Owners very helpful and nice -- arrived to find 3 muggings (one guy twice!!) had taken place the night before--the tuesday night street party --one lad ended up with a broken leg -- so this "greeting" me on my arrival made me very edgy my whole time in Salvador and couldn't wait to get out of the city!... --Having said that , i had no problems myself and the hostel was very nice indeed --just the area seems a bit dodgy..

I really enjoyed our stay in Nega Maluca, the staff were very friendly and helpful and I really enjoyed the outside terrace with hanging beds, the atmosphere in the guesthouse was great as well. The only inconvenience was the noise coming from the street in our double room when we wanted to get to the bed earlier. Otherwise excellent value for money.

Delia, Simone, Gustav were lovely hosts. Very polite, helpful and fun! Simone took me to a cool local market and delia took me to a local theatre event. I was stuck in the hostel a lot because of the bad weather, but it was a chill place to hang out. Only complain- the basement dorms and the beds smell funny\musty because the rain. Totally triggered my allergies! But I'd deff stay here again. Great breakfast, wifi, lots of info about what to do etc...

We arrived later in the evening and the guy who checked us in was a bit odd. He gave us a map and showed us the area, but whenever we would ask him questions he seemed annoyed to help. Our room was big, with our own kitchen and bathroom but was filthy. Breakfast was gross. Stale bread, watermelon, and processed baloney. There was good wireless internet that we could use with our phones, which was a plus. There seemed to be better hostels in the area for the same price.

Breakfast is the best here! We really look forward to starting our day with the great food the hostel provides. Its a bit stormy, so the fun level wasn´t what I expected, but the Hostel provided us with great information for Salvador and surrounding areas. It´s too bad the USB drives on the computer do not work, as many travellers want to backup their pics and upload to blogs. Overall, great hostel!

The staff were very friendly and knew a lot about the area. The other travellers i met there were cool - a good mix of people. I could swing in that hammock all day! And on one morning the cook made us all pancakes which were delicious. Didnt really feel safe wandering around the area, but i guess thats just Salvador for you and not a lot can be done about that!

Very nice and helpful staff! Great breakfast! We loved the terrace and the hammocks. When we were there they renovated the rooms.

This place is fine if you're just going to be in and out - well located in the Pelorinho. But it iis cramped and poky - hardly any space in the dorm, and to make it worse everyone was crammed into one of the dorms while the other one was left empty. The terrace on the top is a nice place to sit, but could use some comfy lounges to rellax on. There is a sort of floor mat thing with cushions but it is absolutely filthy. On that note so are the bathrooms.
