My opinion is of a GIRL who slept at the female dorm and used the female ONLY bathroom. GOOD - free wifi: this is wonderful - Apple computers for guests to use: I didn\'t use then myself but they\'re mac mini. - Bed linens are well washed and you get yours sealed. Did they had holes? A little bit but it wasn\'t bad. - Hostel\'s crew are nice - The price is wonderful BAD - the room didn\'t have adequate air renewing. It\'s totally okay that the front windows were sealed and there\'s only one wind

Bit far from downtown. But metro was not very far. Receptionist girl didn't like to repeat things twice...And sometimes we needed it just to make sure

I paid almost 40€ for a bed in a dorm with the window broken and no light. No breakfast. Noisy. I would not recommend it.

The location of the hostel is GREAT! Staff was nice, except for 1 night when they woke me up in the night, like there was something wrong and asking who took my reservation (was already my 2nd night), and gave no explanation whatsoever! But the biggest problem was that the room was VERY VERY HOT, so that I couldn't sleep on my 3 nights there. You should really put AC on the rooms! One day I woke up to loud music inside the room, it was being listened by the owner, and I found disrespectful.

The hostel is pretty nice and the staff very friendly. Unfortunately they dont offer free breakfast, but the free caipi every evening is a nice compensation ;) The hostel is clean and very close to the metro station. Its located in a really nice and safe part of Sao Paulo.

well a 5am wake up call from the friendly jack hammer next door was an enjoyable touch. The linen was more thin than cheap toilet paper and the bar lacked atmosphere but other than that it was ok .

Hostel was a little bit understaffed so they did not open the bar, however it was doing Carnival so we were out on the streets anyways. Staff were extremely helpful answering all of our several questions. Kitchen was clean and nice as were bathrooms. No outside alcohol allowed. I would stay again.

This hostel had a great atmosphere and the staff were great. They helped us with finding the closest supermarkets and laundromat and pointed us in the direction of some of the things we had to see on our short visit to Sao Paulo. And keep an eye out for the big fro'ed Bebeto who know all about the night life!

Helpful Staff and good location. Rooms were quite hot though, A/C or an extra fan might help with that?

This was my first stop in Latin America & i was so nervous about staying in a hostel by myself in Sao Paulo however Limetime hostel was fantastic & made me feel so at ease! I couldnt have asked for a better hostel on the first leg of my journey! The staff were EXCELLENT, always friendly, happy to help & bent over backwards to help you! The rooms were big enough,lockers were safe, bathroom always clean! Free drink every night, easy to meet people, supurb location! Would definately stay again!

Great hostel with friendly staff in a great location. It was easy to meet people. I\'d definitely stay there again. The rooms had windows that could be opened for fresh air, which is really important in Latin America.

This party animal headquarters the bar is blaring music from 7;30PM -1200 & the back rooms are directly over the bar if you plan on getting sleep do not stay here . To offset that the staff is helpful too an extraordinary degree the location & security are great . But I would not come back here because there is no option for those of us who chose not to party till 1AM very night!!

I can't see why this hostel is one of the top rated in Sao Paulo. I came there after a horrible night bus and was looking forward to take a couple hours nap, but they were fumigating the place and I was basically thrown onto the street in the meanwhile. Most of the staff is very nice but unfortunately there is a rotten apple there, that I hope for that person was just a bad day...

I only stayed here one night so hard to judge, the room I was in only had one of the ceiling fans working so it was very hot, I did mention it to the staff but nothing was done about it

The hostel is in an excellent location, very near to the metro stations and pretty close to downtown. The staff is very kind and the facilities are always clean. There are lockers but not big enough.
