Nice place, a little dreary for my taste, however the breakfast is incredible and the staff is more helpful than any I have ever met. Currently the place is being remodeled so the dust and noise are annoying, but once the work is done and the pool is complete, I think the patio will be unbeatable.

the hostel is under construction, but that does not matter at all. Upon arrival you are welcomed by the 2 fantastic dogs Sparta and Zulu. Paolo (the owner) is great, very open and helps you by passing on tips and advise to get the most out of your trip!

Although the hostel is under renovation, the accomodation is very comfortable, breakfast is superb and Paulo is the most trustworthy, informative and friendly host I've ever met! :)   Read Owner Comments

Nice hostel in teh middle of the historic district so a good starting point to see the sights of Salvador. Also prett handy for the tuesday night street party. The hostel was undergoing a few renovations when we were there but the owners made us fully aware of these so it wasn´t a problem. Rooms are a good size and have their own bathrooms and are cleaned everyday. Good place to stay in Salvador & they have a restaurant round the corner for great food with a discount if you´re staying there

the only problem in the hostel was quite bad quality of mattresses. so if you spend there more than one night it starts to be a bit uncomfortable. travelers need to get good sleep :) the rest was just perfect! stuff is very friendly and tries to help in any situation. great was the information about parties and other activities going on in the city every day.   Read Owner Comments

This is one of the best hostels I've ever been! Excellent staff, location and breakfast! It is also a nice place to meet other people! The hostel owners also have a restaurant that have excellent food for cheap prices. Highly recommended!

Charming hostel in Salvador. Paulo and the girls are great hosts. The breakfast is lovely and the scrambled eggs are a nice addition. Charismatic chill out room and nice courtyard. We were very happy with our stay here.

Loved this hostel, really make you feel at home. Staff are friendly, helpful and welcoming. Breakfast is great, chillout room is cool, location very central, the whole place is very clean and it was the first place we found with hot showers in Brazil! The staff recommend good places to go every night and give directions! Would definitely reccommend it and would go back again.

Loved the BIG dogs, great breakfast til 12, great location in Pelo, Paulo recommended alot for us to do and see, great showers with hot water. A pretty chilled out place, with space to socialise and have a drink before heading out.
