We were a little disappointed with a few things and I want to mention them so that people will be informed before making a reservation with them. There were also good things and I will mention them too. The location is very good it is about 10mins walk from Copacabana Beach. Their beds are comfortable and the rooms are clean.... More

A truly dodgy hostel! They had their own currency, which means we paid much more than what was agreed on the online booking, we couldn't even discuss that. I personally phoned them in Brazil requesting a pick up (service offered by them) from the airport and did say there will be 4 adults with 4 medium sized bags. The driver... More

You pay as much as a hotel. Our room spelt like urine and it was so noisy until the early hours of the morning. Checked out after one night due to the poor state of the room, had to pay for 3 nights just to be able to leave. You may as well check into a hotel nearby extremelly unimpressed... More

We were then moved to the this hostel Anita Che Lagarto. It's a very boring hostel there were families staying there and it was not like... More

Che Lagarto Suites has the positive aspects of offering private rooms while being a hostel. The staff is helpful, the location is perfect (few blocks from Copacabana beach) and metro station, and breakfast is decent. However, the hostel loses points when it comes to cleaness. Rooms are not properly cleaned, with hairs and dust on the floor and the walls... More

This is a hostel with private rooms only, with or without bathroom, close to the subway and a few blocks away from the beach. The rooms are simple, just the double bed and a wardrobe. It's great for couples that stay out most of the time and need a place to sleep and cuddle at night!

Don´t get confused with the other Che Lagarto hostel at Copacobana. This one has private rooms only. Not close to beach. Staff were very accomodating. Linen is stained, more often than not shared and private showers do not work or are cold. We had to use the shower in the next room because ours was cold, but the shower in... More
