drain below the sink along with used matches, tables dirty, cobwebs seen on the furniture, empty and un-defrosted mini fridge, torn pillow cases.
