The property is beautiful with a cute little roof top terrace. The room and bathroom were quaint in size but good enough. The wifi in the room was strong. We checked out after one night due to what I believe is a one-off bad experience. We came back late after a movie and discovered our things were covered with baby... More

What a great experience it was to stay at Afonso Guest House! After 4 months traveling around South East Asia and India, all my boyfriend and I wanted to do was stay at a nice place, relax and enjoy peacefully. And that´s what we could do here! Clifton is a very cheerful and charismatic person, always smiling and willing to... More

We were very happy to have stayed at this beautiful and tranquil place. It is well-managed by a friendly multilingual Goan family. The hotel is located in one of the nicest neighbourhoods in town, among well-preserved and renovated colorful colonial buildings. Panaji is a rather small town so everything is within walking distance. Our room was nice and clean, and... More

My wife and I have been traveling for 5 months through Asia. This little b&b was definitely one of the highlights! Jeannette, her son, Clifton, and daughter felt like extended family, giving us helpful and genuine advice. The location is atmospheric and the room was very comfortable. The homey feel (block stamped sheets from Jaipur) was refreshingly charming. Breakfast came... More

Maybe the cleanest place I have stayed at in India for less than 1600 rupees. Friendly staff, good location. WIFI is free and quite fast. Laundry service is ok, but did not manage to remove stains from my white shirt. These stains disappeared when I provided the laundry service in my next hotel with a can of Vanish... Food is... More

I would just like to sat first off that it was a lovely experience and we would do it again in a heartbeat! It had a great central location close to internet cafes, beautiful churches, downtown, and our very favorite restaurant, Viva Panjim, was just around the corner! Clean comfortable rooms, friendly service, beautiful terrace views, and fun breakfast on... More

a very good experience - small but clean and comfortable room, warm shower, a very nice roof terrace with good breakfast, perfect location in the middle of Fonteinhas and a friendly owner to assist with anything. came there after a not so good experience at Casa Paradiso: for almost the same price, this is definitely the much better choice.

I spent two nights with a friend at the guesthouse in oktober, and it was a very good experience. Yes, rooms are very basic, but it is not a hotel, it is really a guesthouse, and a very nice one! Good atmosphere, friendly owner (+son), rooms nicely decorated, clean, everything is there. Breakfast on rooftop, so relaxing. The owner arranged... More

They claim it to be authentic Portuguese Inn. In simple words, this is just an old building like we have in any other small town narrow lanes. Might be embarrassing if you're going on honeymoon. For tight budget, it can be considered provided you plan to spend most of the time outside the hotel.
