first hot shower i had in a while, so facilities are great, but it´s seriously annoying that you can´t keep food in the fridge!! it doesn´t have a good place to hang out and socialize. but we still had a good time and met nice people. most of the staff are also very nice and helpful. More

I was told this is on the more expensive side for hostels, but you get what you pay for. Walking distance from the best places in rio, fun amazing people, a kind staff, and clean bathrooms and bedrooms. Can't ask for much more! More

Really nice hostel located close to the beach. They can organise a good tour around Rio for you with the main highlights. The free drink was beautiful. All the staff were very friendly and the cleaning staff were lovely. I would recommend staying here as it was really good. More

I loved this place. Great staff, chill atmosphere, good breakfast (bread, cheese, meat, fresh fruit, fresh OJ, etc.) and clean rooms. The locker ended up being just a locked drawer under the beds -which was less secure than I was hoping, but everyone I met was great -I never feared for my More

The location of this hostel is perfect for nightlife in Rio. It's a really charming venue that has great views of the city. The staff is accommodating, too. The only downside to this hostel is the higher price, but I'd say it is worth the extra bucks. More

Lisetonga Hostel is a great place near Leme Beach. It’s also just a walk of about 10 minutes to get to Nossa Senhora de Copacabana (shopping) and to Copacabana Beach. Our room, Bratislava, was really great. The beds are comfortable and sheets were provided by the staff. The view from the More

The staff at Mango Tree is unbelieveably amazing. I kept going back and was gutted when they were booked up and I had to move. The atmosphere is very relaxed and there is always a good vibe around Mango Tree. Location is amazing, just one block from Post 9 Ipanema beach. I stayed in More
