I didn't like More Ipanema. From the very beginning, I felt there is no social vibe in here. People only go to the bar for free caipirinhas, and then they all disappear. If you travel by yourself, then I wouldn't recommend you staying here. The hostel is like a low-cost airline: they want to charge you for everything. Towels, blankets and even for taking a shower after checking out! (This was totally unbelievable for me: I've stayed +7n in here, I just want to take a shower before going to the airport!) Comfort: 0. Everything is impractical: beds are for kids, because you can't sit in there nor sleep well. There are no curtains, and you're not assigned any bed, so you have to choose yours as soon as you arrive. Also, you have to prepare your own bed with the sheets they give you. Mattress was hard as a stone. Social spaces: -1. There are no common spaces to meet people. Only the bar, with loud music and free caipirinhas for 30 min. Hot water: 10/10. Taking showers was the best thing! Even though the bathroom is not always clean, hot water was perfect. You don't have any soap to wash your hands, so it's a bit disgusting. Wi-Fi: 10/10. It worked perfectly! Anyway, there are no working spaces, s it's not a digital nomads hostel. No water dispenser. Volunteers: they do a great job! There's a WhatsApp group, but whenever you complain about something from the hostel, the admin writes a pm to kindly ask you to delete it. Amazing If I go to RJ again, I wouldn't stay here.

Stephane is greeting you with her best smile, making you feel like home. She also makes the best Caipirinha in Rio 😉. The location is perfect, next to the beach. I would recommend this place for anyone staying in Rio.

There is no real management behind this place. Their pictures are renderings. Once you arrive you will find a construction site. They will walk in your room as many times as needed without your knowledge, if they perform construction work they will leave the dirt behind and that's how you will realize. They sap my entire bed on me. AC units are off early in the morning until late at night regardless of what price or room you paid for. Front desk staff is really friendly but they are as lost as you as far as finding missing keys, AC, water heater, etc. Location is not as great either.It is very noisy and there is no insulation between walls so you will hear everything inside and outside 24/7. Some of my stuff went missing, there was no room service ever even though they did not stop doing construction inside my room. You could pay me to stay there again and I will kindly reject it. Just get another place where there is a system of check and balances. This property is a free for all. The Argentinian lady managing this is a liar and a scammer.

The hostel appear on the website as new. It is not. They had renovation works going on at the peak of time (carnival), all day long. I paid for breakfast and was told it was not included, that I had to pay 20 Reais to then be told a few days later that breakfast was free during carnival (scam! I paid for it and was not reimbursed). The rooms are not comfortable. The doors are all wanky. If you want a towel or a blanket or a lock you have to pay. You have to make your bed at the start and remove your bedsheets at the end. I paid 100+ dollars per night for a bed in a 6-bed dorm and this level of service… shocking.

False Advertise: Don't have a "restaurant" Meaning there is no breakfast. Underconstruction so it's pretty noisy during the day. Bars are pretty noisy during the night. Ear buds & Eyemasks are a must Bar is the only common place u have to work. There is No desk so u won't be able to use ur laptop properly (for long hours)
