Travel from Madgaon Station to Panjim

Hi all,

I'll be in Goa for an event in February. I need to go from Madgaon station to Panjim. There has been a lot of news about taxis being unreliable in Goa and honestly, I've had experiences being overcharged in Panjim when I was last here.

What's my best option? Are prepaid taxis reliable and safe? How much will the ride cost? The hotel where I'll be staying has said they don't arrange pickups from the station.
