Detailed Reviews
The XOXO hostel can be easily located. It is opposite the Arpora petrol pump which makes it easy getting your vehicles refuelled. At first look you may get confused as to where the hostel is. Climb up a few steps and you reach the hostel. You are greeted by friendly hosts at the reception. Lounge about at the reception with some beer and food in case you reach early or otherwise also. Their choice of music is good. The property is dimly lit in the evenings with some strobe lights near the garden that gives you a nice lounge like feeling. The staff is quite friendly and greet you with a smile and are always ready to help, be it with your food and beverage orders or helping you with your luggage. While I had booked a room in one of the tent-like structures, I was allotted a deluxe room at no extra cost. The room was spacious and clean with a clean bathroom. But be prepared to stay awake to some loud music right outside your room as the speakers are placed there. However, if you aren't up for some good deep house music till late night in Goa, hostels are not meant for you.
The only drawback: The pool looked very dirty and I could not get myself to enter the pool. I hope they can clean the pool and maintain it as guests do utilise swimming pools during their stay. No other issues otherwise.

I stayed in xoxo hostel for three days . I am writing a review of my stay there , and I would like to share my experience .
The place had a party vibe at the first look , it had a nice bar and a party space as the center of that place along with a swimming pool and that is the best part of the whole area. They don't have a good lounge space for people to wait while checking in , they have incorporated it with the bar space which might be disturbing for some people with the loud noises and lights.
The rooms were quite good with comfy beds and pillows.
The was provided with a rack for keeping luggage.The room was nicely lit and had two good bathrooms for six people.The bathroom was really good and clean.The room service was very bad as we had to beg for them to come and clean the room. The room was getting wet due to rain coming inside. They also didn't give us essential bathroom materials like soap,towels etc .The kitchen services were also poor as their pets and other dogs wandered around it.
It was also noted that the pets were using the sofa provided for users and they were actually destroying the sofa by making it dirty.
Overall the place had possibilities , but due to bad service and response my impression about the place came to a downfall. If they are opting to improve the services and make some renovation , this place has a chance of survival.

The Good..
This is a great place in an excellent location. Enjoyed the stay. Wonderful Hospitality.
Food is good
And, two cute doggies..loved petting them:)
The bad..
Swimming pool needs to be maintained better
Housekeeping needs to be proactive
The place is not used effectively. This can be a more happening, entertaining place..maybe with Pubs, DJs etc
And the Ugly...
Nothing :)

The place only looks good in pictures. The main problem here is the people who handle it. The staff is very rude to their customers, VERY slow and it's a normal thing for them to forget our order till you remind them 5-6 times.
It's managed by a bunch of obnoxiously unprofessional and ignorant people from Delhi/Gurugram who have just come to Goa but are killing the Goa vibe.
Food was below average, drinks are overpriced. You can rather go to the 100s of bars around that area and get better food and cheaper drinks.
These guys almost force the customers to give them a good review online before they can even experience the place and have released bots and fake reviews.

I keep coming to this property everytime I want to spend time in blissful Goa. I choose this place because the decor and aesthetics are muted and subtly conditioned. The rooms are comfortable and cater to every needs. Unlike many other Indian Hotels here there are no compromises made with respect to amenities provided.
The level of courtesy extended is exemplary. It makes you feel really at home. I give my unreserved recommendation.

I can list multiple things, but most importantly they don't respect their guests. We had to checkout at 10th November, they harrassed us at on 7th November (when we had already made an advance payment)at 6 in the morning to clear the bill and locked us out of our room. Whatever you do do not stay here. Now let's talk about some other reasons.
1) red ant colonies in the room. Fireants on the property everywhere.
2) loud techno music from 11 in the morning to 3 am in the night
3) A person tested positive for corona and they took no action, served her in the common plates and asked residents to lie about it.
Don't even get swrpt by the property pictures, we did the same mistake. I stayed there for a month and in the end they literally harrased us for a few hundred rupees.
Please find an another hostel. Don't fall under the same trap we did.

I stayed at xoxo for few days. My experiance was horrible. Their customer service was so bad. The room wasnt cleaned and no essentials (soap,towel)were given. They didint even give us water. And there was rain when we got there , all the rooms were flooded with water. The kitchen they cooked food was so untidy that dogs were passing through them. Xoxo hostel is the worst place i have ever stayed.

Last i stayed at xoxo during my visit in February this year. The best thing about the place is hospitality and its vibe. I remember sleeping everyday around 5 bcos bar & kitchen both were open with great music. Perfect place for backpackers and long stays. Saw a lot of people staying and doing wfh from xoxo, seems like a good idea.
If you are looking for hostels then a great option in Anjuna
