Quero me sentir no RJ não na Argentina

Duas atendentes argentinas grosseiras, enquanto eu trabalhava na área em comum, desligaram as luzes e colocaram o som no volume máximo… um lugar no Brasil com predominância da cultura da Argentina. Tanto na maior parte só música deles, a língua deles, respeito, admiro mas estou no RJ quero me sentir em Búzios. Além disso os banheiros precisam de mais cuidados. Muito sujos. E não tinha ar no meu quarto…

Férias em Búzios

O quarto era compartilhado com mais três hóspedes, eram duas beliches. O problema é que o quarto que eles escolheram para colocar essas duas beliche era muito pequeno, mal cabias as beliche. Entrar os 4 hóspedes no quarto era impossível. Tinha de entrar um por vez. Ponto negativo: quarto inapropriado para duas beliches. Ponto positivo: Bem localizado e próximo das ruas das pedras.

Muito bom, ótima localização e boa qualidade. Pensei que o café da manhã era incluso mas tem que pagar 17$ toda manhã, achei melhor ir no mercado (tem um bem pertinho) e comprar pães e ovos, carnes e um arroz, saiu bem mais barato.

Terrível

Disparado o pior hostel que já fiquei. Nao tem tomada perto da cama e as camas são todas abertas não tendo nenhuma cortina ou algo que possa dar mais privacidade e diminuir a claridade. No andar que eu estava vários quartos eram atendidos apenas por um banheiro. O ar condicionado em alguns dias só era ligado depois de muita insistência. Banheiro estava sempre alagado e sujo.

localizao muito boa, a poucos metros do ponto rodoviario da 1001, e a apenas alguns minutos da rua das pedras. Unico ponto negativo ao meu ver, é a questao das tomadas nos quartos, onde fiquei havia apenas uma regua proximo a porta para ser compartilhado com todos no quarto.

Um pouco decepcionante

Fui com uma expectativa alta devido ao Che lagarto ser uma rede, porém tive algumas decepções com o local e estrutura. O hostel não tem regra de horário, a música fica alta dia inteiro até bem tarde da noite, se vc quiser descansar a tarde ou dormir cedo para algum compromisso (trilhas, passeios..), é muito dificil dormir cedo, pois a musica na recepção é alta ate varar a madrugada. As camas são boas e o locker espaçoso, mas a iluminação do quarto é pessima, tem somente um espelho no banheiro, e em quarto compartilhado, principalmente feminino, acho isso absurdo, ter que esperar todo mundo usar o banheiro para fazer uma maquiagem por exemplo. Achei pouco ventilador nos quartos, e tem muitos mosquitos, ventilação parece que piora esse fato. Limpeza e instalações do banheiro deixa a desejar. Na recepção não tem secador de cabelo e ferro de passar disponíveis nem para aluguel (comum em hostel). O café não é servido no hostel, e o valor é alto, aconselho não fechar e tomar café na padaria na qual o proprio hostel tem parceria, e o preço sai mais em conta. A localização é boa, mas não é excelente. Acredito que pequenos pontos podem ser melhorados.

Bom, mas pode melhorar

Gosto muito da rede Che lagarto! O ambiente é descontraído e os funcionários muito prestativos. Algumas coisinhas poderiam ser melhores: falta tomada ao lado das camas e os dormitórios de 10 camas só tem um banheiro. O café da manhã é numa padaria fora do hostel tb e como estava chovendo, achei chato ter q sair pra ir lá. Mas em geral eu voltaria.
