I really apprecitate my stay at elmisti copacabana, the location is very convinient near the beach, and a nice supermarket. All the staff are very nice people and helpful. All the tours they propose are very good quality and very interesting, I particularly apprecitate the favela tour. I definitively want to come back to Rio and stay at elmisti of course!!!

Tours are overpriced and they wouldn´t even help me book a bus ticket because I don´t speak Portuguese. Theré are so many nicer hostels than here look around.   Read Owner Comments

El Misti hostel has everything you need for a great time in Rio! Excellent location with a 10 minute walk down to Copacabana and just down the street a taxi pole and a grocery store! The staff is friendly and will help you to get the best out of your time in the city! Good place for meeting other people as well, I had a great time there!   Read Owner Comments
