I had a tiny private room with an even tinier bathroom. Had I known how small and bare bones my accommodation would be I probably wouldn't have selected it for a 5 day stay. However, it was clean and within walking distance of the beach and other landmarks.

Horribly dirty rooms, avoid this place.
It was so dirty and smelled bad, different condition than in pictures. I was trying to cancel, but they refused. The worst experience in Brazil.

I asked the staff 5 times if my room would be shared, because the description wasn't clear. They never answered!!

Be aware this hostel is closing the kitchen at 10pm. I don't undestand tulejki is that to be honest as the kitchen area is at the ground floor where there is no dormitories.
Also the internet at the ground floor is very poor and has lags. The staff is aware of this but they never do anything about it.

Look elsewhere.
Absolutely not worth the money for a private room. No towels!! They don't give you a towel, you have to BUY one! Spent 5 days drying myself with a sheet! Lifted up the toilet seat and a pubic hair from the previous occupant greeted me. Bed not very comfortable, and needed the agility of spiderman to scale the awkwardly positioned ladder to get into it. Every morning on the climb down I felt like I was descending into the abyss! Room was as noisy as a dorm, in the landing and beside the bathroom, and breakfast was poor, flies on the fruit, no cover for it, and some insects crawling around the cups, milk ran out at 930 as well as the ham and cheese and that was it, no more put out, and they charge for this! Also, twice was told that breakfast wasn't included and twice had to show them my booking on hotels to show that it was. Housekeeping come daily but just to empty the toilet bin. Communal areas not great for meeting people and no activites or tours that I saw or was told about, so not much vibe. If you want a private room pay more for someplace else.

O quarto era limpo e arrumado todos os dias com muito carinho. O café da manhã é tranquilo, dá para se alimentar bem, Hotel com ótima localização. A equipe de atendimento que é grosseira, parece que sem vontade de trabalhar, dificuldade de dar informação, de ser educada e ordeira. De resto dá pra ficar bem no centro do Rio, bem perto da praia de Copacabana.

O ar fica em cima de uma das beliches, ou seja, ele fica extremamente gelado pra quem está em cima e não chega pra quem está em baixo, a configuração do próprio quarto não permite isso, teria que substituir por uma beliche menor ou cama de casal pra fazer sentido aquele quarto

Para quem busca boa localização com baixo preço
Ótima localização, tem tudo perto, farmácias, restaurantes, mercados, feira, metrô. Café da manhã é bom, porém o local realmente é para quem vai aberto a abrir mão de certas comidades como por exemplo: tamanho de quarto privativo e banheiro. Limpeza até existe, mas não é 100%, não tem elevador e a escada é estreita, se tem alguma dificuldade com isso nem tente. Atendimento é bom. Indico para quem não tem frescuras

HOSPEDAGEM TERRIVEL
Terrível, quarto que parece uma prisão , não tem ventilação , quarto com morfo. Qualquer cheiro na cozinha entra todo no quarto.
Cama no alto que não dá nem pra subir na escada. Escada super estreita. NÃO RECOMENDO NEM PARA O MEU INIMIGO.

O lugar é bom de boa localização é ótimo custo benefício! Mas é importante melhorar atendimento principalmente das moças da limpeza que são mt mal educadas e grossas. O Luís é boa pessoa mas tá sempre mal informado sobre estadia pagamentos e é meio grosso. Alguns funcionários novos precisam se informar mais tb e ter mais simpatia.precisa melhorar tb na manutenção dos quartos. Da última vez o chuveiro tava queimado e faltava tomada nas camas. Além de armários quebrados. Pq no mais o ambiente e agradável. Sugiro free tour e atividades de entretenimento dentro do hostel como caipirinha free pra juntar a galera. Isso além de trazer mais turistas tb faz a gente se sentir seguro e fazer boas amizades.
