Our room was dirty - the tap kept running as it was broken. The price was out of order and the place didn't have anything great around - just a beach in front, a few bars including 1 gay club (off). Rio Vermelho is where you want to be to party - for cultural and food stuff stay in the... More

Great staff and atmosphere! Delicious breakfast, the best in Brazil. Highly recommended! More

This hostel is good located but it has a poor structure. The room hasn't window and there is only one key to each room. The bathroom hasn't lock. The power AC sockets didn't work, the DVD player and TV wasn't working... It is the worse hostel I've known ever. More

The room I stayed in was really not nice, there was no window (to outside), no lock on the bathroom, the fan we had on to keep us cool dried my throat out and gave me a cough. The staff were generally not very friendly or helpful. The location is OK but you would be better in the town. However... More

Overall the location and facilities of the hostel are good. Free comps, cool rooftop terrace. But you pay extra for the location (about 10$ more then Hi) and the rooms are pretty dinky and kinda dirty. The breafast is below avg for the price. The worst thing about the hostel is the bed bugs. I switched rooms a few hours... More

We had a private room, but it smelled bad and there were so many bed bugs/flees everywhere. The second night we changed rooms, but there were even more bugs. it was disgusting, every 5 minutes i would kill... More

The hostel has a fantastic location, perfect for experiencing Carnival. Apart from that the place is the pits. For $US90 per night I was in a crammed 10 bed dorm, no window and bed bugs everywhere. The room has been "cleaned" three times already to no affect... meaning we have to vacate it during the day and pack up all... More

First of all the most important: ca. 50 (!) flea bites over the whole body after the 2nd night. The breakfast was discusting: toast bread, but no toaster. No marmelade, fruits full of flies, fruit juce which was stretched heavily with water (bottled water or just from the tab?), cheese was ok. The double room was very basic, but ok... More

Staff try to help, but a lot of burocracy make it hard. Someone was stolen some days before my chek in.Take care of your stuff. Very good location and good price. More
