Pros: Amazing staff at this property! Very friendly and always up for some fun! Also they all speak some level of English which was nice. It’s more of a party hostel than a chill and work hostel. Also they have a bar and restaurant attached to the property which is convenient. The area is awesome. Ipanema seems to attract young and friendly folks from all over. Cons: the shower had zero water pressure, the restaurant isn’t always open and some of the other guests don’t respect specific quiet time which they have posted outside the rooms. All in all I would DEFINITELY come back for a party or two.

Overall, stay was good. The hostel is easy to find, a few minutes away from Ipanema beach. It is near to a lot of shops, restaurants and a market. There were cleaning ladies almost everyday yo clean the room. I liked the big drawers under the bed that can actually fit a check-in size luggage of 23kg, and you can lock it. The only downside is that the all-female room is next to the street so expect noise from vehicles and people who party all night. Also, there is no switch for the AC and you have to call reception to turn it on which is annoying because it gets really hot and humid in the middle of the night.

This listing is misleading because it said private bathroom. There was nothing about the listing that said it was one set of bunk beds in a room of lots of bunk beds. Please know that you may book thinking you have your own private room and bathroom, even though it says "private bathroom," but really it is private for 12 people/12 bunk beds. We needed a quick shower post-beach and before our flight, and there was a dude in the bathroom. Also, there are no towels. And you have to keep pushing the water on and there is only one temperature...it times out. Good for the environment for sure. Staff was pretty snarky and unhelpful. Make sure you have a lot of time on your hands. The lady at the counter said someone would show us our room after she helped a bunch of people...we didn't have this kind of time to wait around...especially since we would shortly discover there was someone in our "private" bathroom already using the shower.

I like the communal environment. Didn't like having to pay for towels and no soap.

Nice place, the location is perfect, its located so close to beach and its just one block from the metrostation. the people working there are awesome they speak english. the bar at the night is great place to meet people and get a bit drank everynigth ..

It is one of the best places I’ve stayed, an amazing atmosphere, the staff is very friendly and fun. They offer recommendations of what to do in RIO, they helped me with everything. It has a bar, where it is a good opportunity to meet other guests.

The hostel was amazing! Lovely staff, food and drinks and the location was in the best spot!

Overall it was a well planned out hostel. It was clean however, it was a big party atmosphere so in the mornings it was messy due to the other people in the room.

Great atmosphere and nice staff. The shared dorms were a very basic. Bathrooms in dorms were cleaned daily. The downside of the rooms was humidity. They fans in the room to help keep an air flow. Windows kept open didn't help since it was humid outside. Sheets were always damp. We stayed Mon-Sat and never had our sheets replaced and they smelled of mildew. The AC was only turned on certain hours of the day which was a bummer if you wanted to sleep past 8am. Lockers were nice and spacious for luggage. They offer free luggage storage after check out. The main hang out area needs more love and comfort. All chairs are wooden fold out, so it makes it hard to get out of the room and lounge like most hostels have. Wifi worked really well. Give 1 free drink each evening at the bar, nice touch! Breakfast option was delicious - good fruits, breads, drinks. Overall it is a hostel so it will not be perfect. I have much experience in various hostels in Rio and it isn't the worst, but not the best.

The hostel is new, and parts are still under construction, but it is very conveniently located near the beach and metro

Staff have an awful habit of walking into your room at anytime, unannounced with no knocking. The master key overturns your internal lock so we had staff walk in at 8pm (unannounced with no reason explained); 8:15am (unannounced maybe to clean the room) and 12pm (unannounced to show a third party around our room). We asked them to stop, but it continued during our stay. It wasn't just cleaners, it was receptionist as well.
