Dirty toilets, never any toilet paper, lazy and fed up staff. Felt like the beds were going to cave in (assembled from really thin timber). People watching television until 3am right outside our room. Booked 3 nights but only stayed one. Would not reccomend, not value for money

All showers were cold, not a point during the hot daytime, but in the evening a hot shower is appreaciated. The 12 pers dorm was the smallest we've been all three months, way too small for twelve persons and all their luggage. The hostel was very crammed.

the rooms were tiny, and still had 9 beds, stacked in triple bunks. one of the employees came in whenever she got home drunk and woke us up, poor social area, and activities organised were almost non existent. would rather pay a little more and stay in a beter hostel.

Very nice staff, quite ok location, good atmosphere. But I am not sure that the owners ivested too much in the hostel. Simple old house, tooo many beds in small place. Value for money? Maybe in current Rio situation but not in my home. Anyway overall impression is good. Not because of facility. Because of guests, staff and athmosphere.

Great staff, had lots of fun, good location, a short walk from the beaches and really close to a number of restaurants and eateries. Good place to meat people!

location is terrible. It is 20 min (minimum) walking distance from the beach (Leblon) and for everything you must take a bus. Staff can be quite lazy, but always in a good mood. If you are a single girl and travel on your own, I would recommend to pick another hostel... maybe located more in the center of Leblon. For a group of guys i believe it is ok..

A party hostel for sure, might be too loud for sleeping if you are not planning to go out at nights, but also has good company to rock the city with. Has lovely monkeys to greet you in the mornings and a delightful view of the ocean in the backyard. Rooms are very snug, but there are lockers for backbags.

Decent place - if a little off the beaten track on the road out of Leblon. Fun for New Years, and also didn't try and rip people off (5 day minimum 200 reals per night etc) which was refreshing.

The bathrooms were very dirty. The toilets were blocked and smelling badly. There was no hot water in the shower. The staff was quite nice and helpful.

Great place to stay in Rio. We arrived the hostel and got the room very fast and relevant information of our surroundings. It is very near a great beach and quite close to Leblon beach. The staff were great and the owner has a habit of taking his guests out to great places to party. After only a day we already felt more that we were staying at a friends house and not a hostel. Nothing I would change bout this great place:)
