The hostel has everything, it far exceeded my expectations so I even went back a 2nd time during my trip. Helpful, friendly staff. Great facilities including bar, kitchen, co working space, chill out areas and a well equipped gym. The breakfast was also great. I hope they franchise this across the world - I would always stay in hostels if they were all this good :)

Very beautiful architecture, clean rooms and facilities, uncomplicated booking process with no prepayment (not typical for Brazil), beautiful views , facilities to have healthy home cooked food for a good price (not just burgers and pizzas), safety and security, and the most important the wonderful and welcoming staff. If you come here expecting a big party hostel with a lot of alcohol and testosterone fueled action , you will be disappointed. If you come here for a peaceful place to relax and get some quiet time away from the crowds you will be very happy.

Whilst the location, the breakfast, the common room, even the added perks such as a yoga room and a reading room are all excellent features to make this hostel a great one, what really sets it out is the staff who are all without exception incredible and dedicated and oh so nice! They have become more than providers of a service to a customer but rather friends to me.

Highly recommended! The best hostel I've been so far! The position is really good, only 5min away to the famous Escadaria Selaròn and really close to the Lapa neighborhood. The hostel itself is very clean. The kitchen and bathrooms get cleaned everyday and the sheets provided are immaculate and smell really good. The best thing is the garden and generally speaking the common areas. Everyone here is really friendly and the staff courtesy is yet to be found in other places. They will do anything to make you comfortable and accomodate your needs. Special thanks go to Andres, thank you for having made me feel like at home❤️

Really good vibe! The staff was very friendly and the location of the hostel was perfect. There are nice places to chill and there is a very good kitchen. Breakfast was amazing with fruits, bread, ham, cheese, juice, cake and pancakes. One of the better hostel breakfast I have had in Brazil. It's nice that the beds have curtains.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
