    All good. Just if you want to stay more in the centre closer to the more famous thing and central metro lines it’s not the best!

    I was here during carnaval and it was a great place to have a “base”. A lot of space, good lockers, a lot of chill and common areas. It had restaurants and supermarkets super close. The staff was super nice and chill. Met many nice travelers to!!

    I would love for the rest of the staff to be better trained as Eduardo..he is super efficient.

    There's no provision for breakfast. Everyone carters for themselves. The kitchen is well equipped.

    I don't like the receptionist, lady. She's RACIST and very profiling. If you're a black lady going to this hostel, stay away from her. The most interesting thing is that she is BLACK as well 🤣. Very condescending rude and mean.

    I like the receptionist guy, but I can't remember the name. He's an amazing host, and I pray he prospers. I felt at home and loved

    Nothing really.

    The staff is amazing and courteous. The private room was big and really quiet and clean. The shower was really nice. The location is good - around 15 minutes on foot from Maracanã metro station, and quite beside the stadium.

    All the staff were incredibly lovely, helpful & professional. All facilities were modern & clean + aircon in the bedrooms. Common space by the pool was a perfect place to relax and meet people! The best experience & most comfortable stay I've ever had in a hostel. Couldn't be happier & more thankful!

    There wasn’t too many bathrooms. The location is nice and there is a lot of restaurants and stores near by, although the way to the beach and the city takes a while.

    Clean hostel with friendly staff. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything needed. The pool was nice and cleaned every morning. Also the showers and bathrooms were great. The hostel had friendly vibes and would definetly stay againz

    Stuff are very kind and helpful, the place is very clean, the location is great depends on what you're looking for (obviously if you want to spend most of your time by the beach - it's not ideal). Only good words to say

    A little far away from the center and you need to take bus to get to most attractions. A bit noise as the room facing the street. The bed wasn't very comfortable as it is a bit old.

    Very helpful staff. Very clean and spacious. Best quality equipment in the shared kitchen in all the hostels I have stayed in Brazil so far (>,2 months in Brazil).

    I left eggs in the fridge and one of the volunteers, a male took two eggs from mine and left two reais inside. A surprise he decided the price of my eggs and the delivery for him 😂. I guess we all wish to have a fridge to buy from at our own rate. Joke aside. The place is practical but has some improvement to do, like marks on the ground and the overall experience in the shower. One of the shower doesn't deliver cold water. The kitchen is nice. The pool too. Give it a night and see if they buy your eggs from you too hahahhahahah The air conditioning is working around 30% and turns off alone. The rooms are packed with beds. I would define it as a nice place interested in your money first at a 70% rate which really good as they put forward your needs for 30%. It's a personal view but chose a good hostal reality.

    The main receptionist is absolutely pro! The environment has a nice element thanks to him but...
