    Have some mosquito repellent with you when using the open air common area, nature is great, but it has its cons. Also, prepare to feel the real Indian style of sleeping, the beds are rock hard as per local tradition "^^

    The staff is very friendly and welcoming! The location is perfect to enjoy Vagator and meet travellers from all around the globe! The place is hidden into the nature, it has a common area surrounded by trees that you'll love!

    I wasn't aware of the dogs, inside the property. Wardrobe doors are broken. You can't latch the washroom while using.

    Location is very close to beach and the in-house cafe

    I have no complaints. One of the best hostels I've stayed in.

    The room is very nice and comfortably furnished and hygienically clean. The single rooms have a balcony with a view of the green forest. The hostel has plenty of seating to relax and chill. The restaurant serves everything your heart desires. The staff is always helpful and in a good mood. Vagator Beach (Ozran Beach) is just around the corner. Overall, I love staying at Kaabo Hostel and would love to come back anytime.

    I had the most incredible time at Kaabo Hostel in Goa! This vibrant hostel truly captures the spirit of backpacking. From the moment I checked in, I felt at home among fellow travelers from all over the world. *Fantastic Amenities:* - Clean, spacious dorms and private rooms - Delicious cafe serving mouth-watering breakfast and snacks - Lively bar with happy hour deals and themed nights - Cozy common areas perfect for meeting new people *Exceptional Staff:* The staff were super friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. They organized amazing events and activities, from beach parties to yoga sessions. *Prime Location:* Just a short walk from the beach and close to Goa's top attractions. *Unbeatable Value:* Affordable prices without compromising on quality. If you're looking for a social, relaxing, and unforgettable experience in Goa, Kaabo is the place to be! I'll definitely be back.

    Although i booked the 4 bedroom, the room situation was horrible. Full of humidity, rot, insects and smells horrible. Barely aerated with no direct sunlight. Lockers were full of mites, small insects and spiders. Washroom was rotten, broken toilet, black spots everywhere. Main door can only be locked from one side, so you can easily get trapped inside by mistake. Would not come back again.

    Location is a walking distance to the beach and market main street. Menu in their restaurant was nice and affordable.

    Loved my stay here, super close to the beach and only a short distance to restaurants/bars/clubs. The bed was really comfy with curtains and plugs close. The on site cafe also served amazing food and really reasonable prices, and all the staff were so friendly and helpful. The place has a chill vibe and is situated further from the road surrounded by greenery which made it so peaceful. Would 100% recommend this hostel and cafe to everyone. Thank you for a great stay!
