Great location in Ipanema by restaurants and bars. Facilities were good, though the triple bunk beds make it a bit cramped. The owner was very nice and helpful, but the rest of the staff was hit or miss and it wasn't an overly social atmosphere with other guests.

2/3 of the staff we met were very unfriendly. The room we had booked did not match our expectations according to the pictures we'd seen online. There were insects (smal worms) in our beds. The recepiton was untidy and messy. I would NOT recomend anyone booking this place.

Sometimes at night,the lights attract Cupim Voador ...there are totally harmless and part of a tropical weather.You stayed in a double room ensuite exactly as the picture you saw on the website you booked.Sorry to say that my staff said you were not friendly as well.I am the owner,you stayed 3 nights but we did not meet or either you tried to talked to me.It remembers me of a couple complaining on the web but being very nice in front of me...........Stephane.

Great location, helpful staff and clean bathrooms. Not a social atmosphere but that was no problem. Good breakfast.

very expensive for the overall quality. No cleaning of the rooms. Approximative breakfast. The staff is ... trying to grab some money to you through very basic services. Don't ask them for a taxi, they call their friends (fake taxi and expensive trip). I do not recommand this hotel at all. Hopefully, Rio is Rio

You had a double room ensuite at 260 reais per night.We do not enter private room unless you ask for cleaning...you have a sign about it inside the room.We ask 60 reais for a taxi to take you to GIG Airport but feel free to take one in the street,it should be cheaper,around 50 reais.Your booking was for 2 nights...Once again,if you feel something is wrong,ask reception.About our breakfast,sorry it is just so delicious.................Stephane,the owner.

The staff is pleasant but they double booked our private room months before our arrival. Instead of contacting us they created a solution for us to stay in our booked room one night and for me to sleep on the couch in the common room while my wife slept in the mixed dorm. They let us know about the double booking and their "solution" as we were paying for the room. We stayed one night and then went elsewhere, cheaper and better. I tried to contact the owner but received no response.
