“Inexperienced owner who just wants a retirement home with pocket money”
+View.
−The staff doesn't provide cutlery when order from zomato. I booked private room. Staff comes to physically threaten when confronted by solo traveller. Loud music played by neighbouring shacks. When played by my mobile on a personal table, care taker had physically abused me . Owner (an old man) doesn't care either cause he himself is drunk.

“Strongly Not worth it”
+Only Location was good.
−Highly unsafe and extremely unhygienic hostel,I strongly advise against staying here, especially for solo female travelers. The positive reviews online are completely misleading. I initially booked a non-AC dorm, but the room was filthy, covered in spiderwebs, and had a foul smell that made it almost impossible to breathe. The bathroom was in terrible condition with rust, spiderwebs, no wall hangers, and a broken jet spray. In the middle of the night, I had to pay an extra 500 INR to upgrade to an AC dorm just to survive. Unfortunately, that wasn't worth the money either; the bathroom was dirty, and the jet spray pipe had a large hole that sprayed water everywhere. Absolutely not worth it.

+Nothing
−There were no staff. None for help. No facility. I understand it is the off season, but this level of lack of ownership forced me to write my first bad review ever. Very disappointed that i checked out the third day, though i was made to pay the full amount for 9 days. Since there was no one at the helpdesk I had to cancel the booking through the app the third day and till date there is no response..

“Great location, good vibes but not taken care of.”
+The beach location. Chill vibe. Simple homestyle food and chai were nice. The owners are friendly and good to chat with. Pet friendly but there are stray dogs in the common areas. The swings and recliners are a nice touch.
−The room was not maintained. Actually, it was quite dirty. There was a big rat in the room that would come out at night. Lack of fans in common areas to deal with mosquitoes who dont let you sit there otherwise. The staff looks very unhappy in doing their work.

“Cheapest beachfront in Arambol”
+Location. It's the cheapest beachfront in arambol.
−Except location, nothing's worthy. There are 3bunks in the dorm and the room is fully packed.
