Wonderful staff. The place itself is very well located, but the bunkers are not very solid and are made from light wood (I was on the top one and all night waking up because every time the guest underneath me moved, the whole bed moved too). The communal shower is also very tight. Overall, budget friendly for backpackers who don't mind a certain degree of discomfort

I was only in Rio for two days and I was travelling alone as a woman. The hostel was great - very friendly staff and a cool vibe, walking distance from Ipanema beach and lots of nice restaurants and bars. The hostel's breakfast was fantastic!

Nice hostel near the beach

Everything as expected, given the price. It would be great if there was a coin/card operated laundry facility. Wi Fi only works in the lobby and pool area- this needs to be fixed.

Nice hostel close to the beach

Overall I had a good experience. Staff are friendly and very helpful. One thing I would suggest is a laundry room with coin or card operating washing/drying machines. I would rate the hostel 4-star if they do that.

Awesome Hostel

The staff were awesome and helpful. They made phone calls for reserving activities, were flexible with timing of events and helpful with suggestions. I met amazing people there and am overall happy with the hostel. Great summer experience! The beds could be a bit more comfy, which is the reason why I gave it a 3. Other than that it was great.

What is missing in the rating is the social interactions at the hotel which are of a very high level. This combined with its optimal vacation makes it a great hotel even for people's costumed to more luxury

Best hostel I could find in Rio

Met some of the most kind and fun people at the hostel. Receptionist, Gabi, was the absolute sweetest and so helpful! She even took a whole group of us to Pedra do Sal on her day off (original samba location), and met us at the hostel so we wouldn't get lost. Didn't actually go into the pool myself, but it was a nice atmosphere to chill by. Also, the hostel allows guests throughout the grounds before 10pm and afterwards in the front patio. They are just super relaxed and helpful in general. Thanks for the great stay!

Tive duas situações nesse viagem, uma que me deram uma cama e registraram outra, ao chegar no hostel todas as coisas minha que estavam em cima da cama sumiu, estavam guardadas na recepção, mas foi um susto. Segundo dia, ao retornar pro hostel a noite pra dormir, mesmo eu tendo deixado minhas coisas em cima da cama, tinha gente dormindo nela, a posição da recepção seria acordar a pessoa ( e todo o resto do quarto) pra retirar ela da cama. Acabei indo direto pro aeroporto, pois meu voo era cedo, achei bagunçado, com uma solução meio ??? não é o tipo de experiência que se quer viver num final de semana na praia. O local é de ótima localização, mas não foi uma estadia agradável
