Fabulous

The hostel itself was very nice and well equipped. The volunteers were very helpful and had good recommendations. Breakfast was good. Small social areas for a lot of people staying. Wouldn’t go out alone at night - or walk around the immediate area - Uber is best.

Loved my stay here! I wouldn’t hesitate of staying a bit longer if only the weather were a bit better. Nevertheless staff made me feel more than welcomed here, the room was comfy and I was able to socialize a bit in the evenings with some guests. Location is very convenient, close to Santa Tereza and Lapa. Breakfast was also good, filling for sure. I hope to be back at some point. Obrigado :)
