A localização é excepcional, perto da praia do Flamengo e do centro da cidade. Além disso, o metrô fica perto do hostel, o que facilita o acesso a todas as praias da zona sul. O café da manhã é muito bom. A acomodação transmite a sensação de estar em casa. As camas são confortáveis. Os funcionários são simpáticos, educados, empáticos, e profissionais.

Um dos melhores que me hospedei. Ambiente agradável e descontraído. Super perto da estação do metrô numa área do Rio que eu amo.🤩

Amei tudo!!!

Very good

I reserved a bed because my bus arrived in Rio at 5am and I wanted somewhere to go and be able to take a nap and clean up before taking a flight in the pm. It worked out well, someone was up to check me in and show me my bed without any fuss. The breakfast was very good, the staff helped me to organise some things and there was a friendly vibe. The location is also good, close to the metro, restaurants, supermarkets and a beach. I'll definitely stay there again. Another point for the privacy curtains around the beds.

Nice breakfast and great staff :)

Breakfast included (with pancakes! :)) and super nice staff Supermarket nearby Whatsapp group with all guest, which is super cool! Activities during the day (some payed, some free) Night life nearby (but dangerous to walk to)

I didn't find the location very good... I always felt unsafe in the zone (it was honestly a deal breaker for me). I was in Leblon the week before and I felt much safer. The bathroom wasn't very tidy, always flooded. The vibe of the hostel didn't match 100% mine, but it's a personal opinion.

A very cute place in an affordable price

The hostel has a very cozy atmosphere, it feels like a home with welcoming common areas. Breakfast was good and most of the staff was nice. It's a short walk / taxi drive from Lapa party area and you can take the metro to get to the beaches.

The only bad thing about this hostel is that they were fully booked and I had to find another place after one night.

One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed at…

The staff there where some of the great human beings. Myris, Diogo and FABIOOOOOO where so helpful and kind. One of the best hostels I have ever stayed at, made some mates for life and had some of the best parties ever. All organised by the hostel. Like many others discovery will always have a special place in my heart. Peace and love - Thorpy ❤️

Social hostel!

Went to celebrate the new year and the staff actually bought limited metro ticket for the whole hostel so...well done! Hostel was very social with good vibes. Bed was nice with curtains and personal plug.

There was no information given about the city during check in so you are left to figure out on your own. Toilets were limited. Bed arrangement was quite poor. I had to change bed twice during a 5 night stay and was told so only close to midnight. As such, I managed to misplace quite a sum of loose money in the midst of packing :(

Very good

Good vibe, nice common areas, located next to the metro.

The private rooms back onto the outside common area so if it’s a busy night you can hear everything and you lose your privacy if you open a window.

Very good hostel vibe, and breakfast good.

Out room were in the social area. Could have warned about this in description. The rooms in a more quiet part of hostal would be great. Could also include towels with private rooms.

Hostel is clean and staff were nice.

Our room was right beside the kitchen there was constant noise from 6am onwards. By 8am it felt like there was 20 people in our room with the noise levels.

Amazing Hostel with the greatest people!

They make such a big effort to offer an amazing buffet freshly made every morning. Coffee always available. The beds have curtains for more privacy which I value a lot. Also the whole house has such a good vibe, the staff is so friendly and is helping you with any problem that might occur. The place is very clean, not only the rooms and bathrooms but also the kitchen is constantly being cleaned. I also like that the guests are also more cautious with the place and keep everything clean as possible. You meet amazing people here - either travelers or the people that work here. You can make some amazing memories here. I love this place and it’s my second home now in Brazil!

Unfortunately the Wi-Fi doesn’t work very well from time to time. Although I couldn’t manage to work from there and have video calls.
